| contents | Software bugs typically result from errors in specifications or code translation. While classical software engineering has evolved with various tools and methodologies to tackle such bugs, the emergence of quantum computing presents unique challenges. Quantum software development introduces complexities due to the probabilistic nature of quantum computing, distinct algorithmic primitives, and potential hardware noise. In this paper, we introduce CircInspect, an interactive tool tailored for debugging quantum programs in Python and PennyLane. By leveraging breakpoints and real-time software development features, \toolname~empowers users to analyze isolated quantum circuit components, monitor program output, visualize structural changes, and abstract information to enhance comprehension. |
