Test Automation Tool upgrade checklist (Public Edition)

  • Map each configured process to the automate that really represents it; copy and adapt standard automates for customized processes.
  • Name an owner for every custom automate; update it with every configuration change, not just at upgrade time.
  • Business test user: Manage Workforce, password via Identity Authentication, realistic business roles with read/write catalogs, named DEFAULT unless steps say otherwise.
  • Corporate identity provider? Configure conditional authentication before the first plan runs.
  • Integration steps: communication users from existing arrangements in the Role column.
  • Plans: select processes in business order; set country/region and company code on Variants; use your own test data container.
  • Keep a data top-up routine so repeated runs do not fail for lack of stock or open items.
  • Six weeks out: confirm users, passwords and owners; get a green baseline before the test system upgrade.
  • In the window: analyze the first failed step; classify as upgrade, configuration, automate, data or user/environment; fix and rerun.
  • Sign-off: automated and manual results and linked defects in SAP Cloud ALM; post-upgrade test results reviewed by process owners.
