It would be great to run vows debug mytest.js that will call node debug underneath. Thanks in advance!

+1 This would be very useful for troubleshooting tests

As a workaround, invoking node directly with the debug argument appears to work correctly instead of having the shell invoke node via the shebang. It would be super convenient though if vows included a wrapper that handled a debug argument similar to how mocha handles it

Why not just replace the command 'vows' with 'node-debug' ?

like

 vows someTest.js

with

node-debug someTest.js

That worked for me.
