Is there a way to set an interval which checks whether

It is absolutely impossible for javascript to execute a test that will
determine whether other javascript in the same environment is
executing because javascript is single-threaded so if the other
javascript is executing the 'test' will not be, and if the test is
executing the subject of the 'test' cannot be.

or something similar?
