In the second window, select and define the properties for your rule.

Basic properties

The following basic properties are required for your rule:

• Category: Select a category for your rule by choosing a group of rules that you want to add this one to.

• Severity: Select a severity level for your rule, depending on how strictly you want to enforce the rule.

Specific properties

The specific properties for your rule are dependent upon the template you chose. For example, some templates require you to specify a class while others require a class and method. The names you provide for these components are unique to your application.
