The Test & Debug pack was a stand-alone pack in v9, but is included in the Professional pack in v10 and v11 and is no longer separately available.

I'd suggest moving to v11. I'm biased obviously, but I think it's better than v10 and will receive more updates from us over the coming months and years.

I downloaded V11 a few weeks ago, but V11 is giving me troubles installing last I tried to install it.
