Question

what tools do you use for writing jquery code and testing/debugging your code?

Answer 1

The Firebug plugin for firefox is essential - it lets you:

• Debug your code (step into, out, etc)
• Set watch variables and expressions
• See contents of all requests and responses, as well as all content received
• Time to download each resource
• Inspect and modify the DOM, including viewing the DOM after it has been dynamically modified by JavaScript
• And much more!

There are also debuggers available for Internet Explorer and other browsers, but none are quite as powerful as firebug.

Depending on the language, there are other resources available for debugging server side code that come in quite handy, too. But that is another question...
