SAP S/4HANA Migration Guide Key Steps for Faster, Safer SAP Updates
SAP S/4HANA Migration Guide Key Steps for Faster, Safer SAP Updates Tricentis | SAP S/4HANA Migration Guide | 1 SAP customers face a major challenge when migrating their businesses to S/4HANA. While upgrading to S/4HANA promises many benefits, it is not without risk. Not only will the migration impact SAP applications, but also the customizations and connected technologies (UIs, APIs, mobile, databases, third-party applications, etc.) that collectively run your business. Poorly planned migrations can lead to cost overruns, system downtimes, security lapses, and other serious business consequences. And the migration is only the beginning. With S/4HANA, SAP is promising more frequent SAP updates than ever before. To prepare for these updates, organizations need to be confident that their development, testing, and training processes can handle the speed and scope required to implement these updates safely, without risk to the business. Whether your migration approach is a new implementation (greenfield approach) or system conversion (brownfield or bluefield approach), this guide will show you how to gain certainty in your roadmap to S/4HANA and avoid false starts and unexpected costs along the way. In this guide, we’ll cover the 4 crucial steps to a successful S/4HANA migration: 1. Get a custom S/4HANA migration assessment to identify the technical and business risks involved. 2. Identify the testing needed to address those risks. 3. Optimize your test suite for resilient, risk-based testing. 4. Use a continuous testing platform to automate and accelerate ongoing testing. 1. Get a Custom S/4HANA Migration Assessment Like a crystal ball, a S/4HANA migration assessment lets you see into the future.

Modernizing SAP Testing in the Energy Industry
Modernizing SAP Testing in the Energy Industry Tricentis | Modernizing Software Testing in the Energy Industry | 1 Despite the growing emphasis on digital transformation, the average test automation rate remains a dismal 18% overall— and 6% for energy companies, who are commonly working with complex systems including SAP and custom applications. This means that each time the SAP infrastructure or business processes change, enterprises rely on internal business users or dedicated manual testers to click through each critical business process and note whether the expected results are achieved at every step. As you can imagine, this is an incredibly slow and costly process: • Completing a single test cycle commonly takes weeks or even months • Testing is routinely cited as the #1 bottleneck to delivery speed • Testing consumes 30-40% of the average IT budget Now , energy companies are increasingly turning to SAP innovations such as SAP S/4HANA and SAP Cloud to optimize production, extend business processes to capitalize on new opportunities, and accelerate innovation across the value chain. As a result, the pace of change and the complexity of what needs to be tested are constantly increasing dramatically. This presents a number of challenges from a testing perspective: • Automated tests architected for previous generations of SAP platforms must be rebuilt. • Existing testing processes don’t suit the new faster (and more fragmented) release cycles, with different components evolving at different speeds. • Within the SAP ecosystem, testing must address SaaS cloud solutions such as SAP SuccessFactors, SAP Ariba, SAP Fieldglass, and SAP Hybris. • Reinvented business processes commonly extend beyond the SAP ecosystem, including APIs, mobile, mainframes, and so on—but legacy testing approaches often do not.

Continuous Load Testing: Reinventing Load Testing for Devops
Continuous Load Testing: Reinventing Load Testing for DevOps tricentis.com Executive Overview Transformational initiatives such as Agile and DevOps are compelling software development teams to change their approach to load testing. This new approach involves extending beyond late-cycle load testing by performance testing specialists and empowering developers and testers to perform early, continuous load testing. Flood IO is built to enable load testing for DevOps, helping DevTest teams gain performance feedback rapidly and continuously. In addition to supporting industry-leading load testing tools, Flood integrates with Tricentis Tosca—allowing users to perform load testing with the same scriptless tests they use for functional testing. For DevOps, Load Testing Shifts Left Over 91% of organizations already have Agile or DevOps initiatives or plan to adopt them within the immediate future. As part of the process transformation required to adopt these more iterative and rapid methods of delivering software, organizations need to reassess ALL practices associated with software development and test—including load and performance testing. Traditionally, load testing has been deferred until the late phases of waterfall release cycles. Specialized performance testers applied legacy load testing tools to validate application performance prior to release. Why is this no longer sufficient? • With teams moving to more componentized applications (including cloud-native apps, microservices, etc.), an application involves many highly-distributed components—and

Integration Overview How Tricentis Qtest and Neoload Can Provide a Unified View of Application Quality
INTEGRATION OVERVIEW HOW TRICENTIS QTEST AND NEOLOAD CAN PROVIDE A UNIFIED VIEW OF APPLICATION QUALITY These days, more QA/Testing and Developer teams are opening up their testing process to stakeholders across the organization by tracking functional requirements, manual and automated test cases, testing coverage, and other vital elements and metrics of the testing process. Having all this data available in one solution allows all business stakeholders, including product owners to have a single, unified vision of their quality systems. Performance Management is Different Performance management always stands apart and get managed differently than other business-critical processes - including the way the results of performance testing are shared. Sharing performance reports have traditionally been done by exchanging documents, emails, presentations, or by editing an Excel spreadsheet. Today’s best practices for performance testing include exposing all performance data to developers with the help of CI/CD plugins. Organizations that have adopted Agile workflows and processes are finding that moving towards adoption of a DevOps approach is becoming a mandatory step if they want to get the most benefit for stakeholders across the business - Developers, QA managers, and products owners - from their performance testing insight. Value for Business Stakeholders Non-technical managers and business executives, who are not performance testing practitioners, do not need to understand all the in-depth technical details of performance testing to make informed decisions or efficiently manage performance testing projects. But, they still need some level of deep insight into the performance of applications to make directional, investment and resource decisions. This need makes it a business imperative to expose performance testing results and KPI to managers and other non-testing stakeholders across the business, directly from Test Management solutions such as qTest.

Performance Testing for the Modern Enterprise Executive Summary
LoadRunner vs. NeoLoad: Why Change? Performance Testing for the Modern Enterprise Executive Summary Enterprises are increasingly finding that their performance testing has not kept pace with advances in software development. Development cycles are getting shorter, with new applications, microservices, APIs and features being released faster and faster. But all too often performance testing remains a highly manual, time-consuming undertaking that requires expertise and specialized know-how. Performance testing has become a bottleneck. That’s why organizations are looking for a more modern and productive alternative that breaks down the silos of expertise, clears the QA logjam and gives every team — experts and non-experts alike — the ability to test faster, cost-effectively, across a broad range of enterprise needs. Because how do you release fast when QA is stuck? And get unstuck when that requires deep expertise not shared by the organization at large? NeoLoad accommodates different types of testers across the entire organization. Everyone from centralized performance engineering experts doing complex end- to-end testing in a traditional approach to autonomous users testing individual components and APIs in a DevOps environment. They use one solution to test monolithic packaged apps like SAP or Oracle, and to automate API tests. With NeoLoad, your teams require less time to do more work, more accurately, with fewer people. You can have your experts focus on things with higher strategic value instead of the “grunt work” of perpetually maintaining and rewriting scripts every time code changes. Enterprise Performance Testing for Today’s Reality Enterprises are finding that the performance testing practices, methodologies and tools that have served them well for the past 10–15 years are no longer sufficient to meet the pace of today’s faster release cycles.

About Tricentis 21 INTRODUCTION This guide presents pragmatic considerations and experienced-based best practices for performance engineers looking to automate performance testing in CI/CD pipelines. The #1 challenge we hear from those responsible for performance testing is the difficulty in keeping up with the pace and scale of development teams so that you can deliver performance feedback early and often. They’re caught in a crossfire between performance being more imperative than ever — slow or buggy systems and applications have a material impact on customers/users, brand reputation, and bottom-line revenue — and releases coming faster than ever. The clock speed of testing is mismatched to the speed of development. With today’s automated builds taking minutes — not hours (or days) — integrating continuous performance testing into automated pipelines is the only answer.
