Hi Sebastian,
Thanks for great question. Let me try to list down certain difference between SAP S/4HANA Cloud Test Automation Tool (TAT) and Tricentis Test Automation (TTA).
1. The TAT is available in your SAP S/4HANA Cloud Quality Systems and you can access it by adding the SAP_BR_TEST_ADMIN_AUTOMATION role your business user. In comparison to that, TTA needs to installed on your machine and then can be integrated with Solution Manager. For more details please follow the link:-How-to: Integrate Tricentis Tosca with SAP Solution Manager 7.2 technically
2. TAT delivers automated test scripts for most of the standard business processes. Customers can leverage the already delivered automated scripts or modify the existing scripts using the recording functionality in the tool to full fill their business requirements and build there automation suite. The total list of SAP delivered automated test scripts are 330 for 2111 and can be accessed via link – Automated Test Scripts Index. However, for the TTA the customer has to build their automation scripts from scratch as SAP is not delivering any TTA automated scripts as of now.
3. TAT covers most of the SAP UIs and supports only SAP S/4HANA Cloud applications. On the other hand TTA supports automation of all SAPUIs (WebDynpro, GUI, UI5, etc) and other SAP Cloud products like Success Factor, Ariba, Concur, etc.
4. TAT can test APIs available in Manage Your Test Process Application ( as of now only Finance, Sales, Procurement and Manufacturing areas are supported). In comparison to that TTA can test any API available.
5. TAT supports Post Upgrade Test for the Live Customers. For more information on PUT, please refer to the PUT blog. For the TTA no such service is planned as of now.
After listing down the most common difference between both the tools, let me answer the second part of the questions. Why should your use on on the other-
1. If your scope it only limited to SAP S/4HANA Cloud ( not involving much of integration with other SAP Products like Success Factor, Ariba, etc) and also your scope is matching more or less to the SAP Standard process, SAP TAT tool will be the best approach. On the other hand if your solution has too many integrations with other SAP Products, using TTA will be a better option.
2. If you require support in your regression testing by using the Post Upgrade Test Service, TAT will be a good option. As of now TTA has no plans for supporting the Post Upgrade Tests.
3. Tricentis Test Automation is one automation engine for on premise and SAP Cloud together with SAP Enterprise Continuous Testing by Tricentis (ECT*) for non SAP Applications, so if you have a integrations with non SAP Products Tricentis will be helpful.
4. If you are extensively using API testing for your business TTA (Tricentis) will be a good option as the Test Automation Tool (TAT) is still evolving and planning to bring all APIs onboarded from the API hub.
*Note: ECT is available on SAP Price List.
Also, there are other Tricentis products for Load Testing and Risk-based Test Scope definition available on SAP Price List-
Now, answering the last part of the question with respect to integration with Cloud ALM-
Currently, SAP/ S4HANA Cloud Test Automation tool can be integrated to Cloud ALM. For Tricentis Automation tool, a web product of Tosca is planned to be integrated with Cloud ALM in near future.
SAP Solution Manager integrates with the on-premise products from Tricentis ECT (known as Tosca) and TTA.
I hope this gives you some insights on the SAP S/4HANA Cloud Test Automation Tool and Tricentis Test Automation tool.
Regards,
Sonam
