    TestStand BlazorUI Executions view with a sequence step selected and execution paused.

The sequence runs from the selected entry point, and execution pauses at breakpoints so you can inspect and control step flow.

Note Step Into is supported only for sequence call steps. Stepping into code modules is not supported.
