Abstract

In an approach for debugging and simulating application runtime execution, a processor loads source code and logs into a debug tool. A processor generates log debug information including a log map, a log variable cross reference table, and a method call stack tree. A processor determines a plurality of log blocks based on log context in the logs and the method call stack tree. A processor maps the source code to the logs for each log block. A processor suggests a starting point and a breakpoint based on the log variable cross reference table and the log blocks. A processor compares a source code variable value to a log variable value and a source code execution path to a log execution path based on the mapping set between the source code and the logs. A processor simulates the source code variable value with the log variable value.
