SAP Testing Roles and Responsibilities
Regression testing is referred to a test which verifies that some new configuration
does not adversely impact existing functionality. This will be done on each phase of
testing.
User Acceptance Testing: Refers to Customer testing. The UAT will be performed
through the execution of predefined business scenarios, which combine various
business processes. The user test model is comprised of a sub-set of system
integration test cases.
We use different software during testing. Most commonly use are
Test Director: which is used to record requirement, preparing test plan and then
recording the progress. We will be incorporating defects that are coming during these
testings using different test cases.
Mercury Load Runner: is used for performance testing. This is an automatic tool.
SAP Functional unit testing
What does the following terms means :
- Technical Unit Testing
- Functional Unit Testing
- Integration Testing
- Volume Testing
- Parallel Testing?
Technical Unit Testing = Test of some technical development such as a user exit,
custom program, or interface. the test usually consists of a test data set that is
processed according to the new program. A successful test only proves the developed
code works and that it performed the process as as designed.
Functional Unit Testing = Test of configuration, system settings or a custom
development (it may follow the technical unit testing) These usually use actual data or
data that is masked but essentially the same as a real data set. A successful test shows
that the development or configuration works as designed and the data is accurate as a
result.
Integration Testing = Testing a process, development or configuration within the
context of any other functions that the process, development or functionality will
touch or integrate . The test should examine all data involved across all modules and
any data indirectly affected. A successful test indicates that the processes work as
designed and integrate with other functions without causing any problems in any
integrated areas.
Volume Testing = testing a full data set that is either actual or masked to insure that
the entire volume does cause system problems such as network transmission
problems, system resources issues, or any systemic problem, A successful test
indicates that the processes will not slow or crash the system due to a full data set
being utilized.
Parallel Testing = Testing the new system or processes with a complete data set while
running the same processes in the legacy system. A successful test will show identical
results when both the legacy system and new system results are compared.
I would also note that when a new implementation is being done you will want to
conduct at least one cut over test from the old system to the new and you should
probably do several.
What kind of testings that are carried out in testing server?
1. Individual Testing ( Individually which we've created)
2. Regressive Testing ( Entire Process)
3. Integration Testing ( Along with other integrated modules)
The 3 types of testing is as follows:1. Unit testing (where an individual process relevant to a SD or SAP MM etc. is
tested)
2. Integration testing (where a process is tested that cuts across all areas of SAP).
3. Stress testing (where lots of transactions are run to see if the system can handle the
data)
