Execute code in webstorm while debugging

Question

I am using webstorm 7.x and google chrome + the IDE chrome debbuging plugin.

I am able to debug my unit test.

When I have set a break on a certain line of code I would like to open a window where I can execute code.

How can I do this in webstorm?

Answer 1

You can use 'Evaluate expression' (Alt+F8) for this. We plan to make debugger console interactive in the next WebStorm version - please vote for WEB-1171 to be notified on any progress
