BCO 5651 eCATT Script Testing Technology Homework Assignment

This document presents a comprehensive solution to an eCATT script testing assignment, addressing key concepts and practical applications. The assignment covers the definition and maintenance of test scripts, test configuration, and error handling within the SAP environment. It explores the differences between manual and automated testing using eCATT, explaining the role of test drivers and parameterization. The solution clarifies the purpose of diverse script types, the appropriate testing systems to use, and the benefits of eCATT. Finally, it distinguishes between test configuration and test scripts. The assignment provides detailed answers, including references, to enhance understanding of the eCATT testing tool and its functionalities.

Q1. Define test script and analyse if it’s possible to maintain dissimilar varieties of a test
script?
This can be defined instructions that are performed in software’s to assess whether they
function as projected. Basically, script testing is doable in many different ways (Guru99.com,
2019). Therefore, test script can be conserved in diverse ways.
Q2. Define test configuration. Explain if one can have unlike forms for a test
configuration?
It’s a type of testing that seeks to assess whether the application works smoothly with
different hardware’s and software’s. Hence, it’s possible to maintain unlike forms of
configuration testing.
Q3. What do the words “Object can only be created in SAP package” mean as used in
creating test script?
When such a text appears while creating a script, it means the script has an error and
cannot proceed effectively. Hence, someone needs to click okay button to proceed further.
Q4. What type is an eCATT manual testing or automation testing tool? Discuss also the
variance between automation and manual testing
Manual testing is when the testing is done by human beings while, automation is when
there is help of machines thus, eCATT is an automatic testing since it uses java and SAP UI for
windows (Erpworkbench.com, 2019).

Q5. Meaning of test driver and mention the one used in this lesson? Other types test
drivers?
Test drivers are modules used temporary in order to test if the structure will work
effectively as planned. The tutorial under review has used the TCD driver. Examples are; web
service driver, web Dynpro driver, and management transaction among others
Q6. Meaning of parameterization in eCATT and the number of constraints that exists in
eCATT. Name the parameter in this lecture.
Parameterization is the process of handing over values to scripts that is later handed over
to interface of the test body (Answers.sap.com, 2019). In eCATT we have the following forms of
limitations: local variables, import and export. In this tutorial we have used the parameter to
import as it’s easier to use and implement.
Q7. Why do we have diverse types of a test script?
By maintaining dissimilar scrip forms we are able to come up with the most effective and
efficient one. In addition, the different scripts acts as backup in case one fails.
Q8. Do we use production or quality assurance systems to test eCATT?
As for me in order to test eCATT I will use development system as it’s cheaper and easy
to use (Allinterview.com, 2019).

Q9. Benefits of eCATT
ECATT is auto hence, it’s able to exhibit the following advantages: reduces testing time,
errors that arises from the manual systems are reduced, and reduces the workforce for concluding
a certain task among many others (Erpworkbench.com, 2019).
Q10. Explain the variance between test configuration and test script?
Configuration of a test is basically, testing systems to ensure that they will run smoothly
while, a test scripts are commands that are put in a system for it to deliver different tasks (Anon,
2019).
