Input Parameter Values for Simulation

As a Business Knowledge Model is self-contained, it is possible to perform a simulation 'Unit Test' by providing a default set of values as an input for its parameters. These values can be defined in the Input Parameter Values for Simulation tab in the DMN Expression window.

Parameters of a Business Knowledge Model (BKM)

Parameters for a BKM are accessed from the DMN Expression window, using the Edit Parameters button on the toolbar:

A default set of values for these parameters, that can be used in a simulation of the BKM, are defined in the 'Input Parameter Values for Simulation' tab on the DMN Expression window:

With these parameters set the BKM can be tested using the Simulation button.

Simulation Examples

These are two examples of using the Input Parameter Values for Simulation.
