Details

The test added in bug 1754407 (testGarbageCollectedSourceTextContent) highlights that the text content of sources that have been cleared before opening DevTools can be wrong.

This is probably an edge case as it requires having a script whose content changes while keeping the exact same URL. And this is an issue that only reproduces when opening DevTools after having loaded/reloaded the page.

STR:

  • open a page with same simple <script src="source.js"> tag
  • force a GC
  • open DevTools
  • open source.js in the debugger

AR: if the http server deliver a different content for source.js, you will see a content different from the one that runs in the page.
ER: you should see the source content that was served when loading the page
