Time Travel to Right Before Error Occurs

Launch Debugger Directly From Failed Tests

sCrypt IDE v0.4.13 lets you launch a debugger that stops right at where sCrypt test fails. This will help developers to locate contract bugs tremendously.

Previously, when a test fails using the sCrypt testing framework, error message only shows where it fails in JavaScript/TypeScript code. If a user has to find out where it fails inside the sCrypt code, he has to print out debug arguments, copy and paste them into launch.json, which is a laborious and error-prone process.

Launch Debugger Right From a Failed sCrypt Test

In the latest IDE, when a test fails, there are two additional lines in the error message.

• Go to Source: it shows which line fails inside sCrypt code and also the last opcode executed. Right clicking on the link will take you directly to the offending line.
• Launch Debugger: Right clicking on the link will directly launch a debugger session, based on arguments in the test. The debugger will pause right before the error about to occur, allowing inspection of what caused the failure.

Happy debugging!
