Debugging in OutSystems Flashcards
In OutSystems, breakpoints can be added to which of the following elements?
A. Logic Flows
B. Screen Widgets
C. Data Structures
D. Variables
A. Logic Flows
During debugging, what does the “Step Over” command do?
A. Executes the next line of code, stepping into any sub-actions.
B. Executes the next line of code, without stepping into any sub-actions.
C. Stops the debugger and closes the browser window.
D. Executes the entire action flow without stopping.
B. Executes the next line of code, without stepping into any sub-actions.
What is the purpose of the “Break on all exceptions” option in the debugger?
A. It enables debugging of exceptions caught in a Try-Catch block.
B. It stops the application whenever an exception is raised, regardless of whether it is caught.
C. It disables all breakpoints in the current module.
D. It restarts the debugging session from the beginning.
B. It stops the application whenever an exception is raised, regardless of whether it is caught.
Which of the following is NOT a valid tab in the OutSystems debugger?
A. In Use
B. Local Variables
C. Screen Widgets
D. Action Parameters
D. Action Parameters
When using breakpoints in a consumer module, why might the debugger not stop on a breakpoint in the producer module?
A. The producer module’s Entry Module property is not set to the consumer module.
B. The debugger is not started on the producer module.
C. The producer module is not running in the same environment as the consumer module.
D. The consumer module’s Entry Module property is not set to the producer module.
A. The producer module’s Entry Module property is not set to the consumer module.
What is the benefit of defining “Watches” for specific variables during debugging?
A. It allows you to view the value of a variable even when execution is outside its scope.
B. It allows you to change the value of a variable during debugging.
C. It allows you to set a breakpoint on any line of code that uses the watched variable.
D. It allows you to automatically log the value of the watched variable to a file.
A. It allows you to view the value of a variable even when execution is outside its scope.
How can you differentiate between client-side and server-side breakpoints in OutSystems?
A. Client-side breakpoints are blue, while server-side breakpoints are red.
B. Client-side breakpoints are in the Logic Flow, while server-side breakpoints are in the Action.
C. Client-side breakpoints can be removed at any time, while server-side breakpoints cannot.
D. The debugger automatically indicates whether the breakpoint is client-side or server-side.
D. The debugger automatically indicates whether the breakpoint is client-side or server-side.
What is the difference between the “Step Over” and “Step Into” commands?
A. “Step Over” executes the next line of code, while “Step Into” executes the entire action.
B. “Step Over” executes the next line of code, while “Step Into” steps into any sub-actions.
C. “Step Over” steps into any sub-actions, while “Step Into” executes the next line of code.
D. There is no difference between the two commands.
B. “Step Over” executes the next line of code, while “Step Into” steps into any sub-actions.
When debugging a complex application with multiple modules, how can you effectively track execution flow?
A. By adding breakpoints in every module.
B. By using the “Call Stack” window in the debugger to see the chain of calls.
C. By using the “Variables” window to view the values of all variables in all modules.
D. By using the “Console” window to view the logs generated by each module.
B. By using the “Call Stack” window in the debugger to see the chain of calls.
What is the recommended approach to debugging an application with errors in multiple modules?
A. Focus on the module where the error is most visible.
B. Fix errors one at a time, starting with the module where the error occurred.
C. Analyze all modules involved and identify the root cause of the errors.
D. Re-run the application to see if the errors re-occur.
C. Analyze all modules involved and identify the root cause of the errors.

B
In OutSystems, which action allows you to inspect variables during debugging?

B) Breakpoint
C) Watches
D) Suspend Debugging
C
While debugging in OutSystems, where do you inspect the local variables of a specific logic flow?
A) In the In Use tab
B) In the Widgets tab
C) In the Local tab
D) In the Screen Variables tab
A
What happens when you click Continue Request during debugging in OutSystems?
A) The debugger closes immediately
B) The request continues until the next breakpoint or until the request is completed
C) The request is aborted
D) The current breakpoint is deleted
B
