Tracing and testing

The following table shows the properties that are used for tracing and testing Business Rules Server.
Table 1. Tracing and testing properties
Parameter Values (Default value) Description
trace true, false (false) Indicates whether Business Rules Server activates any internal trace points. Setting this option to true affects the system performance.
traceDetail true, false (false) Provides more tracing information when trace is set to true.
traceValidate true, false (false) Provides validation-level tracing information when trace is set to true.
forceValidation true, false (false) When set to true, the validation flags are ignored and the fields are validated. The following flags are overridden:
  • Edit Required in the global, forward, and return content rules.
  • Verify if present in the MICR edit rules.
msgTimesEnable true, false (false) Indicates whether the Business Rules Server collects and writes out message timing information.
msgTimesFileName ../logs/pdsMsgTimes.csv The name of the comma separated value (CSV) text file that contains the message timing information.
msgTimesFileCount 1-100 (10) The number of CSV files to keep. The file name is automatically changed to include a count that starts with 0 and is incremented by one. With the default msgTimesFileName setting, this file name is pdsMsgTimes0.csv. Each time the Business Rules Server is started, current files are rolled to the next highest number. Therefore, pdsMsgTimes0.csv is always the most recent file.
