Summary
In this chapter, we covered the main characteristics and features of the Web Process
Designer. We learned how to create and manipulate process definitions and other related
assets in the KIE Workbench and how to design our processes.
Using one of the processes introduced in
Chapter 3
,
Using BPMN 2.0 to Model Business
Scenarios,
as a guideline, we have reviewed the different BPMN 2.0 elements and proper-
ties that we might use if we want to create an executable version of that process in jBPM6.
While designing the process, we learned about some of the most frequently used BPMN
2.0 elements as well as the properties required by the jBPM6 engine for execution.
This chapter introduced some executable examples that we can use to test not only the pro-
cesses introduced by this chapter, but also any other process we might create using these
tools.
Now, we should be familiar not only with the Web Process Designer's UI, but also with the
underlying BPMN 2.0 code it generates.
Let's move on to some of the most advanced topics of jBPM6, such as runtime managers,
Human tasks, and persistence management.
