Troubleshooting strategy rules by using the Tracer tool
You can use the Tracer tool to view the order in which the top-level strategy and its substrategies are processed in your application. The outcome of the analysis can give you insight about the correctness of the strategy configuration.
For example, with the Tracer tool, you can detect a faulty switch condition that prevents a substrategy from running or that unnecessarily triggers a substrategy.
