Course Description
Do you get frustrated when you run into errors in your code? Do you spend countless hours staring at your computer only to find that you made a small oversight that broke your code? This course will teach you tips, tricks, and techniques that will help you to approach debugging in a strategic manner. No more guess and check or random deletion of buggy parts of code. You will be able to precisely narrow down the cause of an issue and fix it. This course will teach you how to save time by speeding up your debugging workflow using step-by-step techniques.
This course has two major parts. In the first part you will learn the basics of debugging and understand the tools that Unity provides you to track down and fix errors. In the second part of the course, you will learn about common errors and how to fix them. We will go through step-by-step looking at each error type, possible causes, and debugging checklist to narrow down the issue. Then I will go through hands-on examples in Unity showing an application of the techniques taught. It’s not about memorizing how to solve each error, it is about understanding the mentality of debugging and applying what you know to each situation.
Are you ready to become a master of debugging and speed up your development time in Unity? This Ultimate Guide to Debugging in Unity will get you there.

This is a beginner guide to debugging, but does a good job explaining the basics.

To call it "Ultimate Guide" is overselling this product a bit. I found it useful in a way that other courses don't seem to offer, despite its simplistic nature.

Best practical debugging tutorials for Unity. I have enjoyed very much.

Fantastic course! Goes through each of the errors that can come up and how to fix them.
By Ken H on 7/1/2019
One of the best courses in teaching professional skills. Debugging skills are very hard to teach and I appreciate the way the instructor provide examples in code that generates the errors, and then ways to fix it. Very good.

I have bought a middleclass seminar, and have got the basics of all basics. If you really have never ever programmed with Visual Studio or C#; If you really never ever have seen an Unity Error; And if you are not willing to use the google search button, then this is the right course for you. Whenever it gets interesting, like talking about Live Unit Testing, the author passes it with just a notice, that this is a little bit more tricky to do, letting you alone with this kind of information. But whenever you wanted to know, what a "NullReferenceException" or any other of that freaky exception stuff is, and you are not willing to use google, unity online tutorials or even youtube, then you can spend your money on this. I am laughing my ass of, giving you 11€ for this bit of nothing, and cannot imagine that your original price was 39.99... I mean, what ? Just by repeating your sentences with small changes in words, does not make it a better course... This is for the novice of all novices and noobs. Don't buy this. Use Google. With your response, i totally disagree. If you are intermediate level, you have to know this complete course forth and back that good, that your mom could wake you up in the middle of the night and ask you about it. This course is only for people, who have never ever programmed before, and don't know yet, what each message is. Second, these don't only relate to Unity, but C# in complete, what you didn't mention at any point. It's C# related, including Unity IDE debug tracking. But all of this, you get answered by typing in just the message itself into google and click one of the first three outcomes, most of the times the first one. If it was a free course, or you wanted to have 2€, ok, but 11 is too much, and 40 is something near to taking somebody out for nothing. Maybe this course is also good for people, who can't read text. If you think, this is intermediate, than i want to earn money like you do !
