Debugging Ajax

Developing Ajax applications is a lot of fun, up until things stop working. In addition to the general programming complexities, you need to deal with browser differences, JavaScript and framework idiosyncrasies. Alerts often help only to get our blood pressure high.

In this presentation we will take a two prong approach to addressing this issue. The first is a proactive step towards testing Ajax applications. Second, when bugs still manage to creep up, we will explore what tools can help us to fix those bugs and keep our cool at the same time.
