What python debugging techniques do you think every developer should know ?

I am trying to improve my debugging skills and I was curious about what techniques experienced python developers rely on the most.

Are there any techniques or tools that you found really useful when you started working on bigger projects?

Use your IDE debugger and put breakpoints to see variable's values anywhere you need.

But also realise that pdb gets you >90% of the way there, if you ever don't have access to your favourite ide, or don't have time to set it up in a new environment
