Debugging is a laborious activity in which developers spend lot of time navigating through code, looking for starting points, and stepping through statements. In this paper, we present the Swarm Debug Infrastructure (SDI) with which researchers can collect and share data about developers' interactive debugging activities. SDI allows collecting and sharing debugging data that are useful to answer research questions about interactive debugging activities. We assess the effectiveness of the SDI through an experiment to understand how developers apply interactive debugging
