Debugger

[Knud Sørensen]

You were wondering if others where missing good debugger support.
With good unit testing your dramatic reduce the use of a debugger.
That might be why others don't need it.

I prefers unit test over debugger session 
because unit test you can keep while debugger session 
is wasted time if you make changes to your code at a later date.
