WP 7.5 - How can I test tombstoning?

Question

In WP 7.0 it was easy to test the tombstone system - I'd hit the camera button then press back to get a tombstone/resume. In WP 7.5 the app goes dormant for awhile, but appears to tombstone at an indeterminate time. Is it possible to force this situation for testing?

You can test tombstoning using the emulator (this may even work on the phone I haven't tested it). Under the project properties, on the "Debug" panel, there is a checkbox named "Tombstone upon deactivation while debugging".

This setting will force the app to tombstone in the way it did before when the debugger is attached.

I believe it's in the Debug panel in project properties – Coben

This is great - know of any way for a tester to make this happen on a device? – Bravo

I haven't had a chance to test it on a device, try deploying the app to the phone with the debugger enabled and see if it forces a tombstone. For a test not connected to a PC I don't think you can force the tombstone. – Adenaadenauer

That's about what I'd expect. Thanks Nigel! – Bravo

Its not working on Device that is why i have to google many time after all your answered gave me the hint. THANK – Gusgusba
