SAP Testing

One of the major challenges with large scale SAP implementations is testing and quality assurance of the implementation. This includes roll outs, upgrades, hot packs, and customizations. Inaccurate implementation can result in heavy overheads on maintenance and management. Incomplete or a non-comprehensive test plan can create underlying errors in the implementation that can create inconsistency in data. These errors usually take a few years to surface, by which time the damage would have already been done.

However, more often than not, inaccurate implementation is caused due to the lack of a streamlined test process and the lack of domain expertise within the testers. Building an error free SAP implementation requires an ability to envision possible defects and create countermeasures within the test plan. This ensures that the deployment is tested thoroughly and consistently.

MindTree provides test services via a defined streamlined test approach ensuring structured testing which would minimize risk, cost and effort for any SAP implementation. MindTree leverages its SAP practice to bring in domain experts who work in close collaboration with the testing experts to create the optimum test strategy and accelerated execution plan.

SAP Test Services & Focus Areas

Maximizing the value and ROI from SAP requires:

• Correct implementation and customization of SAP based on documented requirements
• Extensive tests for end-to-end business scenarios

MindTree - SAP Testing Process

MindTree's test process is based on SAP's ASAP methodology. This methodology is designed to ensure a well defined process with guidelines and checklists at every phase of the test life cycle so that the verification of the SAP implementation is evaluated periodically.

• SAP test process facilitates the execution of functional, automation and performance testing in the same process
• SAP automation framework facilitates rapid test development during the ASAP business blueprint and project realization phases
