Implementing and Testing Analytics in Web apps

• Adding Logging (including Analytics) to a Web App *

Used to be Hard! First let's DEBUG by adding console.trace() to know which function is called at a particular spot in codebase Example:

  var boom = function boom() {
  console.trace();
  }, flash = function flash(){
  boom();
  };

flash();

Notice the console.log of your browser has more info about the mechanism of the code
