<p>Sounds like your service uses KnowledgeAgent that detects changes to rules in Guvnor based upon a changeset?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Either way your requirement remains the same: *your* application architecture needs to support (at least) the ability to provide different changesets (for testing you can use a changeset that points to a local folder containing rules rather than Guvnor).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>You're not going to be able to avoid mocking some part of your application if you don't want to get rules from Guvnor (although I prefer the term pluggable - CDI use of @Specialises or @Alternative would be a good example, but IDK if you use CDI).<o:p></o:p></p>
