Chart self-checks
There are a couple of simple checks that the designer can easily perform locally to avoid sending the chart outside of the designer for analysis. These checks include:
-
cyclic parent-child relationships -
illegal transitions between AND states -
dangling transitions (missing/unknown target or source) -
no outgoing transitions from a pseudo state -
an ingoing transition to an initial state -
no outgoing transition from an initial state -
transition label from prob pseudo state doesn't match /@0?.[0-9]+/ -
transition label from choice pseudo state doesn't start and end with [and]respectively -
child visually not within the bounds of the parent -
state visually inside another but is not a child of that state -
missing initial state
All of which should trigger messages described in #5.
