Key Benefits
- Line by line examination of the code while executing stored units
- Set individual breakpoints
- Post mortem picture makes tracking errors easy
- Backwards debugging through the post mortem picture
- Stack trace and variable value display
The necessity to test the code is not questioned but the issue is rather what tools do you have available to test and debug your software. The AlligatorSQL debugger supports interactive checking of PL/SQL procedures and functions, trigger and packages stepping through every single line of code.
Before starting the debugger breakpoints define the positions, where the debugger will interrupt the execution for examination. When interrupted, the debugger displays all necessary information about the ongoing process, stack trace, local and global variable values and details about the set breakpoints. Going through your code step by step and examining variable values is always the best and the easiest way to find bugs. The debugger can be stopped at any time during execution.
In addition, the AlligatorSQL debugger delivers another absolute power feature. During program execution a complete protocol of the debugger is built. If the program exits, due to exceptions or memory access violations, the program execution can be rerun step by step once again to automatically reproduce the situation, which lead to this abortion. Stepping backwards in the debugger is another feature relying on this protocol. These features are the ultimate gain and with this information any cause of a problem will be tracked down easily within seconds.
