Question

For example, Id like to examine the variable called ‘test’.

(function() {
    var test = function(){alert("hello");};
    test();
})();   

Is adding breakpoints the only way to do this, or is there some ninja-foo specific to [chrome | javascript | developer tools]?

Answer 1

(function() {
  var test = function(){alert("hello");};
  debugger;
  test();
})();
