## Breaking into the debugger
<pre>-b, --break</pre>
In some IDEs (currently XCode and Visual Studio) it is possible for Catch to break into the debugger on a test failure. This can be very helpful during debug sessions - especially when there is more than one path through a particular test.
Under most debuggers Catch2 is capable of automatically breaking on a test
failure. This allows the user to see the current state of the test during
failure.

### `CATCH_CONFIG_FAST_COMPILE`
Defining this flag speeds up compilation of test files by ~20%, by making 2 changes:
* The `-b` (`--break`) flag no longer makes Catch break into debugger in the same stack frame as the failed test, but rather in a stack frame *below*.
* Non-exception family of macros ({`REQUIRE`,`CHECK`}{`_`,`_FALSE`, `_THAT`}, no longer use local try-catch block. This disables exception translation, but should not lead to false negatives.
This compile-time flag speeds up compilation of assertion macros by ~20%,
by disabling the generation of assertion-local try-catch blocks for
non-exception family of assertion macros ({`REQUIRE`,`CHECK`}{``,`_FALSE`, `_THAT`}).
This disables translation of exceptions thrown under these assertions, but
should not lead to false negatives.
`CATCH_CONFIG_FAST_COMPILE` has to be either defined, or not defined, in all translation units that are linked into single test binary, or the behaviour of setting `-b` flag and throwing unexpected exceptions will be unpredictable.
`CATCH_CONFIG_FAST_COMPILE` has to be either defined, or not defined,

### `CATCH_CONFIG_DISABLE_MATCHERS`
When `CATCH_CONFIG_DISABLE_MATCHERS` is defined, all mentions of Catch's Matchers are ifdef-ed away from the translation unit. Doing so will speed up compilation of that TU.
