The usual approach to understanding the behavior of an executable program is to attach it to a debugger and to set break points at various locations to interpret the code flow of the software under test. A debugger, as the name suggests, is a software utility or a computer program that can be used by programmers to debug their programs or software. It also lets programmers see the assembly of the code that is being executed. A debugger is capable of displaying the exact stack on which the code is executed. A debugger is capable of displaying the assembly level equivalent of the high-level programming language code written. Thus, a debugger shows the execution flow of the program in terms of execution stack for function calls, registers, and their addresses/values for program variables, and so on.
Let's take a look at the debuggers that we are going to cover in this...
