In software development, a breakpoint is an intentional stopping or pausing place in a program, put in place for debugging purposes. It is also sometimes simply referred to as a pause.
The most common form of a breakpoint is the one where the program's execution is interrupted right before a programmer-specified instruction is executed. This is often referred to as an instruction breakpoint.
Other kinds of conditions can also be used, such as the reading, writing, or modification of a specific location in an area of memory. This is often referred to as a conditional breakpoint, a data breakpoint, or a watchpoint.
Breakpoints can also be used to interrupt execution at a particular time, upon a keystroke, etc.
