Artifacts
Artifact elements add additional information to diagrams. They're used to improve docu-
mentation aspects and the specification defines two types of artifacts: Groups and Text
annotations .
Groups are used to encapsulate a group of tasks together by any sort of criteria. They don't
affect the flow of the process. Text annotations allow us to add notes to our process dia-
grams, such as comments inside our process, as shown in the following diagram:
Since they don't affect process execution, jBPM6 skips them from its internal parsing.
