By positioning the pointer on a column, cell, or row of a decision table you can display a tooltip is that gives the test expression set for that element. The Rule Builder provides the following tooltips:

Column Tooltip

When a condition column is assigned a test expression, a tooltip is available on the column header to display this test. Figure 12.7 shows a sample tooltip.
