/// Unfortunately these actions differ widely between different debuggers available in a field. These interface present generalized standard form of
/// performing these actions. Implementation depends a lot on the environment application is running in and thus there are several custom implementations
/// supported by the Boost.Test

/// In addition here you find interfaces for memory leaks detection and reporting.

/// Specifies which debugger to use when attaching and optionally what routine to use to start that debugger

/// There are  many different debuggers available for different platforms. Some of them also can be used in a different setups/configuratins.

/// Also different debuggers configurations require different routines which is specifically tailored to start that debugger configuration.

///   - TODO
///
/// You can use this routine to select which one of the predefined debugger configurations to use in which case you do not need to provide starter
/// routine (the one provided by Boost.Test will be used). You can also use this routine to select your own debugger by providing unique configuration
/// id and starter routine for this configuration.
///

///                              in the point in invocation of this function. Otherwise execution continues, but now it is
