BRU-4615

Fix #9113 And #5935

Description

Undo/Redo does not behave correctly in the Params Name, Params Value, and URL editors after switching between request tabs.

  • Cmd/Ctrl+Z stops working in the Params Name field.
  • Cmd/Ctrl+Z clears the entire value at once in the Params Value and URL fields instead of undoing changes incrementally.

Problem

Solves: BRU - #9113 And BRU - #5935

Fix

Preserve state across request tab switches for the Params and URL editors.

  • Persist and restore editor history when the editors are unmounted and remounted.
  • Use the full editor state so undo/redo history is preserved along with the editor state.
  • make the behavior consistent across

Walkthrough

SingleLineEditor now persists view state by docKey. Request-pane editors provide stable keys for URLs, assertions, query parameters, headers, and variables. Query-parameter and variable name fields now use SingleLineEditor.

Remove the trailing comma.

The JavaScript coding guideline prohibits trailing commas. Remove the comma after captureEditorState.

As per coding guidelines: “Do not use trailing commas.”

Hi @ArpanMondalGITHUB, two issues found while testing.

Assertions tab, Expr field: undo works within the same tab, but stops entirely after switching tabs and back.

  1. Go to the Assertions tab.
  2. Type something into an Expr field.
  3. Switch to another request tab, then switch back.
  4. Press Cmd+Z. Nothing happens.

Params Name field: typing multiple consecutive spaces doesn't preserve them in the Name field's display, they collapse to a single space visually. The URL bar shows the actual spacing correctly since it stays synced with the underlying value.

  1. Add a query param.
  2. In the Name field, type something with multiple spaces in a row, e.g. this is a test and myname is.
  3. Compare the Name field's display against the URL bar. The URL bar shows the full spacing, the Name field shows it collapsed.
