Debug Trace/Breakpoint Facility

Question

Is there a trace facility where you can see rules as they fire. I'd like to be able to set breakpoints when debugging rules to figure out why that specific rule path is being taken. I'm trying to detect why rules that should be firing aren't.
The visualization diagram looks right, but the rules aren't firing.
Thanks,
Terry

Hi there,
I did try to use this approach, but, from what I can tell, I see the results after the rule has fired. I want to trap it at the point that a common rule is going to fire, look at the data at that point and that will tell me why the path that was taken was taken. When you have a lot of rules, reviewing the data results isn't very easy. Somehow, highlighting the values that changed with the last rule would be nice. Or do you do this and I don't know how to trun the feature on?
The data may have changed if I look at it after the wrong rule has fired.
Since OPM is figuring out what the next rule to fire is, which is entirely logical to OPM but seems haphazard to me at times, I may not be sure what that prior common rule is.
I guess I'd like to see a diagram of the agenda that shows what rules have fired with access to the data/rules that got me to this point and what rules will fire depending on the answers to the next question to be asked. Am I asking for an interactive decision path to help me figure out where I am and how I got here? I think yes.
I've been going back to visualization diagrams to help me figure out where my rules have gone wrong.
