* SUMMARY Backend should initiate timeline recordings on page navigations to ensure nothing is missed. * TEST <script> function foo() { bar(); } function bar() { var until = Date.now() + 5; while (Date.now() < until); console.log("after"); } foo(); </script> * STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Inspect test page 2. Show Timeline Tab 3. Select the Timelines you want (include at least Scripts) 4. Reload => Expected Timeline Recording data for foo/bar but there was none * NOTES - Frontend can inform the backend to enable/disable auto capturing - Frontend can inform the backend which instruments to enable/disable for auto capturing - This can be reused by console.profile/console.profileEnd as a programmatic way to start/stop the instruments from the backend

Created attachment 278478 [details] [PATCH] Proposed Fix Writing tests that reload or navigate the inspected page is currently extremely flakey, so I didn't attempt one yet.

Is this called when the frame navigates? Maybe add a comment or assert so it's easier to reason about. EDIT: I think the event listener should be this._provisionalLoadStarted, and then call into startAutoCapturing if we definitely want it to start.

Maybe setAutoCaptureInstruments should be doing that in the binding code anyway...

I don't think hitting a breakpoint on auto-capture would be a bad thing and we don't normally disable breakpoints for timeline recordings. This could, for example, cause probes or other breakpoint actions to be skipped when they are expected to be executed. We do disable breakpoints now when Timeline recording to give you high performance profiling. Given that we only auto-capture when the Timelines tab is shown, it is clear you are recording not trying to debug. See the UI we show in the Debugger tab's sidebar when you are recording in Timelines. Maybe we need similar UI for probes? >> Source/WebInspectorUI/UserInterface/Controllers/TimelineManager.js:664 >> + if (mainResource === this._autoCapturingMainResource) > > this member would make a lot more sense as this._mainResourceForAutoCapturing. As is, it's confusing whether it's a flag or storing an object. Agreed.

I was content with "enable the instruments we know about" here. So that future instruments wouldn't be problematic. But, I can do validation.
