Hi,

Has anyone used the data in eCATT Test Data Containers for testing in ABAP Unit? Or would anyone know how to call the data container within ABAP Unit?

Thanks,

Jason

Hello Jason

Test Data Containers are used to modularize test data for eCATT scripts which usually test a process or parts of a process.

In contrast, ABAP Unit Tests are on a much lower level where you check the input/output of methods, fm's etc.

For sure you will find function modules that will read the values out of eCATT test data containers yet I do not think these two different testing approaches should be intermingled that way.

Regards

Uwe
