Debugging an Activity

You have created a Behavior. It is operational. Otherwise, see: Debugging a Behavior.

You have transformed your Behavior into an Activity.

Here is how you can fix the bugs.

Testing an Activity and its Trigger conditions

To test an Activity:

Step	Action
	Save the Project.
	In the Robot Applications panel, click the Package and install the current project to the robot button.
	Click the Turn autonomous life on button.

My Activity does not start

Have a look to the Project Properties:

• Make sure the Behavior is exposed, i.e. its check-box is checked.

• Select the Behavior and make sure its Behavior property are well set.

  Pay attention to: Nature, Trigger sentences and/or Launch trigger condition.

Testing an Activity bypassing its Trigger conditions

To test an Activity bypassing its trigger conditions:

Step	Action
	Make sure the Autonomous Life is on. If not, the Turn autonomous life on button.
	Click the Play button.

Result

Choregraphe, choose, according to the Nature of the Behavior and the current Life state, between the 2 methods: ALBehaviorManagerProxy::startBehavior or ALAutonomousLifeProxy::switchFocus.

AutonomousLife states	Behavior’s Nature
	No nature	Solitary	Interactive
Disabled	startBehavior	startBehavior	startBehavior
Solitary	startBehavior	switchFocus	switchFocus
Interactive	startBehavior	switchFocus*	switchFocus

*Calling switchFocus of a Solitary Activity while in Interactive state will not start the Activity.
