SAP Solution Manager automated authorization testing possible?

[sugenc]

Hi there,

I implemented SAP Solution Manager CTBA for automated tests. One reason for automated testing is to minimize tests efforts during SAP 4/H upgrades each year. During upgrades we always have problems with our business roles due to the fact that authorization objects change, so we have to tests the business roles either.

Has anyone have an idea how to tests business roles / authorizations with SolMan CBTA or is there an alternative?

Many thank in advance and best regards,

Suzan

Hello Suzan,

CBTA is a functional test automation tool, which is primarily used to automate and test the functionality of the application by building the regression test suite.

Within the CBTA automated test script we provide Test profile which has the user login information. So generally we use generic user for automated functional testing so that we do not have to change the Test profile within the CBTA test script.

So if you have to run the same automated script eg: VA01 with different roles then either you have to create multiple scripts with different test profile information or edit the test script for test profile information to execute with different roles.

Thanks,

Aj

Hello Ajay,

thanks for the quick response. I understand that it might have not been important to test the roles with CBTA. Since to moved to S/4 we have to tests the roles as with every new release some authorization objects change so we must test the roles. Ist there a chance to concider this aspect for the new SAP Solution Manager release?

Many thanks and best regards,

Suzan
