Claim Text:
1. A method for capturing breakpoint information from a debuggee software process, the method comprising: receiving, at a processing device, a breakpoint request from a user computing device in communication with the processing device; generating, by the processing device, a new breakpoint condition based upon the breakpoint request received from the user computing device, the new breakpoint condition identifying a point in software code run by a debuggee service executing a collection of software processes on a distributed system; transmitting the new breakpoint condition from the processing device to debuglets of the debuggee service, each debuglet associated with a respective one of the software processes and in communication with the processing device, the new breakpoint condition causing each debuglet to translate the new breakpoint condition to a physical breakpoint condition set to the respective software process; when one of the software processes hits the physical breakpoint condition:
