We talked about this with Jeff and it seems like a useful feature. Some of 
the temptative features are:

- Add an "Attach Debugger Now" button to Icarus
- Give the option of running the failed tests with a debugger attached 
(should also allow to run the full test suite, some failures could only 
happen when other test cases are run).
- Automatically set breakpoints in the failing tests
- Add the ability to set breakpoints in Icarus
- Integrate Icarus in VS (should also work as a standalone app of course)

Unfortunately this will be schedule for v3.1.
I think an "attachDebugger" option could be also useful in other runners 
like Echo and the PowerShell command, but maybe not.
Comments anyone?

Debugging is already supported but there are some cool things that would be 
useful:

1. Setting breakpoints on test entry points.

2. Setting breakpoints on assertion failures.

Will require cooperation with the test frameworks to decide how to do this.  
I'll
provide some new API that Icarus can use to manage breakpoints.
