  • These days, SAP projects need to be faster than ever. Technology is evolving rapidly. Without rapid implementation, your expensive new solution will be outdated by the time you go live.

    The move to cloud-based 'evergreen' solutions has accelerated and simplified SAP delivery. However, in many cases, testing is still causing a significant bottleneck.

    Many Customers Struggle to Evolve Their SAP Testing

    The accelerated pace of SAP change has the potential to unlock significant business benefits.

    With solutions like S/4HANA, SAP customers can realize their visions in months instead of years. Plus, SAP solutions are regularly updated so their customers always stay ahead of the curve.

    Unfortunately, testing often struggles to keep up with the rapid pace of SAP change.?

    Businesses have prioritized technological and developmental change, without paying due attention to testing. Testing has often been neglected and treated as the ‘poor man’ of the project.

    Fortunately, businesses are starting to realize the importance of SAP testing.

    In December 2021, SAPinsider released a benchmark report, ''. This report looked at the dramatically fast pace of change experienced by SAP customers.

    The report found:?

    "nearly half of the respondents are unsatisfied with their change management and testing functions. There is a desire to modernize change management and testing across the SAP landscape. Further, SAP S/4HANA plans are likely to accelerate modernization in change management and testing."

    The desire to modernize is clearly a positive, but many organizations are held back by their current test tools and approaches. To accelerate SAP testing, they need to embrace modern testing tools

    To reach peak release frequency, SAP testing must evolve at the same pace as delivery.

    Long SAP Testing Cycles Used to be Normal

    The report also stated:

    "SAP teams, used to multi-year development projects followed by years of maintenance, must now adapt to this rapid, multi-modal development world. Change management and testing functions ?become critical to meet this scenario, yet many customers struggle with them"

    Most of you will recognize this scenario, especially if you've been involved with SAP projects for a while. The fact is, SAP Projects used to last for years, and testing took up a good chunk of that time.

    There Has Always Been a Desire to Reduce Testing

    Of course, there has always been a will to reduce testing time. Test teams are often simply informed they have less time – start later but finish on the same date. I’ve managed lots of SAP testing projects, and they’ve all been squeezed to some degree. The business decided to cut corners and known risks were introduced.?

    Reduced testing was far from ideal, but it was accepted by stakeholders. In their opinion, they could afford to have a long-term view of their SAP implementation.

    After all, once implemented, the SAP solution would remain relatively unchanged for the next few years. Defects could often be worked-around and fixed in time. At least in theory.

    However, in reality, most defects generally remain unfixed. This can have long lasting impacts on business benefits and user experience, while incurring high levels of technical debt. In essence, the final solution never fully achieves what it bought to do.

    How to Modernize Your SAP Testing

    Nowadays, SAP solutions evolve rapidly. You can’t afford to reduce testing, instead, you need to accelerate it. You just can’t achieve this with old tools.

    As stated in the report:

    “Testing today is a complex function that has to meet goals on many fronts ranging from performance, security, and user experience to integration testing. Use of technologies and automation tools are becoming a vital part of the testing function.”

    In other words, to accelerate SAP testing, you need a modern test tool.

    Tools like 名媛直播?(formerly Qualibrate) provide automation, accelerated manual testing, and are easily maintainable. These alone can take weeks off your SAP project timelines. But it’s not just the latest SAP technology that benefits from using modern test tools.?

    名媛直播 has a unified and consistent automation engine that supports all SAP UI frameworks.?

    Project teams can create robust and maintainable test assets. With modern tools, automation doesn’t just fall over and die. Your scripts live throughout delivery and into BAU.

    You can accelerate project testing, UAT, and regression testing in one fell swoop.?

    SAP testing often struggles to keep up with Rapid SAP projects. Often, projects are using cumbersome old tools to test modern dynamic projects.
