In the final stages of development and testing before an initial beta release. As part of final stage testing I would like to debug using breakpoints on exceptions and would like to know if any other programmers can recommend some exceptions to enable, and why?

Here are just a few that would be suitable for this exercise...

System.ArgumentNullException
System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException
System.NotEnoughCommentsInMethodException
System.NullReferenceException

App is C#, Winforms, Firebird DB, NHibernate, .NET 4.0

Looking forward to some input!

Answer 1

All of them

If your application is throwing any exceptions whatsoever, you want to be aware of it.

Sometimes, there will be exceptions which are expected; if you come across them you should uncheck them to reduce noise.
However, you should also try to eliminate those (where possible); exceptions should be reserved for exceptional situations.
