Abstract
The system and method of this invention classifies the options of a data processing system into test levels based upon the dependency of the option to other options within a configuration of the processing system. The test level information for each option is stored in a present configuration list of the options. In addition, prerequisite rule bases are linked to each dependent option in the configuration list. The diagnostic system accesses the test level information and the prerequisite rule base information to determine when to test an option, and the order in which to test options, when isolating a failing option. A failing option can be isolated during a system checkout, a selected option checkout, or by resolving a missing option in the present configuration.
