JBoss BPM Suite Travel Agency Demo

This is an online employee travel booking process project. It contains multiple web services for looking up data for the process and rules to calculate pricing. Furthermore, there are several tasks that can be activated to evaluate pricing and to review the final booking data before completing the booking.

There are four options available to you for using this demo; local, Docker, Openshift Online and Red Hat CDK OpenShift Enterprise.

• JBoss EAP 7.0 installer
• JBoss BPM Suite 6.4.0.GA deployable for EAP 7

All tasks have automated reassignment, meaning if not completed within 1 minute they will be put back into the group.

8. Enter credit card details (beginning with 1234...) for compensation to be triggered., Expiry details of the card (e.g. 12/12) and your full name.

9. Check the logs and you will see that the process has been compensated.
