1. Using Breakpoints
Breakpoints are essential for pausing execution at specific lines of code.
- Set breakpoints in your code editor to inspect variables and program flow.
- Use conditional breakpoints to trigger pauses based on specific criteria.
- Refer to our [Best Practices Guide](/Documentation/en/Developer/Debugging/Best_Practices) for advanced tips.
2. Logging Debug Information
Logging helps track the state of your application during runtime.
- Add `console.log()` or `print()` statements to output variable values.
- Use logging levels (e.g., debug, info, error) to organize output.
- Check out our [Logging Tools](/Documentation/en/Developer/Debugging/Tools) for more options.
3. Unit Testing
Automated tests can identify issues early in development.
- Frameworks like Jest or PyTest simplify test creation.
- Write test cases for individual functions or modules.
- Explore our [Testing Documentation](/Documentation/en/Developer/Testing/Overview) for deeper insights.
4. Debugging Tools
Leverage specialized tools for complex problems.
- Use debuggers like Chrome DevTools or GDB.
- Monitor network requests with tools like Postman or Wireshark.
- Learn more about [Debugging Techniques](/Documentation/en/Developer/Debugging/Techniques) here.
5. Code Review & Pair Programming
Collaborative debugging can uncover hidden issues.
- Share code with peers for fresh perspectives.
- Pair programming allows real-time problem-solving.
- Visit our [Collaboration Guide](/Documentation/en/Developer/Collaboration) for strategies.
Debugging is a critical skill—keep practicing and stay curious! 🚀🔧
