Enable or disable debug mode

» debug on
true

» debug off
false

Debug mode can be either enabled (true) or disabled (false):

» debug
false

Detail

Enable and Disable

When enabling or disabling debug mode, because the parameter is a murex boolean type, it means you can use other boolean terms. eg

# enable debugging
» debug 1
» debug on
» debug yes
» debug true

# disable debugging
» debug 0
» debug off
» debug no
» debug false

It is also worth noting that the debugging information needs to be written into the Go source code rather than in Murex’s shell scripting language. If you require debugging those processes then please use Murex’s test framework

Generating a Panic

For testing purposes, you might want to force Murex to crash. You can do this via:

debug panic
