Abstract
A method, information handling system, and computer program product to simulate conditions in a software module, by identifying, in the software module, whether a simulation environment has been activated, encountering a simulation point in the software module, the simulation point including one or more simulation parameters, and in response to identifying that the simulation environment has been activated and the simulation point has been encountered: invoking a simulation module, the invoking including passing the simulation parameters to the simulation module, comparing, at the simulation module, the simulation parameters with one or more active simulation entries, and returning a simulated condition from the simulation module to the software module in response to the comparing.
