Debugging a Laravel application using Zend Studio breakpoints

Question

I want to use server breakpoints in Zend Studio to debug a Laravel application. However I am unable to find any documentation involving how to set up Zend Studio breakpoints to work with a Laravel application.

The documentation for Zend Studio has information on utilizing breakpoints in the debug process, however this is only to debug individual PHP classes and not applications that utilize a PHP framework.

How can I integrate Zend Studio server breakpoints into my debugging workflow for a Laravel application?
