Test Creation and Maintainability
R/3 business analysts and application users can quickly
capture tests which verify each R/3 business process and
assure that data is properly processed by the system.
Business process verification procedures are stored as
easy-to-read tests which are self-documented, simple to
understand, and easily maintained as R/3 configuration
changes are made. AutoTester ONE Special Edition for
SAP creates object-aware tests which adjust as software
changes are introduced, configuration data is changed,
or new Clients or Instances are created.
The AutoTester ONE Special Edition for SAP specialized
R/3 command set allows tests to intelligently interact
with each R/3 object at the system level, thus reducing
maintenance and enabling tests to be easily migrated to
new versions of R/3. Your tests provide true
verification of R/3 object state and contents even if
those objects change location on your R/3 screens. When
test modification is necessary, your tests can be edited
in context with your R/3 solution and then executed
immediately from any point. Tests can also be edited
off-line with AutoTester ONE Special Edition for SAP or
any text editor.
Unattended Test Execution
With AutoTester ONE Special Edition for SAP, your
organization realizes the benefits of true unattended
R/3 testing. AutoTester ONE Special Edition for SAP
tests are reliable and intelligent complete with logic
that duplicates your own expectations and decisions.
During test playback, AutoTester ONE Special Edition for
SAP provides on-the-fly verification of R/3 object
contents and state, displayed text values regardless of
font, and complex bitmap images. Tests are replayed
unattended and at machine speed.
Comprehensive reporting and error tracking indicate
exactly what is working and what is not. When an error
occurs during execution, AutoTester ONE Special Edition
for SAP automatically identifies the problem and
adjusts accordingly to continue testing. Advanced
recovery options log application failures and system
errors and continue the testing process.
AutoTester ONE Special Edition for SAP can even restart
your operating system or machine if necessary. AutoTester ONE Special Edition for SAP also contains
specialized R/3 playback synchronization which ensures
proper test playback regardless of system performance.
Tests automatically sense the state of the R/3
application server and wait until it is ready for Input
to continue test playback.
Automated Documentation and Reporting
AutoTester ONE Special Edition for SAP documents every
step of each test automatically, and in plain language.
R/3 tests are easily identified by test case numbers and
test requirement identifiers and include detailed
descriptions for reference purposes. After test
execution, detailed results are available on-line or in
report format for immediate review and analysis. With AutoTester ONE Special Edition for SAP you can:
View summary and detail results of each R/3 test run
on-line in a customizable format with the Results Viewer

details each test step and whether it passed or failed

details of each failure
Advanced Scripting Capabilities
AutoTester ONE Special Edition for SAP contains a
powerful scripting language which is used to supplement
your captured tests or to develop tests before your R/3
system is completed. The scripting language is presented

to incorporate conditional branching, looping, and
external test case data into their R/3 tests.
