IBM Assessment: IBM WebSphere Operational Decision Management V8.0, Application Development Sample Questions:

1. The application developer needs to automate the rule project build process. The rule projects are stored in a Source Code Control system. What should the application developer do to automate the build process?

A) Use the Ant zip task to zip the rule project contents into a ruleset.
B) Copy the Rule Designer API library files onto the build machine, write a Java class to call a remotely running Rule Designer to generate the ruleset using the Rule Designer API.
C) Install Rule Designer on the build machine and write a Java class to call the rule engine API.
D) Install Rule Designer on the build machine and use the Rule Designer build automation tool to generate the ruleset.

2. After a company deploys their rules to production, a series of new business policies affect several of the deployed rules. The rule authors fix the rules, and the updated ruleset is deployed.
However, another business policy change makes some of the rule fixes incorrect and the original rules need to be reinstated. The rule authors ask for help from the application developer so that they do not lose their correct changes. What should the application developer do?

A) Unfreeze the deployment baseline so the rule authors can fix the rules again, and then redeploy the baseline.
B) Erase the current project and synchronize with Rule Designer to get the originally deployed rules.
C) Clone the deployment baseline to a branch, and use the Diff and Merge tool to select the correct rules to keep on the current branch of the project.
D) Restore the baseline so that it becomes the current state of the project so that the rule authors redo the appropriate rule changes.

3. A custom hierarchy property location is defined for each rule to specify geographical location to which the rule applies. The following figure shows the value of the location property for various rules.

An application developer wants to select all rules that apply to Los Angeles. For example, Rule 1, Rule 2 and Rule 3. Which runtime rule selection Business Action Language (BAL) construct should the application developer use?

A) the location of the rule is under 'Los Angeles'
B) the location of the rule is 'Los Angeles'
C) the location of the rule is greater than or equal to 'Los Angeles'
D) the location of the rule is over 'Los Angeles'

4. Business users want to be notified when a RuleApp has been updated or deleted. What should the application developer do to support this requirement?

A) Register the business user's email in RuleApp view page in Rule Execution Server Console.
B) Execute the res-jar Ant task to set up email notifications.
C) Register the business user in the Decision Center Console.
D) Create a Rule Execution Server MBeans listener.

5. The following figure shows the organization of rule project references.
-Project B and Project C reference Project D -Project A references Project B and Project C Where should the application developer define a ruleset parameter so that the parameter is visible in all the rule projects?
