Details

Affected versions

  • 74.0a1 (2020-01-30)

Affected platforms

  • macOS 10.14
  • Windows 10 x64
  • Ubuntu 18.04 x64

Preconditions

  • Go to about:config and set: devtools.debugger.features.async-live-stacks to true.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Launch Firefox.
  2. Navigate to: http://janodvarko.cz/tests/debugger/async-callstacks/
  3. Press F12 to open the devtools panel and select the "Debugger" tab.
  4. Right click on the "debugger" line (line 14) number and add a breakpoint.
  5. Press the "Click Me!" button in "Test Case #1" from the page opened in Step 2.

Expected result

  • The Call stack panel shouldn't be displayed in the side panel after clicking "Click Me!" button even when we already have a breakpoint added.

Actual result

  • The Call stack panel is displayed in the side panel after clicking "Click Me!" button even when we already have a breakpoint added.

I'm not sure this is correct. Why is it expected that the call stack panel would not be displayed?

The Call stack panel should always be displayed when program (JavaScript) execution is paused. So, the user can always see the path (ie function calls) that led to the point where the program currently is.

Closing as invalid (discussed on Slack)
