Let’s be real—debugging can be a bit tedious, but here’s how I tackle it and keep things interesting:
- Reproduce the Issue: First thing—make it happen again. If I can’t see the bug, I can’t fix it! (Though sometimes it’s tricky because it won’t show up in lower environments—thanks to data differences. ??)
- Check the Logs: Logs are my first stop. They usually give me a good hint about what went wrong and where.
- Fire Up the Debugger: Breakpoints are lifesavers! I walk through the code step by step and check variables to see where things go off track.
- Isolate the Problem: If it’s not obvious, I start stripping things down—focus on one part of the code at a time until I find the problem.
- Follow the Stack Trace: When errors hit, the stack trace is gold. It usually points me to the spot where things broke. (Though sometimes, I’m the one who caused the mess ??)
Debugging is like solving a mystery—except you get to be the detective every time! ???♂??
