- API implemented?
Jresig Added a bunch of new methods to Fireunit, ported the full set of old, manual, command line tests to the automatic suite.
NetPanel
Honza's created 5 unit tests for net panel. Concept is working. Will send email for final confirmation to Jresig to discuss API and integration.
Buglist Nominations for Firefox 3.1 / Firebug 1.4
(taken from User:Rcampbell#Firebug-related Firefox Bugs - updates will go there)
- Events
- bug 449198 http-on-examine-response isn't fired when a response comes from the cache
- AJAX performance
- bug 379410 debugger script detection using parent JSScript* (morph for jsd) would reduce the number of script-creation calls (the most expensive ones) by two orders of magnitude. promote need some information
- bug 449454 [jsd] Add frame argument to every jsd callback, eg jsdIScriptHook would avoid taking a breakpoint for every jsdIScript created easy fix for firefox?
- bug 415008 eval Performance Regression (morph to implement CRC32) — would accelerate the common case for eval() firebug-side
- tab-based debugging (focus on one window). different people from above, need to poll eng
- bug 342715 Need an API to allow extensions to hook "document load started" events would eliminate weird code in tabWatcher.
- bug 449458 (jsd) Extend jsdIFilter coverage to include jsdIScriptHook would reduce overhead of jsd on pages you are not debugging.
- bug 228205 Redesign nsIConsoleService and related APIs — would improve error reporting accuracy and speed.
- error messages
- bug 228205 Redesign nsIConsoleService and related APIs — should give stack traces on all errors.
- bug 445355 Exception... "Component is not available" provides inadequate information — maybe we would know what these mean.
UI Experimentation
- cbartley's been working on relocating the tabs to the bottom of the screen. Expect a blog post soon.
