Debugging in Visual Studio Code using SuiteCloud CLI for Node.js

If you are using SuiteCloud CLI for Node.js integrated in Visual Studio Code, you can debug your test files in the IDE.

For more information about unit testing in SuiteCloud projects, see SuiteCloud Unit Testing in GitHub.

To debug in Visual Studio Code using SuiteCloud CLI for Node.js

Create a JSON file in the .vscode folder with the following code:

                {
      "version": "0.2.0",
      "configurations": [
         {
        "type": "node",
        "request": "launch",
        "name": "Debug Jest Tests",
        "skipFiles": ["<node_internals>/**"],
         "args": ["--runInBand", "--config=${workspaceFolder}\\jest.config.js"],
        "console": "integratedTerminal",
        "program": "${workspaceFolder}\\node_modules\\jest\\bin\\jest"
        }
      ]
}

Note:

This example works in Windows. If you use Unix, you only need to adjust the paths syntax.

Save it as launch.json.
Launch Visual Studio Code, and open the test file corresponding to the file you want to debug.
Add a breakpoint in a line of your test file, and press the button.
