Additional steps to configure testing and simulation
You can deploy and configure testing and simulation features to complement your Decision Center configuration on WebSphere® Application Server.
- Before you start
You start by installing certain applications, and then you follow a sequence of steps to deploy the testing and simulation features. - Step 1: Creating Decision Warehouse database resources
You set up the Decision Warehouse to support testing and simulation services. - Step 2: Creating Decision Runner database resources
To run simulations in the Business console, you must create dedicated tables in your database for the Decision Runner. - Step 3: Deploying the testing and simulation archive
After you create the database resources, you can deploy the testing and simulation archive. - Step 4: Checking the availability of the testing and simulation services
You use URLs to check the availability of the Decision Runner and Scenario Service Provider (SSP) applications. - Step 5: Using an Ant task to package the SSP archive
You package the archive for testing and simulation. - Step 6: Redeploying a testing and simulation archive
You might have to redeploy an archive that was deployed earlier. - Distributing rule testing to multiple servers
When you configure the Rule Execution Server environment on a domain with multiple servers, you can define which Rule Execution Server instances are used to execute rule tests. - Tuning the Decision Runner web application
You improve the performance of simulation runs in the Business console.
