Change is a Fundamental Principle Testing is a necessity

There are many changes in the solution life cycle - and every change requires testing

So why dont customer all test all the time?

So why dont customer all test all the time? Because testing has never been easy

And Over 86% of customers are Concerned about risks due to a lack of comprehensive testing

How about using a test automation tool?

Tradition automated testing is essentially building a program - to test a program

Traditional test automation requires programming
Record and Playback tests are not robust - they require programming and/or scripting to make tests truly re-usable - Business Analysts and End Users, who are the most qualified to test the app are typically not programmers

Automated Test Maintenance Overhead

Automated tests must be kept in synch with the application under test SAP applications are constantly changing via transports, updates, hot-packs, etc. One customer reduced 6000 manual hours of testing to 2000 hours via automation But the scripts required 3000 hours of maintenance overhead per cycle

So how does TAO work?

Here is how TAO works

Here is how TAO works

A customer has an instance of SAP

Here is how TAO works

This instance has been configured, using standard transactions and custom z-codes, to meet the business needs of the customer

Here is how TAO works

TAO can analyze the meta-data in the SAP Data Dictionary to determine how every screen has been configured

Here is how TAO works

Quality Center Test Component Library

TAO creates a reusable test component for every screen and populates the BPT library in Quality Center with these components

SAP SolMan Integration and TAO Overview

1. Define requirements and configuration in Solution Manager

5. Run manual and automated tests, report results and then transfer results into Solution Manager

2. Test team transfers requirements into SAP Quality Center by HP and completes a risk assessment & schedule

End-to-end QA & Testing process that can decrease SAP testing cost and time by almost 2/3 3. Develop / update test case and create traceability matrix 4. SAP Test Acceleration and Optimization (TAO) toolset to create reusable automated components (scripts) can do manually as well.
