IE9 console patch fails: console.log has no apply method

[rigeroso]

IE9's console.log returns typeof "object" and does not have an apply method. That causes the console patch to fail:

    // patch the console
    (function(window, tc) {
      var console = window.console = window.console || {log: function() {}};
      var browserConsoleLog = console.log;

      console.log = function() {
        tc.info({dump: Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments, 0)});
        return browserConsoleLog.apply(console, arguments);
      };
    })(window, window.__testacular__);

IE's console object is only available, when the dev Tools are open.

What version are you using? The lastest canary build (0.5.9) may address this.

Nope, I don't think the change in 0.5.9 fixed this issue.

I guess the issue is only if you have the console open (as IE does not have window.console defined otherwise). Then, we try to call .apply() on it. And IE is super stupid and does not have it. There's a workaround for it (call Function.prototype.apply instead). If it really bothers you, send a PR.
