How to see error messages?

Just created a very first script. Since there is no concept of debugging, how do you actually see what went wrong if anything. All I see in the "Results" tab are "Failure"'s in "Status" column for every day of the backtest. No console output, no logs. I was expecting to at least see on_start messages printed. Where can I find any python stack trace?

    Check to see what shows up in the backtest "results" tab. There is a console tab that shows most errors.

    Yes, I thought so, but there was nothing there, until I accidentally hovered over something and got a pop-up box: "Use single day backtest to debug" or something to that extent. Now we're talking!
