See the Zend PHP Debugger in Action
This five-minute demo provides a high-level overview of the Z-Ray interface. When you view it, you will explore the interface and see how you can use it to:
- Find weak spots in your PHP code.
- Inspect web server requests to quickly see issues that can be hindering performance or creating other issues.
- Drill down into requests and sub-requests to get detailed information including performance metrics for execution times and peak memory usage.
- Receive alerts about events and issues that you specify such as php code errors, response times that hit a specific threshold, or high memory usage.
- Analyze code trace information directly from the Z-Ray interface.
- Get detailed insights and metrics for database queries performed by requests.
- Gain detailed information about the PHP functions called by requests, including names, function groups, name spaces, and super globals.
- Debug other PHP-based applications and frameworks using ready-to-go plugins for technologies such as Magento, Drupal, Symfony, and Zend Framework — as well as others using our API.
- Enable three access modes for use with your web server, including enabled, secured, and disabled.
Use the Zend PHP Debugger on Other Platforms
Z-Ray has numerous extensions and plugins, so that you can seamlessly debug your code on other open source, PHP-based platforms as well, including Magento, Word Press, Drupal, and Laminas.
You can also use the Z-Ray Extensibility API to build an extension to other PHP apps, so you can improve your debugging and code testing.
Go to the Zend Gallery to see your Z-Ray plugin and extension options.
