How to open the Safari console

Safari's console is in the Web Inspector. It is off until you enable the developer features.

1. Safari → Settings → Advanced.
2. Turn on Show features for web developers. Older Safari labels this Show Develop menu in menu bar.
3. Develop → Show Web Inspector. The Console tab is the console. Option-Command-C opens it when the Develop menu is available.

Reload the page. Errors, warnings, and console.log output land in that tab. The Network tab is the request list for the same page.

That is a tool you drive by hand, in Safari, against the tab you have open. It is the right tool for a bug that only happens in Safari.

What Monito records instead

Monito runs Chromium. It does not run Safari, Firefox, or a browser matrix. A check will not reproduce a Safari-only bug, and it will not open Safari's console.

What a check does record is the console of its own run: the messages from the Chromium page it drove, plus screenshots and network requests (method, URL, status). The run ends Passed, Failed, or Error. Error means the check could not verify the scenario. The report is the evidence for that run, not a recording of a visitor.

Sign up and run one scenario, or use the check command. For the Safari-only case, stay in Web Inspector.
