Starting Debugging

🔗 Original page — Source of this material


Starting from version 5 of ZennoPoster, the ability to record and debug a project in parallel has been implemented.

From the Beginning​

To start the project from the beginning (just like when launching a new project in ZennoPoster), click the corresponding button [1]. This will generate a new profile and new browser data based on ❗→ these settings.

Step by Step​

When you start debugging, you'll be offered the option to run the project step by step. In this mode, each subsequent action will only be executed after you click button [2]. If you decline the step-by-step run, the template will be executed automatically to the end or until the next breakpoint (which you can set by right-clicking any action).

You can switch between these two modes (step-by-step and to the breakpoint) during debugging by alternately using buttons [2] and [3].

From the Cursor​

By placing the cursor on any of the actions, you can start running the template from the selected step, either in the [2] step-by-step mode or in [3] mode.

This is very convenient when debugging parts of the template where errors occur: you can change the action settings and re-test their operation.

Profile Regeneration​

While running the template, you can modify or completely regenerate the identity or browser profile values using the appropriate tools marked with the number [5]. This is handy if you want to test how a site works with a different User Agent, for example.
