Debugging of Data Set Scripts (Dataset Based)

The following debugging mechanism can be used for Data Set scripts and Data collector scripts even if no Stages Server command line access is available.

Instructions

1. Add a results column with the name 'debug' to your Data Set

2. Add the following javascript function to your Data Set script

function debug(str) {
 dataset.setColumnValue("debug",str);
 dataset.storeResultRow();
}

3. Use the function debug(“any kind of information”) ; in your Data Set script to print your information.

This function call will generate a new row in the Data Set output. For production, you have to remove the debugging or you can filter them in the Data Set.
