7 Manual Testing Motivation and Alternatives Motivation for Manual Testing Test Managers require business process experts (BPx) to perform functional tests of E2E business processes. Although automated tests can cover wide ranges of business processes, additional manual tests are required for areas not covered by automated tests and for User Acceptance Tests (UAT). Approach A One manual test case for the entire E2E business process The test case is assigned at the business process level of the Business Blueprint Recommended approach Approach B For each process step of an E2E business process a single manual test case is provided Each manual test case is assigned at the relevant process step of the E2E business process in the Business Blueprint Additional aspects Test Scope Optimization based on change impact analysis Test execution by multiple Business Process Experts (BPx) BPCA TBOM generation Handling of test data for manual tests 2014 SAP AG.

Approximately > 30% of your blueprint Dynamic TBOM creation Manual TBOM generation at Business Process (not process step) level by Business Process Experts (BPx) BPx executes all executables like transactions of the E2E Business Process while TBOM is generated in the background. Note: process execution can be done one after the other using TBOM extentions Scope: for all executables that can be tested only as E2E business process. Example: O2C 2014 SAP AG.

47 Manual Testing Approach A 1 E2E Test Case covering the entire Business Process Approach A - Advantages 1. Smaller number of test cases since test cases are defined at BP variant level for areas like Logistics, not at process step level (less creation and maintenance effort). 2. No need to define test sequences Test Packages much easier to maintain (less effort) 3. Automatic Test Plan generation from BPCA Test Scope Optimization (TSO): correct E2E tests for E2E business processes and their variants can be detected automatically by BPCA. No additional selection of test cases needed to include all required test cases of the E2E business process (less effort, less error prone) 4. Easier handover of test results (Test Note visible to all testers, Tab Results including screenshots visible to all testers) 5. No Blueprint shortcut problem, since test cases are defined at Business Process level. (Test Plan generation using Keywords assigned to test cases, can t be used when process steps in E2E Business Processes linked via shortcuts which is best practice) Approach A - Challenges 1. No notification for inform next tester of a test sequence. No icon ready to test at Test Package level. 2. Automatic launch of transaction in test systems only works for first transaction of the E2E business process 2014 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 48
