With simulation settings you can determine how system activities should behave while simulating the step.
You can simulate three situations:
Simulation settings |
Definition |
|---|---|
Execute |
• performs the function under normal conditions • successful actions as well as errors are handled as in real practice • real-time simulations are accomplished |
Simulate success |
• simulates the successful performance of the function • errors are ignored by the system during the execution of the step |
Simulate error |
• simulates an error while the action is performed • enables an adequate error handling test |
In the step settings you determine if the process should be stopped or continued when an error occurs. If the process is continued, error messages could be sent to the process. Generally it is possible to use these error messages. That enables you to consider the error already during the design of the process.
