Application Lifecycle Management

Text

SAP’s Application Lifecyle Management Framework offers best practices, one process hierarchy, one methodology and tool-set, enabling E2E traceability and proactive support.

Let’s step back from the challenges for a minute and take a look at the broader picture to better understand the root cause of these issues.

Innovation, market dynamics and digital transformation initiatives require continuous change; and continuous change affect your end-to-end business processes, which can be complex and span multiple SAP and third-party software systems, as noted from the survey results. SAP Application Lifecycle Management framework provides the foundation and end to end connectivity between process changes, software design, build, test, deploy, operate, and a full feedback loop to make and activate new any additional changes in a systematic and properly managed solution.

SAP application testing solutions by Tricentis provide the automation, integration with SAP and non-SAP applications, and eliminate the silos.

This helps:

Accelerate digital transformation and intelligent operations.

Reduce business risk associated with application changes.

Support agile and DevOps development methodologies.

SAP Enterprise Performance Testing

SAP Enterprise Performance Testing

SAP Enterprise Performance Testing helps ensure applications can meet performance, capacity, stress, and peak user requirements, while reducing business risk, speeding application time to value, and lowering overall testing costs.

SAP Enterprise Performance Testing simplifies performance testing from development to production, helping teams take a standardized approach to ensure continuous performance, reliability, and scalability.

The solution lets you test drive the applications under a variety of traffic and network conditions, using test scripts rather than code, so performance bottlenecks can be identified and removed prior to going live. You can provision and run tests quickly, simulate global traffic, support load testing at both the network protocol or browser level, and scale from tens to tens of millions of users in minutes.

The solution reduces the complexity of distributed load testing, simulating real-world conditions and helping identify risks and resolve issues quickly to prevent expensive downtime.

Key capabilities SAP Enterprise Performance Testing
