ECatt in webdynpro

Hi
I require some guidance regarding using ecatt for testing purpose for webdynpro for java and ep applications.
I have not tried this ever so I would appreciate a detailed information.
Thanks

Extended Computer Aided Test Tool (eCATT) to create and execute functional tests for software. The primary aim is the automatic testing of SAP business processes. Each test generates a detailed log that documents the test process and results.

ECatt - ABAP WebDynpro - Floorplan Manager

Does anyone know how to create eCatt scripts for ABAP WebDynpro applications that contain Application Configurations using the Floorplan Manager. We are using SRM 7.0 and all user transactions are WebDynpro based. In order to regression test changes to certain development objects we want to utilize eCatt. However, the WebDynpro applications all use the Floorplan Manager concept in SRM. So, there is one basic WebDynpro Application Component (FPM_OIF_COMPONENT). There are multiple WebDynpro Applications defined (in our example, /sapsrm/wda_l_fpm_oif) for this one application component. Within this Application, there are multiple application configurations (in our example /SAPSRM/WDAC_I_FPM_OIF_SC_PROF).
Does anyone know if:
A. eCatt supports WebDynpro ABAP (I have seen many old posts that indicate WebDynpro ABAP is not supported but nothing recent)
B. How to create test scripts using Application components with multiple applications and multiple application configurations.
Thanks!

Thanks Thomas for your quick reply.
Thomas Jung wrote:
Testing is done via Web Dynpro Application. So you would need to create an application (even if just temporary for testing) for each configuration set that has the application configuration built into the application parameters.
A point of clarification:
Within the WebDynpro Component (FPM_OIF_COMPONENT in my example), I would need to create a new Application and then a new Application Configuration that is an exact copy of the Application configuration used in the standard SAP ? If yes, that is a significant undertaking for these new SRM applications. Since this Floorplan Manager concept seems to be the wave of the future is there any plan to allow eCatt to use the input of the Application Configuration rather than (or in addition to) the WD Application itself?
Regardless, thanks again, I have been searching for this answer for a few days now.

Is it possible to test Web Dynpro by using ECATT?

Can any of you give me some suggestion?
Thanks and best regards,
Anders

On Java stack - yes ( [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/16/d3643fce8bb01ae10000000a114084/frameset.htm|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/16/d3643fce8bb01ae10000000a114084/frameset.htm])

How To Handle Error Message In TCD Recording?

Hi All,
I tried recording a transaction (my own transaction) by not enterring value in an obligatory field. the error message came. but when i executed the script, it showed an error. but actualy, the error message was expected right? how to handle this situation? i tried with tcd and sapgui recording. both gave almot the same result.
i am including the script which i have written.
MESSAGE ( MSG_1 ).
*TCD ( ZCUST , ZCUST_1 , ECC ).
SAPGUI ( SAP_1 , ECC ).
ENDMESSAGE ( E_MSG_1 ).
v_mno = &tfill.
v_msg = E_MSG_1[v_mno]-msgtext.
v_mtp = E_MSG_1[v_mno]-msgtyp.
If Msg Type is E *** **** It Has To Be E ****
IF ( v_mtp = 'E' and v_msg = 'Account no AC02 does not exist EXIT = X').
logtext(0,'Passed').
ELSE.
log(v_mtp).
log(v_msg).
logtext(1,'Failed').
ENDIF.
End Of The Condition For Message Type E ******

I have recording messages using the TCD command.
My script (very simple):
MESSAGE ( MSG_2 ).
TCD ( ME21 , ME21_1 , R3 ).
ENDMESSAGE ( E_MSG_2 ).
In the MESSAGE command interface, I defined rules to allow several kind of messages.
Execution: 3 mesages found:
      * transform PR into PO
       MESSAGE     MSG_2 [1,009 sec]
         RULES MSG_2 = XML-DATA-01

           S 06 017 Standard PO created under the number 8201075606
       ENDMESSAGE E_MSG_2 (&TFILL = 0)
As you can see, 3 messages are found but the &TFILL variable is still 0.
I guess (but cannot test yet) I would manage to record those messages using SAPGUI command.
Is there anything wrong with my script?
My SAP_BASIS component is in version 620. I'm not using the ultimate version of eCATT (no WEBDYNPRO command, etc.). Could it be an explanation?
Thank you in advance,
Olivier

Searching by aggregate type field leads to error message in Workbench

I defined a persistent pojo entity that contains an attribute as an aggregate type mapping.
Now I tried to query entities with an instance of that aggregate type as parameter to the query (TL expression query in the workbench).
First argument (query key) is the attribute of the entity (aggregate type), operator is EQUAL and second argument is the parameter which is of same aggregate type.
I thought this would be the natural way to query but the workbench shows an error message:
0251 - The expression (line 1.) on query readByOwner is invalid. When querying on a reference mapping, only unary operators (Is Null, Not Null) are supported.
Is this really an error? Where is the problem?
I found a similiar post from 2003 on this forum, saying that it is a bug, though I'm unsure if it is the same problem. I use the most recent version of Toplink and Workbench, so it's hard to believe that such a basic problem was not fixed for 5 years... was it?

venkat

Hi Venkatesh,
Before you can start recording any webdynpro application make sure that the below settings are done in the ecatt system and the target system , for further information refer ecatt documentation.
Create User ECATT_HTTP in the eCATT System
The administrator in the eCATT system must create a user called ECATT_HTTP(with a password). The user requires no special authorization but must be a system user (in transaction SU01, display the user and choose the Logon data tab. Under User Type, select System).
Activate the Service ecatt_recorder in the eCATT System
       1.      In the eCATT System, start transaction SICF and navigate to the service ecatt_recorder.
       2.      Double-click on ecatt_recorder.
       3.      On the Logon Data tab, enter the user ECATT_HTTPand the password.
       4.      Choose Save.
       5.      Select ecatt_recorder and choose Service/Virtual Host -> Activate.
Activate the Service ecattping in the Target Systems
Java System
       1.      In the Visual Administrator, choose Server ->Services -> Deploy.
       2.      On the Runtime tab, select Application.
       3.      Select ecattping.
       4.      Choose Start Application.
ABAP System
       1.      In the target system, start transaction SICF and navigate to the service ecattping.
       2.      Select ecattping and choose Service/Virtual Host -> Activate.

PDF Forms embedded in Webdynpro Java - Can eCATT recognize???

Hi All,
Will eCATT be able to identify the PDF forms embedded in Webdynpro Java applications.....
Thanks in Advance
Puru

I think it will not. I am almost sure it will not. Any new complex screens are a challenge to eCATT. Flash, Flex and sometimes even trees.

ECatt Webdynpro ABAP problems

Hello everbody,
we are trying to script a webdynpro ABAP application with eCatt.
We have completed the system configuration steps (see below), but still when trying to record we are getting the error message:
"An error probably occurred during the logon to the Web Dynpro target system. Check user and password in the target system."
We have set up a HTTP connection to the target system with a preset username / password combination in the authentication details. We also log into the target system with this username / password combination directly just fine.
What could we be missing?
Some more questions:
Is eCatt supposed to execute the webdynpro on the target system as the user defined in the http connection or as the user executing / recording the script?
What user should be set in the http connection in the first place? I'm assuming its not the ecatt_http user because that one doesnt even exist in the target system (the guides only ask for this user to be created in the ecatt system)
Regards & Thanks in advance,
Thomas

Just check, if HTTPS is off on this connection.

Please take a deeper look into saphelp for RFC connections, to clearify, which user credentials are used with RFC connections.

Testing WebDynpro Adobe Interactive forms Using eCATT or any other testing

Hi All,
We are testing WebDynpro Adobe forms (Java). is there any methodology to test Interactive forms not normal webdynpro applications. Especially Interactive form with UI fields like dropdwons, datepickers dropdown values are from BAPI/RFC's in these forms we will perfom actions like send data to backend and display PO created in onther view.
once we repaly the test script all the drop down values are not updated this test scenario we tested with LR.
Is there any procedure to test this scenario using eCATT or any other testing Tool.
Rehards,
Murali

Hi Vara,
You can develop Interactive forms using WD ABAP also.
[E Learning- Interactive Forms using WD ABAP|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/media/uuid/c766e918-0b01-0010-99b1-c2b78cd059b3]
WD Java is useful in case, when your ABAP system is less than ECC 6.0. Otherwise you can achieve same functionalities in WD ABAP also.
Hope this will help you.

ECATT abends during recording when lead selection is set to 0 on web dynpro

We have a web dynpro application that works ok when running by itself.   When we tried to record ECATT testing on it, it abended after we click on a selection from a list of values.    The error on the browser indicated an error on the "lead select".   After reviewing the dump, we found that it abends on an exception when the lead selection on the ALV is not set.   When we changed our code to set the lead selection to 1, the ECATT recording worked.
We have a requirement to set the lead selection of ALV to 0 so we need to change back our code.   We just did the setting to 1 just to get ECATT recording to work for now.    Does anybody know why ECATT requires this?   Is there a support packs that fixes this?
Here is a snippet from ST22 for more details on this:
Runtime Errors         UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION
Exception              CX_WD_CONTEXT
Date and Time          2007/02/07 14:50:06
Short text
An exception occurred that was not caught.
What happened?
The exception 'CX_WD_CONTEXT' was raised, but it was not caught anywhere along
the call hierarchy.
Since exceptions represent error situations and this error was not
adequately responded to, the running ABAP program
'CL_WDR_CONTEXT_NODE===========CP' has to be
terminated.
What can you do?
Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
To process the problem further, contact you SAP system
administrator.
Using Transaction ST22 for ABAP Dump Analysis, you can look
at and manage termination messages, and you can also
keep them for a long time.
Error analysis
An exception occurred which is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_WD_CONTEXT', was not caught and
therefore caused a runtime error.
The reason for the exception is:
The lead selection has not been set. VIEW_TABLE
How to correct the error
If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
keywords:
"UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION" "CX_WD_CONTEXT"
"CL_WDR_CONTEXT_NODE===========CP" or "CL_WDR_CONTEXT_NODE===========CM00V"
"_RAISE_ELEMENT_NOT_FOUND"
If you cannot solve the problem yourself and want to send an error
notification to SAP, include the following information:
1. The description of the current problem (short dump)
To save the description, choose "System->List->Save->Local File
(Unconverted)".
2. Corresponding system log
Display the system log by calling transaction SM21.
Restrict the time interval to 10 minutes before and five minutes
after the short dump. Then choose "System->List->Save->Local File
(Unconverted)".
3. If the problem occurs in a problem of your own or a modified SAP
program: The source code of the program
In the editor, choose "Utilities->More
Utilities->Upload/Download->Download".
4. Details about the conditions under which the error occurred or which
actions and input led to the error.

How to parameter Target System in eCATT

Dear all,
I would like to know if it is possible to have the Target System in the eCATT editor to parameterize them like the interfaces? In fact from solution manager I have to run a business scenario in diffrent satellite systems with RFC connections.
TCD (<transaction code>, <command interface> , TARGET_A).
TCD (<transaction code>, <command interface> , TARGET_B).
TCD (<transaction code>, <command interface> , TARGET_C).
etc.
Kind regards,
Aklilu

Hello Aklilu,
as all people aggree, parametrizing is no option.
But it is even not needed to support your case.
What one should do is:
Use always the same eCATT target system (e.g.TARGET_A)for operations in one certain remote system (say A). Use another eCATT target system (e.g.TARGET_B) for another remote system (say B).
All these commands together can be part of one script or a couple of scripts and modules automating one business case, like in your sample. The target systems are defined in a systemdata container, e.g. SYS_DEV.
If that business case should be executed in another landscape, copy the system data container (e.g. to SYS_PROD), exchange the RFC destinations inside the copy and execute the script with that new system data container.
You even can create multiple testconfigurations refering to the script and assign the different system data container to each. Such you can avoid to type the different system data names again and again on eCATTs start screen.
In that sense eCATT Target Systems are already variables/parameters.
A last hint:
If you have multiple occurrence of a series of transactions in the same remote system, it is not needed to write the target system at each eCATT command. Simply aggregate the commands belonging together in one script and call that script from another one using REF with the target system.
Define TESTSCRIPT SOMETHING.
SAPGUI ( cmdi_ta_1 ).
SAPGUI ( cmdi_ta_2 ).
SAPGUI ( cmdi_ta_3 ).
In another script:
REF( SOMETHING, CMDI, TARGET_A ).
Works also with TCD, FUN, WEBDYNPRO, ....
Best regards
Jens
