Debug mode
- Florian Rögner
There is the possibility to view all events that appeared in ATF SDK. These events might be useful for detection if something is misconfigured or in order to review the configuration. By default ATF SDK will log all error messages without a debug mode. If you wish to see all events that occurred in the SDK a debug mode needs to be enabled.
In order to enable the debug mode a atf_debug=true parameter needs to be passed to url e.g https://example.com?atf_debug=true
Once the debug parameter is passed, ATF SDK will log all events in the developer console. Following list shows only events which indicates that something has been misconfigured.
