Test Editor- Breakpoint should have option to “step into” AND “step over”

[Petra]

I am new to TA 7.0, but it seems that the debugger only has the option to “step over” which is mislabeled and is actually a “step into” function; where the code line at that breakpoint is executed. There are often times, depending on the outcome of the previous code steps executed, that when the breakpoint is reached the user may want to actually “step over” the breakpoint and not execute that line. Currently there is no dynamic way for the user to execute the code at the breakpoint (step into) or not execute and “step over”

Hi Petra,

Can you elaborate more on the suggestion. If possible can you provide certain examples which will help us understand your point in a better way.

Please pass this along to your developers they will know exactly what I’m referring to since every debugger has this function (and much more advance debugging options)

To see for your self, Enable the developer tools for excel. Once the developer option is added, click on the developer tab and select view code, under debug you will see many debugging options. I included a screenshot of the debug drop down list
