Extra debugging and developer tools #657

Open brollb opened 6 years ago

brollb commented 6 years ago

There are a host of additional capabilities which would help development (particularly wrt stability). Some ideas include:

monkey testing (automatic disconnection of websocket connection, etc, to simulate poor network capabilities)
fuzz testing the UI
Shrinking utilities when debugging a replay from a bug report

Might be worth looking into including something like https://github.com/jmoenig/Snap--Build-Your-Own-Blocks/pull/2064 for block developers. His existing code needs a slight change to run on NetsBlox (and it probably needs some tweaking) but it's a neat concept.

It might be good to include it like src/browser/test/rpc/testing-blocks.xml and use it the same way we use that
