Running and debugging client-side human services in the Inspector
Run your client-side human service to see whether it performs as
expected. If errors occur, you can use the debugger to examine each step in the client-side human
service.
About this task
While the client-side human service runs, a playback window shows the running client-side human service. For coaches, the playback window shows the rendering of the coach so that you can complete the coach and move to the next step in the flow.
Using the Inspector, you can incrementally step through the activities in your client-side human service so that you can observe how the client-side human service behaves as it runs. The Inspector pauses the execution of the service before each step and displays the variable values at each point.
Important: Because the playback window opens as a pop-up window, you might receive an
error message if your web browser is configured to block pop-ups. Before you proceed with the
debugging session, configure your browser to allow pop-ups from the host that your Business Automation Studio is
installed on.
Procedure
- Open the client-side human service that you want to run.
- Click Run
in the upper right of the toolbar.
The playback window opens, showing the running client-side human service. - If the running activity is a coach, the playback window shows the coach. Complete the
coach and trigger the boundary event to transition out of the coach and move to the next step in the
flow.
If the client-side human service completed successfully, you see a message in the playback window.
