Creating Global Rules

Note:
Step 1 is described in detail for each example in following sections. Steps 2 to 5 are described in
detail at the end of this chapter.
4.9 Creating Global Rules
This section gives examples for creating the Global Rules area of a scenario. Recall that
the Global Rules area defines a single test state. The Global Rules do not have the capacity
for multiple states, so that area of a scenario cannot change state.
In terms of InFusion testing, a state defines test "behavior." In this context, behavior is
"waiting" for an event and responding with an action or set of actions that happen
simultaneously.
Keep in mind that a test state you implement with the Global Rules operates in parallel
with the active test state of each sequence in the scenario.
In effect, InFusion lets you do up to three line tests at the same time. You can do one test
with the Global Rules and a separate test with each sequence you create. You can have up
to two sequences in a scenario.
The following table summarizes the Global Rules examples that follow.
4.9.1

Example 1: Creating a Single Event and Action that Removes a Primitive

In this example, the Global Rules area of the scenario waits for each RRDY Normal
primitive from the initiator and removes it.
1. Click the New Scenario button in the main library or one of the device libraries.
2. In the Scenario Properties dialog, enter the scenario name, description, and
3. In the Global Rules area, click the prompt to add an event.
