What's New in InRule® Version 3.2?

May, 2009, Sydney

Extending InRule's Rule Authoring Leadership with Powerful New Features for Business Users and Developers InRule Version 3.2 includes new capabilities to improve the effectiveness of rule authoring and management for both business users and developers responsible for maintaining core decision logic, while increasing the depth of support for widely used Microsoft technologies.

InRule Version 3.2 reflects the company's high degree of responsiveness to its customers, since many of the new capabilities are a direct result of feedback from the 2008 InRule User Community Meeting.

New features for developers and business users include:

irStudio

irStudio provides rule authoring and editing within Microsoft Visual Studio. With InRule's key authoring capabilities such as Business Language Authoring, Decision Tables, and integrated real-time testing, irStudio eliminates the need for developers to use separate tools for development and rule authoring.

irScript

irScript is the first dynamic language for business rules based on the Microsoft Dynamic Language Runtime. irScript simplifies the creation of User Defined Functions by extending the power of iterative development and enabling rapid changes for applications that adapt to changing business requirements.

Regression Testing

Regression Testing is a new integrated feature of InRule's real-time testing tool, irVerify. Regression Testing allows rule authors to compare test case results in order to ensure proper rule functionality when changes are made to any part of a rule application.

Rule Tracing

Rule Tracing provides a step-by-step trace of rule execution for analysis, tuning and troubleshooting.

RuleFlow

RuleFlow is a graphically displayed and edited RuleSet that provides an easy, visual way for rule authors to understand and control the execution of a rule application and to dictate ts execution order, including both conditional branching and the execution of RuleSets and WorkFlows.

Active Directory Integration

Active Directory Integration simplifies administration by importing Active Directory users and groups into irCatalog; InRule's database-backed service for rule management, security and administration.

Windows Workflow Foundation

Execute a Windows Workflow Foundation workflow - existing workflows can be called for functions such as populating data or taking action based on a decision, making it easy to integrate workflow capabilities into a rule application.
