Organizations that implement SAP ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) do so to manage complex business operations and to help them adapt to new market challenges. SAP ERP has been gaining huge importance in recent times as it helps organizations to improve business workflows. SAP is an ERP system that integrates all the different modules in an organization.

SAP testing is performed to test the functionality of these different modules and to ensure that their performance is according to expectations. SAP systems usually have to deal with many changes, including patch management and fixes and new module implementations. All these changes call for effective testing to ensure that all modules perform according to the configuration. Our SAP experts help organizations realize the full potential of their SAP investments and mitigate the risks by incorporating a trusted test approach.

Our Complete Range of SAP Testing Services

We are a leading SAP testing service providing company and provide a complete range of SAP testing service, including -

1. End-to-end Testing Services

   

   Our end-to-end testing services combine both manual and automated testing, and significantly mitigate the risk of errors and defects in your SAP system, right through the planning and implementation stages through to the deployment stage. We devise detailed test cases and methodologies for every deployment, execution phase, and modules of SAP to ensure that the entire system delivers you the desired productivity goals.

2. Functional Testing Services

   

   With frequent changes and updates, to various functional units of SAP, our quick functional and regression testing will ensure that all the functional units deliver the desired output. We also ensure that the whole process does not cause any stoppages or breaks in the application.

3. Performance Testing Services

   

   Our performance testing will not only analyze the performance of your SAP deployment at peak loads but also help you with fine-tuning the SAP technology stacks including your host platform, network infrastructure, database, software components, module interactions, etc. so that peak performance of your SAP system escalates.

4. Test Automation Services

   

   With manual testing dominating the scene during the entire SAP deployment stage, it becomes more important to enable SAP automation testing wherever possible. With our expertise spanning the entire SAP setup phases, we clearly understand when to implement test automation and the right areas where both manual, as well as automation testing, can work in tandem to get the desired results. This drastically improves the performance and minimizes the implementation time.

5. Test Frameworks Services

   

   With our profound expertise in testing SAP deployments, we can give you a complete testing framework that is flexible and robust to accommodate any changes based on your specific needs. This framework does not stick to status quo manual testing procedures and gives you customized testing procedures, tools, schedules, analysis, reporting systems, etc.

6. Test Optimization Services

   

   Most test systems and procedures are just designed to meet the basic testing needs, they ignore max performance and max risk mitigation capabilities of the procedure. This is where our test optimization services come into the picture, and fine-tunes your existing system through testing integration, combining procedures, increasing testing efficiency, prioritizing, etc., to ensure that your whole testing infrastructure runs optimally.

7. Customized Testing Services

   

   If you just want to get some critical units like SAP FICO or even a sub-module comprehensively tested or if you are on a budget or are planning to achieve phase-wise testing comprehensiveness, then our customized testing can quickly deliver the desired results for you.

8. Unit Testing Services

   

   We use unit testing to test the functionality of SAP systems and their various components. Domain and configuration experts who understand the functionality of each unit in the system are the ones who do this work.

9. System Testing Services

   

   In this, we integrate elements of the SAP system to ensure that the related SAP functionality is linked in the development environment.

10. Scenario-based Testing Services

    

    We perform scenario testing as per specific business cases.

11. Integration Testing Services

    

    Here, testing data comes from real data extraction sources. The data is known to business end-users. Integration testing is mainly used to show that the SAP business process runs using real-world data. In addition, the testing will show whether the interface triggers, reports, and workflows are working.

12. SAP Interface Testing Services

    

    Interface testing is performed to ensure that a process on a SAP system runs automatically, that the events are triggered, and that the results are transferred to the receiver system. With interface testing, execution on the sending system is followed by automatic creation of the interface output, following which the receiving system uses that file and demonstrates that a business process continues at the receiver.

    Ideally, interface testing should involve larger testing activities as the project develops. Interface testing demonstrates that triggering works, that the data selection is accurate and complete, that the data transfer is successful, and that the receiver can consume the sent data.

13. SAP User Acceptance Testing Services

    

    SAP UAT or User Acceptance Testing is done to ensure that end-users can perform their assigned functions with the new system. Here, it is important to understand the business requirement and make sure that the expected features, capabilities, and functions are available.

14. SAP System Performance Testing Services

    

    With performance testing, the following aspects are checked for whether -

    \

    • The system response time is acceptable
    • The periodic processes are running within a permissible time
    • The anticipated user load can be supported

    With performance testing, blocks and coding inefficiencies can be identified in the SAP system. It is usually unlikely that the performance of the system is optimum.

15. SAP Load Testing Services

    

    Here, the tester applies the maximum load on the system, either through online users or through periodic batch processing, and determines whether the system is capable of handling the load. If not, the steps needed to improve performance are determined.

16. SAP Security and Authorizations Testing Services

    

    Here, we ensure that users are only able to accomplish transactions and access the appropriate data that is relevant to their project.

    Similar to the implementation of security standards, this testing is really important to determine if security and authorization are working in a system.

17. SAP Cutover Testing Services

    

    Cutover testing is generally performed only once in a project lifecycle. Here a full-scale execution is performed of all the tasks involved in extracting data from legacy systems. Subsequently, to perform any type of data conversion, the results are loaded into the SAP system and the results are fully validated, including a user sign-off.

18. SAP Regression Testing Services

    

    This is used to find new functionalities and to test prior functionalities in a SAP system either when it is upgraded or when a new system is set up. The most important purpose of regression testing is to test and confirm the existing functionality as well as the newly updated codebase.

    When a SAP system is upgraded or a patch is applied, it shouldn’t affect the functionality expected to be accomplished by the users. Furthermore, it should not affect any of the new features introduced in a new release.

19. SAP Consulting Services

    

    We provided end-to-end SAP consulting services including -

    • Test Recommendations

      We can analyze your entire SAP requirements and give you a complete end-to-end test recommendation, which includes an exhaustive list of do's and don'ts to develop a testing ecosystem.
