Set rules or criteria to evaluate the results of test measures. These rules establish thresholds that determine the acceptable performance and quality metrics for a service under evaluation. If test measure results exceed or
fall below these thresholds, it indicates a deviation from expected performance levels.

## Vorbereitungen

Role required: admin

## Prozedur

1. Navigate to AllService Test ManagementTest DefinitionsAll.
2. Select the test definition that you want to open.
3. In the Threshold Rules related list, define a threshold rule for a test measure by selecting New.
4. On the form, fill in the fields.

{#define-threshold-rules__table_ajh_hqy_jbc__entry__2}

| Field | Description |
|-|-|
| Number | Auto-generated ID for the test measure definition. |
| Name | Name of the threshold rule. |
| Test measure definition | Name of the test measure definition for which you're defining threshold rules. |
| Conformance comparator exact | Option to determine if the service under testing meets the defined criteria. |
| Conformance target exact | Option to determine if the service or system behaves as expected under specified conditions. This field appears only if the Conformance comparator exact option is selected. |
| Conformance comparator lower | Lower range of the threshold for comparing the test measure results. |
| Conformance comparator upper | Upper range of the threshold for comparing the test measure results. |
| Severity | Severity of this rule. |
| Tolerance period | Specified time interval during which crossing occurrences are enabled without triggering any immediate consequences or actions. |
| Number of allowed crossing | Number of occurrences of a threshold crossing that are allowed within a certain time frame before any consequences are triggered. |
| Conformance target lower | Lower boundary that determines if a specific limit is crossed or no longer crossed. Hinweis: This value must be greater than the upper limit defined in the Conformance target upper. |
| Conformance target upper | Upper limit that determines if the threshold is crossed or no longer crossed. Hinweis: This value must be less than the lower limit defined in the Conformance target lower. |
| Description | Description of the threshold rule. |
