Claims that separating product data from rules and modeling products as a graph-based product model makes pricing fast to change, implements Behavior Driven tests with Python tools (freshen/lettuce style) as pattern tests, and uses the Rete idea to find only relevant rules. Built a model-driven engine that ingests XML, maps to a graph, evaluates rules and returns charges as JSON over HTTP; handles cases like tubs with three scoops or a single ketchup squirt and is deployed successfully for the ice cream client.
