I can reproduce this on recent Dev Edition / Aurora channel builds (e.g. 52.0a2 build id 20161217004004); apparently there is no way to add watches in the new debugger: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Debugger/How_to/Examine,_modify,_and_watch_variables It seems from poking around that watches are implemented but are turned off behind a feature flag pending some UI tweaks: https://github.com/devtools-html/debugger.html/issues/916 Clearly this should block removing the old debugger (bug 1314057).

It looks like this was already fixed in https://github.com/devtools-html/debugger.html/issues/1596. James, can you tell when those changes will be merged into mozilla-central? Sebastian

The next land of the new debugger in Nightly will include Watch Expressions.

I though so. The question was rather when that land will happen. :-) I assume the last one was several months ago. Sebastian
