SAP TAO
Advantages
1. The SAP Test Acceleration and
Optimization (SAP TAO) software streamlines the creation and maintenance of ERP
business process testing.
2. SAP TAO helps QA Specialists to break
down applications into components.
3. Assembled into test cases through a
simple interface using drag and drop.
4. Parameterized for flexible reuse, such
as reusing a test that has updated data inputs.
5. Maintained easily and inexpensively,
even when screens, flows, or service packs change.
6. Automated testing with SAP TAO maximizes
7. Testing Deployment
8. SAP TAO, in tandem with HP Quality
Center, dramatically reduces the amount of time required to build and execute
test scripts.
9. Reuse
10. SAP TAO eliminates the need to create
new tests whenever a component changes. If one component changes in a group of
tests, just replace that component and then re-consolidate the tests.
11. Maintenance
12. SAP TAO allows you to record component
parameters. SAP TAO provides a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet to save parameters
for reuse and maintenance. You can also move components from HP Quality Center
to SAP TAO for additional backup possibilities.

Testing Process
Below Process describes how to test a
simple business process with SAP TAO and HP Quality Center. It assumes that you
can access a SAP back-end server that executes the business process
transactions you are testing, access to HP Quality Center, and a properly
installed and connected SAP TAO Client on your desktop.
1. Discuss the process flow with the
subject matter expert.
2. Create a business process test case with
detailed steps.
3. Run the steps manually within the test
application to make sure the application generates without errors or warning
messages.
4. Open HP Quality Center to view the list
of your selected components.
Drag
and drop the transactions in the order that they occur in the business process.
HP
Quality Center includes a list of common screen commands, such as Open, Enter,
and Exit. Move the screen commands using drag and drop as needed.
5. Parameterize the data in the Excel
spreadsheet or the HP Quality Center database.
6. On SAP TAO, consolidate the data into a
single component that consists of the transaction code and screen operations.
7. In the HP Quality Center, create a
second business process script using the single component.
8. Execute the test script and review it
for any discrepancies.
9. Save the components in a directory that
you can easily access when you need to update a screen or a transaction.
