[rules-users] Code Coverage

[Wolfgang Laun]

It is highly recommended as "best practice" to have RHS code that
doesn't contain any branching instructions. Then, executing means full
coverage.

In case it is necessary to have more complex code I'd not put it into
a RHS anyway (where it isn't really OO any more) but I'd code it in
Java files and just call from the RHS.

For the LHS you can also argue that firing proves coverage; although
it won't be full *expression* logic coverage, due to potentially
skipped subexpressions in disjunctions.
