Tricentis Test Automation for SAP provides tools for authoring automated test cases, managing test data, and supporting various SAP UIs and APIs.

To test business processes within SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, use the built-in Test Automation Tool via the Test Your Processes SAP Fiori app. Since this tool is already embedded for internal processes, the primary role of Tricentis Test Automation for SAP is to automate complex, cross-system integration tests.

Hint

For example, you can automate a scenario where a new user is created in an HR system and then verify that the user record appears correctly in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.

Both Tricentis Test Automation for SAP and the embedded Test Automation Tool integrate with SAP Cloud ALM. This integration allows you to monitor and manage all automated test results from a single, centralized dashboard.
