it should note in the console all the tracking points we want

instrument the prototype to collect data in the browsers local storage, basically providing it as a fake backend. This directly refers to my revised KPIs for the two workflows.

Data Connection
Total_post_creation_time: the prototype tracks the exact time in seconds from the moment the user enters the dashboard until they've successfully clicked the submit button. This is a great way to measure efficiency.
Form_adherance: I have adjusted from my previous intention of a human observer tracking the users ability to post acceptable content, and instead the prototype now logs an error event if the user submits malformed or empty parts of the post.
Unanswered_filter_interaction_time: Regarding the search workflow, another timer instance measures how long it takes for the user to locate and click a result (fake result at that).
