Overview

HTTP Record and Replay is a mechanism to enable us to replay the HTTP/JS traffic between a webserver and a client browser.

• We need the ability to record and replay the sequence of content/scripts to capture hard to reproduce crashes
• Provide a means for users to "capture" an invalid action/bug and serialize it into bugzilla

Goals

• Capture the exact content/script transferring between the client and the server to create a replayable object of the page load and interaction from the client browser to the server

Non-goals

• We need to define exactly what we will capture and replay, I don't think we can/need to capture everything.

Deadline/Deliverables

• None yet

ATeam

• TBD

Dependencies

• TBD

Major Tasks

• Investigate js bench to see how far that gets us toward this goal.
• Design how much we need to capture
• Ascertain how effective we'll be at using this to capture flash crashes (one of the primary use cases is to capture flash crashes caused by rotating banner ads).
