Embedding intelligence into our products has been the main focus topic for this release. The 2402 Cloud Release introduces new features around AI/ML for advanced error analysis and functions which build on the tool being an integrated part of the SAP S/4HANA Cloud solution.

Intelligent Test Scoper(i-TS)

The new Intelligent Test Scoper(i-TS) app leverages the embedded nature of the test automation tool to provide an optimized scope based on the code changes done as part of a major release or SAP Continuous Integration and Delivery . The app currently suggests Post Upgrade Tests(PUT) Standard Scripts which cover the changes done in the particular software update. The consolidated list of automates provide a more efficient and optimized scope for running PUT.

The i-TS app is integrated with the Manage Upgrade Tests(MUT) solution and provides a one click option of moving the optimized scope to a new execution variant. The execution variant created is marked as “optimized” scope and will be then available for PUT in the Test Your Process(TYP) application.

You can read more about the evolution of the i-TS tool here.

ABAP Units as part of Post Upgrade Tests(PUT)

Embedded Steampunk allows customers and partners to create cloud-ready and upgrade-stable ABAP extensions. There is a need to ensure these extensions work well release on release. With the feature of ABAP Units as part of the PUT process we enable customers to test their custom ABAP Units as part of the release regression suite. MUT application has been enhanced with an additional tab “ABAP Units” where users can add ABAP Units to an execution variant and utilize it in the PUT run. Results will be shown on the PUT track results page, the information can be downloaded as an excel file and further actions can be taken up in ABAP Development Tool(ADT).

Automation Failure Classification(AFC)

While the feature of AFC has been available in the Analyse Automated Test Results(AATR) application for some time, from this release you would be able to see if the classification has happened via “ML Text Classification” or “Regular Expressions”. AFC is now able to categorize close to 70% of the automate failures. This features also provides Recommendations to solve the automate error based on the error message and classification.

 Additional Innovations

Some additional features which increase the overall user experience are as follows:

  • The ”Execution Variant” tab is now deprecated and all relevant PUT scope grouped into an execution variant called Default PUT Scope
  • Restriction on deleting execution variants that has been executed before or the one currently being executed

The total list of SAP delivered automated test scripts are 414 for 2402 and can be accessed via link – Automated Test Scripts Index”. This includes 8 new scope items which were added this release.
