By any yardstick, SAP implementations are very arduous, complex and notorious for running late and over budget. Automated software testing makes a world of difference in making a positive difference to the three key factors of any SAP implementation: time, cost and quality.
Qsome's automated software testing solution is proven to deliver valuable outcomes and business benefits during and after SAP projects. Our customers save multiples for every dollar spent with us and use the time saved by their teams to focus on innovation that grows their business.
While some SAP implementation consultants advise customers to use SAP's pre-packaged tools for testing, these tools are cumbersome to use, expensive to deploy and difficult to maintain. Further, it is very difficult to use SAP's pre-packaged test tools to conduct cross-system test automation where your SAP system is required to interact with other applications.
Qsome's test automation framework has been specifically designed to run automated regression tests of end-to-end processes, irrespective of the applications that a process traverses or the types of devices on which it runs. Think of our solution as future-proofing your SAP software testing program.
If you are planning, managing or holding the purse strings for an SAP implementation, talking to us about how we work our magic could be the difference between diminishing or enhancing your professional reputation. Why not ask us for a case study?

The Business Case For SAP Test Automation
"One-third of the cost of a package implementation is being spent on software quality issues, and testing accounts for 40% of maintenance efforts.”
Successful SAP test automation programs have three characteristics in common: empowered decision-makers, the use of user stories instead of traditional processes and testing tools that make life simpler for the testing team.
The extent to which these characteristics work in unison dictates not only the cost and time savings that can be achieved, but also the additional revenue or profit-generating business value that the automated SAP software testing program can drive. The exact numbers that prove the ROI of test automation programs will make you a believer.

Benefits of Qsome's Test Automation for SAP
End-to-End System Coverage
SAP seldom works in a vacuum. So our automation of end-to-end processes includes not only SAP, but also encompasses other applications in the ecosystem and the various devices on which the process is undertaken. Our SAP test automation doesn't just test features, it ensures that your IT processes work seamlessly to allow your business to grow.
Reduce Testing From Days To Hours
Our SAP test automation framework is so intuitive that a business user who has no testing experience can execute a batch of automated tests with zero training and only a few clicks. Executing automated tests is made faster and smarter with Qsome's testing tools where functional tests that normally take weeks or days can be run in mere hours.
Slash Your Cost of Software Testing
Automated testing for any large application suite results in long-term costs savings. When that automation is applied to SAP implementations, the savings are only enhanced. Additionally, the automated regression suite that we produce can be used for future automated tests after your SAP system is patched or upgraded. Two birds, one stone.Ready to witness the magic?
