Essential Business Process Modeling

Testing the Example

This section presents two test scenarios:

• Test case 1: InsuranceClaim is started, the EvaluateClaim task is completed with an outcome of requiresAnalysis, the AnalyzeClaim task times out, and the EscalateClaim task is completed with an acceptance.

• Test Case 2: InsuranceClaim is started and, after a short time, is killed.

The first page to come up after login is the Dashboard, shown in Figure 10-11, which lists the currently deployed processes. If you do not see the InsuranceClaim and InsuranceClaimKiller processes, open BPEL Designer and build and deploy each of them by selecting BPEL → Build and Deploy BPEL Project.
