Debugging is a methodical process of finding and reducing the number of bugs, or defects, in a computer program or a piece of electronic hardware thus making it behave as expected. Debugging tends to be harder when various subsystems are tightly coupled, as changes in one may cause bugs to emerge in another.

debugging tools are just tools used to debug programs or scripts.



If I have a program made from Visual Studio 2005 .net, and found some problems in the program, so I 'debugged' my program using Visual Studio 2005. Here, the 'tool' is Visual Studio 2005.



Again.. If there was an Oracle Database, and the scripts were somehow messed up, I would use SQL*Plus to 'debug' the database or the script. Here, SQL*Plus would be the debugging tool.



Debugging would be just a sexy (or geeky) way to say 'fixing.'
