Abstract
An interactive multimedia application executes in a debug mode in which a tester can specify a particular classification of user event and a user event satisfying the particular classification is emulated. For example, classifications can include correct and incorrect responses. To emulate a correct response, an interactive module of the interactive multimedia application determines correct criteria and provides those criteria to a debug manager upon request. In addition, characterization of user events is performed by a user interface module which communicates user events in the form of event messages to the interactive module. The debug manager emulates a user event of the particular category by retrieving the classification criteria from the interactive module, forming an event message representing an event satisfying the criteria for the particular classification, and sending the event message to the interactive module. Accordingly, the interactive module receives an event message which could have come from either the debug manager or the user interface module. As such, the particular computer instructions executed by the interactive module in response to the event are the same regardless of whether the event is emulated.
