A.10 Debug Notes

This section contains information about debugging your project. The information in this section is to be used in conjunction with the explanations provided in Chapter 11. Debugging is a creative process, and it is done differently by each developer. This worksheet section is, therefore, only meant to be a summary. It is very likely that your team will need to maintain its own up-to-date bug list during project development. Table A-10 describes each field in the "Debug notes" section.
