# Debugging tests
If your tests aren't working as you expect them to, you can inspect and debug them in the browser.
<div class="alert is-helpful">
For the sample app that the testing guides describe, see the <live-example embedded-style noDownload>sample app</live-example>.
For the tests features in the testing guides, see <live-example stackblitz="specs" noDownload>tests</live-example>.
</div>
Debug specs in the browser in the same way that you debug an application.
1. Reveal the Karma browser window. See [Set up testing](guide/testing#set-up-testing) if you need help with this step.
1. Click the **DEBUG** button; it opens a new browser tab and re-runs the tests.
1. Open the browser's “Developer Tools” (`Ctrl-Shift-I` on Windows; `Command-Option-I` in macOS).
1. Pick the "sources" section.
1. Open the `1st.spec.ts` test file (Control/Command-P, then start typing the name of the file).
1. Set a breakpoint in the test.
1. Refresh the browser, and it stops at the breakpoint.
