Unit testing of rules

You can test a rule with test data that you provide by selecting Actions > Run in the rule fom toolbar.

The appearance of the Run Rule window varies across rule types, so how you run a rule varies by its type. In general, you complete the following tasks:

When you run the rule, the system uses rule resolution. If you click the Run button, but there is a higher version of the rule, the system displays a status message stating it will run the higher version.

To test a circumstance rule, ensure that the circumstances are correct for the rule. Otherwise, the base rule is run.
