How to set debug breakpoints in Test Window?

[Marc Bisping]

Hello,

I want to set breakpoints in the Test Window as described in the manual by clicking in the left line of the editor but the breakpoint-icon (red cross in yellow circle) does not appear.

I do can set/delete bookmarks.

How can I set the breakpoint in the Test Window?

The Program Window works correctly.

Regards,
Marc

Perhaps you are trying to set a breakpoint in the anonymous PL/SQL Block of the Test Script? You can only set breakpoints in stored program units, compiled in the database. In the anonymous PL/SQL Block of the Test Script, this is unfortunately not possible. You can create a simple "debug" stored procedure that can act as a placeholder for the anonymous PL/SQL that you want to debug, and create a standard test script to run it. This way you can make the process a little bit more efficient.
