Product Overview
§ CA InterTest and CA SymDump helps
application programmers by providing both
interactive debugging and fault analysis
reports on failing applications.
§ Source level support for COBOL, PL/I, and
Assembler enables application programmers
to diagnose and resolve problems more
easily using their own source code.
§ Debugging and reporting is available from
TSO/ISPF or CICS, in batch or from a modern
Eclipse-based user interface delivered as
either a standalone (RCP) application or as a
plug-in to Eclipse or Eclipse-based IDEs.
