If you've been programming for even just a little bit, you've undoubtedly executed an infinite loop by mistake. Chrome 67, released in April 2018, added the ability to stop an infinite loop in DevTools. Here's how.
- Open DevTools.
- Open the Sources panel.
- Click Pause. The button changes to Resume Script Execution.
- Click and hold Resume Script Execution. Then choose Stop Current JavaScript Call.
