Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Pega Robotics System Exact Extract:
When debugging automations in Pega Robot Studio, breakpoints are used to pause execution at specific points in an automation to inspect data and control flow. Before deploying or packaging a robotic solution, it is recommended to remove or clear all breakpoints to ensure that the production build executes uninterrupted.
According to the Pega Robotics System Design and Implementation Guide, section “Debugging Automations and Managing Breakpoints”:
“Breakpoints can be added, enabled, disabled, or deleted directly from the automation design surface or from the Debugging Tools window.
To remove breakpoints, developers can:
Right-click a breakpoint in the automation and select Remove Breakpoint.
Clear all breakpoints globally from the Breakpoints tab within the Debugging Tools window.
Breakpoints are maintained per automation and persist between sessions until manually removed or cleared.”
Detailed Reasoning:
A. Clear all automation breakpoints in the Breakpoints tab of the Debugging tools window.
Correct. This is the global method to remove all existing breakpoints across multiple automations at once.
The Breakpoints tab under Debug → Windows → Breakpoints lists every active breakpoint and includes the Clear All option to delete them.
B. Right-click a breakpoint in an automation, and then select Remove Breakpoint.
Correct. This is the direct method for deleting an individual breakpoint from within a specific automation.
C. Use the hot keys to remove each automation link that includes a breakpoint.
D. Right-click an automation on the automation surface, and then select Delete all breakpoints.
Incorrect. There is no such option available at the automation (background surface) level. Breakpoints are only removable individually or through the Breakpoints tab.
E. Click a breakpoint in an automation, and then press the Delete key.
Incorrect. The Delete key removes automation components, not debugging breakpoints.
Final Correct Answers:
A. Clear all automation breakpoints in the Breakpoints tab of the Debugging tools window.
B. Right-click a breakpoint in an automation, and then select Remove Breakpoint.
