(Deprecated) Testing and simulating rulesets with Decision Validation Services

You use Decision Validation Services to enable, use, and customize testing and simulation. This feature works with only the classic rule engine.

Deprecated feature:

Deprecation icon Decision Validation Services is deprecated in V8.8.0. This feature will be removed in a future release of the product. See Deprecated features for migration details.

With DVS, you execute rulesets on usage scenarios for testing and simulation. You perform the tests in either Decision Center or in Rule Designer, which provides added debugging capabilities. Decision Center distinguishes between tests and simulations through test suite and simulation artifacts. In Rule Designer, this distinction is not visible. In Rule Designer you can create custom scenario providers for the Decision Center consoles, and key performance indicators (KPIs) for use in the Decision Center Enterprise console.
Note: In Rule Designer you can also run tests locally on decision operations using the Excel Tabbed format to store your scenarios. You can also deploy the XOM of a decision service for testing in the Business console.
