Overview

With Servoy,

...

it

...

is

...

possible

...

to

...

test

...

(and

...

debug

...

!)

...

your

...

applications

...

directly

...

from

...

the

...

development

...

environment.

...

This

...

includes

...

both

...

the

...

Smart

...

Client

...

and

...

the

...

Web

...

Client.

...

This

...

is

...

because

...

when

...

Servoy

...

Developer

...

is

...

started,

...

a

...

local

...

instance

...

of

...

the

...

Application

...

Server

...

is

...

also

...

started

...

in

...

the

...

background.

...

It

...

allows

...

two

...

client

...

connections

...

-

...

one

...

for

...

each

...

Smart

...

and

...

Web

...

Moreover,

...

as

...

you

...

make

...

changes

...

to

...

your

...

application,

...

Servoy

...

will

...

broadcast

...

those

...

changes

...

into

...

the

...

debug

...

clients

...

(both

...

smart

...

and

...

web),

...

allowing

...

you

...

to

...

see

...

the

...

changes

...

real-time,

...

test

...

and

...

debug

...

without

...

any

...

need

...

to

...

restart

...

the

...

client.

...

Note

Debugging browser applications is traditionally VERY difficult because logic is asynchronously divided between the client and the server. However, because Servoy executes all of your business logic server-side, you can test and debug browser applications directly from the IDE.
