Customizing testing and simulation

Create key performance indicators (KPIs) to enable simulations in the Enterprise console, create a scenario provider to use a custom data source, or use the application programming interface (API) to run your tests.

DVS Projects
You use Decision Validation Services (DVS) projects to repackage the Scenario Service provider (SSP) and Decision Center archives.
DVS formats
You use DVS formats for testing and simulations.
Creating DVS formats
You use the DVS format wizard to create a new DVS format.
Creating scenario providers
You create new scenario providers in Rule Designer to use with the Scenario Service Provider (SSP). The SSP uses the provider to execute the scenarios defined in the scenario suite.
Creating KPIs
You create a key performance indicator (KPI) to define the performance of a simulation in the Decision Center Enterprise console.
Customizing the message for tests on arrays or collections
You can customize the message displayed for the tests on arrays or collections of these complex objects in the HTML execution report.
Configuring the Scenario Service Provider
To customize how resources are assigned to scenario suites, you need to configure the Scenario Service Provider (SSP).
Repackaging the SSP and Decision Center archives
You repackage the Scenario Service Provider (SSP) and the Decision Center archives when you create a custom format, or when you add a XOM to the SSP.
Customizing execution using the DVS API
You run tests in Rule Designer using the DVS API.
