Digital transformation is near the top of the business leaders’ agenda today. Future SAP technologies are the catalyst that accelerates digital transformation initiatives. The next generation of SAP solutions, such as SAP S/4HANA and SAP Fiori, offer even more promising capabilities like migration, end-to-end integrations, and business intelligence. Adequate testing is required to accelerate these SAP projects and deliver innovation faster.
For SAP applications, testing represents an as-of-yet untapped reservoir of the desired improvements. This blog explores how business leaders can eliminate traditional testing roadblocks to achieve true digital transformation by adopting a continuous test automation tool that accelerates innovation and avoids the cost, effort, and complexity of traditional SAP testing.
New Testing Frameworks needs to Overcomes Conventional Testing Approach
The fact that many businesses remain stuck with old, out-of-date manual testing processes only compounds the problem. Even after testing is completed, test leads, and managers from each functional area still hold their breath with each release. They face challenges like:
Keep updating the same test scripts kills most time and effort
The speed of different SAP components evolving to that of testing updates is not in sync
SAP ecosystem introducing different applications SAP ECC, S/4HANA, SuccessFactors, SAP Ariba, and SAP Hybris and different business processes that connect these different versions
By increasing the focus on automated testing with the ability to understand and focus test efforts mainly on business risks, organizations can pace modern application delivery.
Digital Transformation is Metamorphosing
An adequate testing tool is our need that ties together all of the trends that will ultimately shape the face of testing in the digital era. OpKey Surge’s continuous testing platform enables enterprises to automate testing for multiple generations of SAP technologies, other ERP platforms, user interfaces, and technologies that help you keep pace with enterprise end-to-end testing. Its pre-built accelerator with self-creating and self-healing test cases relieves the “maintenance burden” and accelerates automated testing by 3X-5X. OpKey’s record and playback engine easily handle complex Ul, offering the competitive advantage and remarkably, shortening the time -to-money spans. Its change management feature performs end-to-end change analysis, risk prioritization, and test visibility in real-time. Business users can get on-the-fly scoring with OpKey’s real-time change impact analysis reducing their testing scope by 70% with the “Right Tests” approach.
