Will this pref ON the console only in nightly, or will it ride the trains too?
What are the missing features, bugs that must be fixed, perf regressions that must be addressed before this rides the trains?
This is only going to Pref the console on in Nightly. We will make an assessment from there about when it can ride the trains.

I'm planning to send out an email with this information, too, but here are the features that people might notice are missing.

In progress:

1. console.table (I'd say 50% chance it's resolved before we pref on)
2. some network message features (currently in progress)
3. some context menu features (e.g. save as global, this may be done before we pref on)

Backlog:
1. console.group
2. custom css for console messages
3. text searching is limited
4. the learn more link

I think that covers what people are likely to pick up on. There are other bugs and missing features which we are tracking. For example, reps don't currently handle Maps (so this is a bug in debugger and DOM panel as well). I'm also going through the current console's tests to see if we've missed features and potential bugs. Unfortunately we can't run many of these tests against the current frontend because the tests relied to heavily on an architecture that we didn't want to replicate. That work will continue after we've turned it on in nightly.

As far as performance regressions go, we don't have good data on that yet. Brian tried a Talos run, but Talos is not currently working with the new front end. Brian plans to address this, and we have that as one of the blockers for turning on in nightly.
New try push that makes jsterm.execute return the resulting dom node which should fix some tests: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=0b5e8263c352

I hope this patch should fix the jsterm.execute test failures.  Here's a try push: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=1d2fa38543da2adc871a94f7739afc55a212be65

Backout by philringnalda@gmail.com:
https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/c7d62e6d052c
Backed out changeset ad324639bfae for slowing down debugger tests enough to make their Linux32 debug test chunks exceed the 80 minute limit
Backed out the pref flip in https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/c7d62e6d052c5d2638b08d480a720254ea09ff2d

You have to look at it with whatever the opposite of rose-colored glasses is, orange-colored glasses maybe, but the linux32 debug in https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=fx-team&group_state=expanded&filter-searchStr=linux%20debug%20devtools&tochange=ad324639bfaeba6d7be3b732295b6a27d0c54e0a&fromchange=47615f092e09d8d37d883ca72e35891b242a5d4a tells why. Debugger tests are basically permaorange with bug 1304778, that was the base state, but then this landing made them even slower, so that entirely too often they run over the 80 minute maximum time for the chunk.
Status: RESOLVED → REOPENED
Resolution: FIXED → ---
Target Milestone: Firefox 52 → ---
Oh, and I keep forgetting, but the slowdown also ran Win7 debug over the maxtime several times, it's just a lot easier to miss because it wasn't as frequent and harness bugs make a maxtime exceeded (which kills the entire run before it finishes, and is thus kind of a big deal) orange instead of the red it's supposed to be.
Sorry about that, looking into it
I have a promising looking try push that incorporates my change in bug 1304778: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=db68ac1694e1

This snippet used to work (data was not empty) before this change, doesn't work anymore now (data is empty).

Setting `devtools.webconsole.new-frontend-enabled` to false fixes the issue.

I'm removing dev-doc-needed from this bug because we should document the new console frontend when it lands in Dev Edition, not Nightly.
