System and method for testing autoverification rules
First Claim
1. A method of testing an autoverification rule configured to autoverify laboratory test results provided by a laboratory analyzer, the method comprising:
- a) performing the autoverification rule on a rule check including an example test result, performance of the autoverification rule on the rule check providing a rule check output;
b) determining whether the rule check output is an expected output;
c) modifying the autoverification rule;
d) automatically performing the modified autoverification rule on the rule check, performance of the modified autoverification rule on the rule check providing a modified rule check output; and
e) automatically indicating whether the modified rule check output is the expected output.

Abstract
A method of testing an autoverification rule comprises providing a rule check including a example test result. After the rule check is provided, the autoverification rule is automatically performed on the rule check. Performance of the autoverification rule on the rule check provides a rule check output. It is then determined whether the rule check output is an expected output. A system for testing the autoverification rules comprises a graphical user interface configured to display an autoverification rule and receive the rule check for the autoverification rule. The system further includes a processor configured to automatically perform the autoverification rule on the rule check and provide a rule check output. The processor is further configured to receive an input indicating whether the rule check output is an approved output for the autoverification rule.

14. A system for testing an autoverification rule configured to autoverify laboratory test results, the system comprising:
-
a graphical user interface configured to display an autoverification rule and receive a rule check for the autoverification rule, the rule check including an example test result; a processor configured to automatically perform the autoverification rule on the rule check and provide a rule check output, the processor further configured to receive an input indicating whether the rule check output is an approved output for the autoverification rule; and a data storage, wherein the rule check and rule check output are saved in the data storage; wherein the rule check and rule check is retrieved from data storage upon modification of the autoverification rule, and wherein the graphical user interface indicates whether the rule check output has changed upon modification of the autoverification rule. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
