What's New in Xdebug
summary
Xdebug 2.6 adds concrete, usable features: forced_error_reporting and forced_display_errors that override PHP.ini; configurable connection timeout and remote_log for debugging failures; tracing that emits full call, argument and return data (selectable text/parsible/HTML) with a browser cookie trigger; profiling output consumable by KCacheGrind; a cc branch check for path coverage (accurate but very slow); and filters that reduce coverage work and report a roughly 2x speedup in test runs.
