Use this tag when referencing a debugging technique that can stop a program with variables and/or registers intact at a specific point.
This is very useful when making sure a program is progressing in the intended manner. Often a breakpoint will be set, then when it is either determined to be correct or the program is fixed in order to reach that point properly, then another breakpoint can be set further along in the code for the same reason.
In this way it is helpful for localizing software misbehavior and repair.
