Abstract

A method, computer program product and/or system for pre-fetching disassembly code. A breakpoint is set within an application under test (AUT). Setting of the breakpoint triggers pre-fetching of disassembly code associated with the breakpoint. The pre-fetched disassembly code is retained in a store local to a debug analysis system. When runtime processing of the AUT reaches the breakpoint, the debug analysis system retrieves the disassembly code from the local store.
