Bookmarks

Displays all anchors (bookmarks) placed on a specific line of code.

Breakpoints

Displays all breakpoints (enabled and disabled) that are set in the vertical ruler of the Program Listing area.

Displays a list of the called subprograms in a load module based on the current breakpoint. This is a CICS only view.

Console

Use views to navigate a hierarchy of information (such as variable values), show breakpoints, bookmarks, console output, and various other activities.

CA InterTest saves any changes you make in a view across instances of the GUI.

Each view has a close button next to its name that lets you close the view. The following example displays the Breakpoints view tab with the close button.

Views also have their own toolbars and pop-up menus that contain actions you can perform that are specific to the view.

The following example displays the toolbar of the Breakpoints view with buttons for actions on the toolbar's right side:

Note: All views have minimize and maximize buttons on their toolbars.

You can perform the following actions with the buttons on the Bookmark's toolbar, as described in the following table:
