Set Citrix breakpoints
When the Citrix monitoring panel is enabled, you can define breakpoints in the test to pause the running of a user-input action. This capability is useful when you are debugging a Citrix test.
For the breakpoints to have any effect, the test must be running in a schedule with the Citrix monitoring panel enabled. See Enable and disabling the Citrix monitoring panel for more information.
Breakpoints can be defined on these user-input test elements: mouse actions, key actions, text inputs, and logoff elements. When a breakpoint is encountered, the test pauses before the user input element is run. To set breakpoints in a Citrix test:
- Open a Citrix test in the test editor and select a user input element.
- In the Test Element Details area, select Stop test execution on this element when the monitoring panel is enabled. Alternatively, you can right-click the user input element, and select Toggle Breakpoint.
- Add the test to a schedule and run the schedule with the monitoring dashboard enabled. During the run, the virtual user pauses at the breakpoint.
- When the test is paused, click Interact to perform manual actions inside the Citrix session or Step to run the test step by step.
- When you have finished, click Play to resume the test run. If there are multiple breakpoints in the test, the run resumes until the next breakpoint is encountered.
