Is there any way to debug apps over Wi-Fi or bluetooth? [Please note that the device is not connected via USB]

Question

For some reason (I don't know what), my phone is not getting connected over USB for debugging purposes.

I have checked that the device drivers are properly installed and the USB debugging option inside phone settings is checked.

Due to this, I am facing difficulties in debugging apps on device. I always have to export the apk and install it in my phone and do a sort of black box testing.

Is there any way that I could debug apps over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth...?

NOTE : I am using an android phone with KitKat 4.4.2 installed.
