Ask HN: How do you debug your rails applications?
Just wondering what the consensus is on the best tools for debugging rails apps.
- jeffy 17y agoI use the Netbeans IDE debugger. It can get hung and crash your rails app if you put breakpoints in certain places, but it's pretty good for simple debugging.
- jpterry 17y agoI also use Netbeans IDE. It works through a native gem and requires a specific version of the gem to work properly. Its a little funky, but I almost never need it.

- jrallison 17y agothe ruby-debug gem has always worked for me.
- seven 17y agoI use the ruby-debug gem. Quote from a co-worker: "If you need to use a debugger, your code is too complicated. :)"
- dan_manges 17y agoI use unit tests and puts statements to debug most of the time. It can be faster than stepping through an actual debugger.
