How do you debug on breakpoints in swift on xcode?

I face trouble using po/p command in xcode using swift. It doesn't work always and gives error most of the time. Also its response is not useful most of the time. For example, when i type "po user" it gives instead of its details and items which i could expand while using objective-c

How do you debug any breakpoint? Are there any great external tools or alternatives available for this?

Having the same problem with Xcode 6 to 7.1.1. Here is a workaround until the gets bug fixed:

Use the p command instead. If this doesnt work then do "step into" before you type the p command.

p yourvariable.yourparameter
