Kie Workbench
There is one more component we have briefly mentioned before, Kie Workbench. Kie Workbench is a web environment where we can create and test all sorts of Kie assets, such as rules, processes, and data models. It is a very useful tool to include business people with little technical knowledge of the specifics of implementation into the development cycle, because it provides a user-friendly environment for rule writing. Go to chapter-11-workbench-tests
, compile it, and run the standalone script from the target/wildfly.8.1.0.Final/bin/
folder to start the environment. After it starts, go to http://localhost:8080/kie-wb
