User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open the devtools debugger
  2. Pause JS with F8
  3. Close and reopen the devtools
  4. Attempt to unpause

Actual results:

The devtools debugger forgets the earlier state after reopening in the same tab. This is not unique to the debugger, the inspector does this as well (tracked changes gone).

Expected results:

The devtools should either:

  1. Detect that JS execution has been paused on reopening, or
  2. Unpause the page when closing the debugger.

Browser is Firefox Nightly 70.0a1 2019-07-17 on Debian Testing 11 x86_64 (privacy.resistFingerprinting causes incorrect UA above).

there is a patch for this on the bug that was closed: 1567210

Should that one have been closed before it was reviewed?

I'm a bit confused, i see this as a dupe. Would you like to keep this open?
