Debug โ€” step through a replay

Click Debug (step through each event) to replay one step at a time. Trq pauses before each event; advance with Step over, jump ahead with Run to end, or Stop debug session. The toolbar shows paused at 4/12: click.

While debugging, the Inspector panel shows the element Trq is about to act on and its selector ladder, each rung graded:

  • stable (โœ“) โ€” aria/โ€ฆ, text/โ€ฆ, data-testid/data-test/data-cy/data-qa, or a clean id.
  • brittle (โš ) โ€” positional XPath or deep CSS.
  • dynamic (๐Ÿšซ) โ€” framework-generated ids (mat-โ€ฆ, ng-โ€ฆ, :r3:, numeric suffixes) that change between loads.

Debug โ€” step through a replay; the Inspector grades each selector stable, brittle, or dynamic

Use it to spot fragile selectors before they break.
