Automated performance testing

[Former Member]

Hi community,

we are looking for a possibility to test the report performance for different scenarios, e.g. 20/100/200 users accessing BEx reports at the same time. Doing this manually will be difficult because it requires a lot of users who need to run reports at the same time to simulate the different server workloads. Does any of you know a possibility of automating this process? Is it possible to trigger report execution via ABAP reports or something like that?

All input welcome - thanks in advance,

Manuel

hi Manuel,

you can check the workload with transaction ST03, choose 'expert mode' and expand 'bw workload', here you can see the query execution time. or setup bw statistic, check doc 'how to setup bw statistic' https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/5401ab90-0201-0010-b394-99f...

hope this helps.

Hi A.H.P.,

thanks for your hint, but I do not need a possibility to check the current workload - I need to "produce" different workloads to test the system behaviour depending on the number of users executing reports simultaneously. Thus I am looking for a way to produce this workload automatically, e.g. by an ABAP report, VBA or other programming languages/tools/whatever

All input welcome - thanks in advance,

Manuel
