Polling Question 3:

Record and Playback Technology Time consuming to run through every possible process flow to create scenarios, requires programming skills to create and maintain the scripts.

Automated Testing in the Past

Keeping Automation Test Cases Up-To-Date Faster development cycles and business changes require on-going maintenance and up-to-date test cases (family packs, enhancements, customizations, patches, etc.)

Staffing The Necessary Testing Resources It takes someone with a technical skill set to properly build and maintain test automation with traditional tools and those resources are hard to find.

Minimal Automated Test Coverage Business process complexity leads to many test scenarios resulting in low test coverage introducing significant business risk.

Key Facts To mitigate risk, QA needs to test based on what is changing and what is

impacted

Code analysis and code quality is a key part of the overall quality / cost objective

Earlier, faster testing of applications results in greater application agility

Early development of BPT components results in reduced implementation of new technologies

Advanced software can give you instant identification of changes in SAP, reflecting impact of change to your business processes

Excel workbook allows easy updating of test scenarios using an common, central user interface

No need to rely on technical team to build and maintain automated tests
