Rule Builder > Managing Decision Trees > Checking Capabilities > Checking for Contiguity

Contiguity checking helps to check that all cases are evaluated in the decision tree. For number intervals, if the union of all intervals in a set of test links is a unique interval, the set of links is declared contiguous.

To check for contiguity:

When a test link value violates a checking rule that has been set, and if the checking of values is enabled at the tree level, the decision node is highlighted in red and a warning icon images/dtree_warnicon.png is displayed, as shown in Figure 13.52.

Contiguity is checked only for Number.

If you place the pointer over the images/dtree_warnicon.png icon, the tooltip explains the error, see Figure 13.53.
