If you compile CICS programs using the integrated translator, you can debug the programs at the original source level instead of debugging the expanded source that the separate CICS translator provides.
If you use the separate CICS translator, first translate your CICS programs into COBOL. Then debug the resulting COBOL programs the same way you would debug any other COBOL programs.
