 The DAST job does not require the project's repository to be present when running, so by default
 [`GIT_STRATEGY`](../../../ci/yaml/README.md#git-strategy) is set to `none`.
 
+### Debugging DAST jobs
+
+A DAST job has two executing processes:
+
+- The ZAP server.
+- A series of scripts that start, control and stop the ZAP server.
+
+Debug mode of the scripts can be enabled by using the `DAST_DEBUG` environment variable. This can help when troubleshooting the job,
+and will output statements indicating what percentage of the scan is complete.
+For details on using variables, see [Overriding the DAST template](#overriding-the-dast-template).
+
+Debug mode of the ZAP server can be enabled using the `DAST_ZAP_LOG_CONFIGURATION` environment variable.
+The following table outlines examples of values that can be set and the effect that they have on the output that is logged.
+Multiple values can be specified, separated by semicolons.
