ECATT integration with Mercury QuickTest for SAP

For the past few months I have been evaluating Quick Test Professional from Mercury and eCATT (extended Computer Aided Testing Tool) from SAP as testing tools for SAP. Mercury has a strong partnership with SAP and the two companies have offered ways to integrate their two products. Has anyone ever used eCATT in conjunction with QTP? What are your thoughts on this partnership? Is it worth $10,000 to pick up Mercury's QTP when SAP's eCATT is Free with SAP? I think the functionality is comparable, although QTP is easier to use and can interact with 3rd party applications. If anyone has used both QTP and eCATT, do you think these two tools are an either/or option or do they compliment each other?

Ben,
Good to hear you liked the article. Look out for another contribution in SPJ in the near future
I have attempted to answer your questions - all prefixed with ==> SAP (JM) in your original text:
This document describes the functionality, abilities and benefits that would be lost in an SAP automated testing solution that excludes Mercurys QuickTest. Assuming that SAPs eCATT is the only tool used for SAP testing there will be the following limitations:
Script Creation
SAP eCATT cannot record certain types of report screens in TCD(Record) mode. i.e. MB58(view stock levels)
==> SAP (JM): This is true - but you can use the SAPGUI command, which uses the same technical interface as QTP.
Although the active screen simulator in eCATT contains data, it is usually not visible and the user has to guess where to click in order to capture a value. The other option is to forgo the active screen and do all of the work through the command interface.
The active screen in QuickTest allows the user to see the exact state of the screen that was recorded and access the fields in that screen.
==> SAP (JM): A valid criticism of eCATT. From Release 6.40 (SAP NetWeaver 04), a script-wide search function makes using the command interface easier.
The recorded script is one command, (i.e. TCD(VA01, VA01_1) is the command for an entire sales order), therefore Scripting logic must be placed before, after or around a transaction. There is less freedom in scripting inside of a transaction.
In the Expert view of QTP users can add or delete visual basic statements during any portion of the transaction. Each step, down to a click or keystroke is recorded as an individual statement that can be modified or deleted. Logic such as loops and conditions can be placed around any set of steps.
==> SAP (JM): Using the SAPGUI command in eCATT, you can create commands that cover a single screen, providing more of the kind of flexibility that you find in QTP.
The eCATT tool does not allow individual steps in a single transaction recording to be rearranged or deleted. If a user makes a mistake while recording, the entire transaction must be re-recorded.
QuickTest allows users to freely remove steps that were mistakes or errors after a transaction has been recorded.
==> SAP (JM): Again, using SAPGUI in eCATT, this is possible. Admittedly tricky in Release 6.20, but very simple in Web AS 6.40.
SAPs eCATT cannot inherently read excel spreadsheets for data driven testing. The eCATT tool allows for data driven testing through its own data tables. These are useful for entering small sets of data. For eCATT to test large sets of data created in excel spreadsheets there are three solutions:
1. Purchase conversion software from SAP
2. Write an in-house conversion script
3. Enter data manually into the eCATT data table
QuickTest stores its data table as an excel-readable .xls file.
==> SAP (JM): 1. Who is selling the conversion software?
==> SAP (JM): You can use the class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES to upload a tab-delimited file into an internal table in a test script (using an Inline ABAP routine)
==> SAP (JM): Data upload/download is available in Web AS 6.40
Test scripts in eCATT are limited to about 40 parameters.
In QucikTest the only limitation to the number of parameters or number of iterations is the maximum number of columns and rows in an excel worksheet.
==> SAP (JM): Where does this limitation come from? Does it seem to be technical, or more practical in nature?
Scripts that enter a single line item in a table cannot be modified to enter multiple items later. A new script with multiple line items must be recorded.
A script in QTP can be modified to add a single line item or multiple line items to a table regardless of how many items were entered when the transaction was recorded.
==> SAP (JM): This is possible in eCATT if you use the SAPGUI command. Because a single SAPGUI command can cover a small part of a transaction, you can isolate the "line item" section in a single command, then put a loop around it. I have an example of this if you need one.
Script Execution and Analysis
SAP eCATT will respond with a pass/fail status based on its own criteria before any checkpoints have been added. Although eCATT allows for additional checkpoints, there is a minimum level of pre-set requirements that eCATT looks for in order to allow a test to pass. These pre-set requirements cannot be viewed or changed and tests may fail even when, from the users perspective, the transaction has responded exactly as expected.
Quick Test will only fail a test if the script if it was unable to recognize an object on the screen or complete every statement. Otherwise failure points are completely determined by the insertion of check points by the Test engineer. QuickTest also provides the option to ignore missing objects or uncompleted steps.
==> SAP (JM): Default conditions in eCATT (for example, fail if an error message occurs) can be overwritten. See eCATT documentation on http://help.sap.com for details (use the NetWeaver 2004 documentation - it is more comprehensive). Then, the only conditions under which the test would fail automatically would be a system error (RFC destination not available, or similar)
If SAP experiences a system failure, eCATT will fail too and test results may be lost.
If SAP were to crash QuickTest can take a screenshot and pinpoint the location in the code where the script failed.
==> SAP (JM): If you are working remotely (test case and application under test in different systems) you will get a log in the central test system, even if the SUT fails. The only circumstances under which everything is lost would be a full GUI crash!
eCATT cannot use the SAP logon pad to open a new session and log on as a new user.
In QuickTest new sessions can be opened and different users can be logged in with encrypted passwords.
==> SAP (JM): eCATT uses System Data Containers and RFC destinations to log onto multiple systems as a specified user. This is more flexible than using hard-coded user names in a script and allows you to leverage concepts such as Trusted RFC or SSO.
Aside from printing results on paper, users cannot view test results without an SAP logon to the system where the tests were executed.
Mercury provides a test viewer that can be installed on any machine and allows users without the QuickTest application to view and analyze test results.
==> SAP (JM): eCATT logs can be downloaded in a variety of formats from the log view in transaction SECATT (via the Print Preview function, then List -> Save).
Cannot view a screenshot of the failed step.
QuickTest provides the option to capture a screen shot at the point of failure.
==> SAP (JM): Again, a valid criticism. This has been rectified for the next release of eCATT (will be available with Solution Manager 4.0). When playing back a SAPGUI command, you will be able to capture screenshots at various points in time ranging from "every screen" to "on error".

Integration with Remedy ARS to SAP using web services

Hi!
There have been made a wsdl file from a sap babi, this file is loaded into remedy and the fields are mapped (input and output). When doing a search from the remedy using the wsdl file, we get the error "No selection criteria specified", even if there are input search parameters sent.
Is there a way on the SAP side, to see what remedy is sending over and maybe try to find out if a field in the wsdl must be filled out or not. We use the BABI_EMPLOYEE_GET which is made into a wsdl. This has been tried local on a j2ee for sap and the wsdl worked there.
-RB

you can set a http (exteranl ) break point inside the BAPI and then call the WS (the user executing and the client needs to be the same)

PS integration with other modules

Hi Experts
Pl tell me from configuration point of view how ps integrates with MM , SD and FI. What are all the necessary steps we have to do in integration .
Thanks in Advance

Hi Amit,
PS is integrated with all modules of SAP.
MM and PS, we can create Purchase requisition in PS itself rather than doing in MM. This PR can be converted into Purchase order. To create PR in PS, we have to use the MM master data.
SD and PS, we can check the revenues in PS. This can be done while creating the Sale order we have to give the WBS element.
FI and PS: We can provide the direct financial entries in FI to post cost to the project in PS by selecting the WBS element.
I hope i clarified your query

ODBC Issues with SAP Predictive Analytics 2.0 - Automated Analysis

Dear all,
maybe this adds only an aspect to the Infinite Insight OCBC Connection difficulties discussed in
http://scn.sap.com/message/15766247#15766247
but after trying and searching the web for more than a day any help would be appreciated.
This is the situation:
I'm using SAP PA 2.0 Desktop version and would like to upload a flatfile (*csv) to the Data Manager of Automated Analysis. Unfortunately, none of the solutions found by now worked.
It is a SAP PA 2.0 64bit version installed on a Windows 7.0 64 bit P. The installed MS Office version is 32bit as all available drivers. Deinstalling MS Office and reinstalling a 64bit version is not an option. It is not possible to install SAP PA 2.0 32bit version either - the Installation process stops due to the wrong operations system.
The DSN configuration suggested in the SCN discussion mentioned above didn't work, although displayed as data source in the Data Manager data base/file selection Screen. The error message returned is a Microsoft ODBC error [IM014] indicating that for the DSN used, there is an architecture mismatch between driver and application,
The attachments shows screenshots of the error message and the situation in the ODBC adminitrator consoles both for 32bit and for 64bit (in system32 and SysWOW64 shares).
Is there a solution to this problem?
Kind regards
Elisabeth

Hi Elisabeth,
If I understand correcty, you would like to upload your csv file to a database.
What kind of database is it ?
The Automated part of Predictive Analytics supports the following databases:
SAP HANA
Sybase IQ
Oracle
Hive
Teradata
Microsoft SQL Server
MySQL 5
Netezza
IBM DB2
PostgreSQL
Vertica
Greenplum
Your screensot shows ODBC connections to Excel and Text files. It is is not real databases, it cannot execute SQL code.
For more information on configuring a database connection on your machine, you can refer to this document : https://websmp204.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/012002523100001708812015E/pa20_conndb_win_conf_en.pdf
Note that you need a database driver installed on your machine and access to a database (either installed on your machine or on a remote server).
In general, all documentation related to PA2.0 can be found here : SAP Predictive Analytics 2.0 – SAP Help Portal Page.
Hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Armelle

Melita Predictive Dialer Integration with SAP CRM WebIC

Hello All,
Does any one have any information about "Melita Predictive Dialer" integration with SAP CRM Web IC.
Please let me know.
Thanks
Amar Reddy

Hello Amar,
I am only aware of a few customers who have integrated predictive dialing into the Interaction Center, and those customers all used Genesys or Avaya. I'm not aware of anyone who has done this with Melita yet.
By the way, I wrote a high-level Blog on the topic of automated dialing available on PBX:

Java Stack mandatory for a SAP BI system integrated with EP?

Hi Guru's,
Currently we are using SAP NetWeaver 2004 s version 7.0 system for our BI.
This is integrated with the EP. But our BI system does not contain the Java Stack installed.
When we work on WAD templates and execute the template, it is automatically directed to EP portal where we can see our reports.
Here my question is do we need Java Stack for this system to use ADOBE DOCUMENT services or can it work with EP only for the web functionalities.
Any info on this is of great help.
Best Regards
Kumar

HI Reddy,
We came to know from our basis team that we do not have the Java Stack installed in our BI 7.x system yet.
As it is integrated with EP which has Java, our web reports are working.
1) But my question is still do we ned to install the Java Stack in our BI system as i do not find any Export to PDF option in EP for the reports (eventhough AS Java supports this).
2) Or can we use the existing configuration without Java STack integrated to EP for the new tools like Report Designer and Integrated Planning?
Regards
Kumar

Integrating with SAP SRM 4.0

Hi all,
I'm currently involved in an e-procurement project that will have to integrate SAP SRM 4.0 with the EAI solution of our company (webMethods).
As I don't know much about SRM 4.0 technology, I'd like to know the standard way of integration with SRM 4.0:
- Is SRM 4.0 capable of exposing IDocs?
- Is SRM 4.0 capable of invoking BAPIs?
- If so, how can a Purchase Order put into the arguments of the BAPI?
- Is SRM 4.0 compelled to talk with XML messages (particularly SOAP XI) or are IDocs and BAPIs a suitable solution?
- Is SRM 4.0 standard output xCBL?
- Can SRM 4.0 expose and invoke Web Services natively?
In other words, I'd like to know whether we are obliged to use the XI Content of SRM 4.0 in order to integrate with webMethods. We have already done integration with R/3 4.6 and we used IDocs with the SAP Adapter. We would like to capitalize on our previous experience and save us from having to assess the feasibility of an integration with SRM via XI.
Thank you in advance for all your answers.
Regards,
/ML

Hi Marcel,
Underlying technology is WAS (Web Application Server) which is an enhanced version of the middleware BASIS technology used by 46C. XI is a replacement for messaging platforms like webmethods, so if you are using webmethods with SAP adaptor you don't need to use XI because you are already using a messaging platform. Only reason you may want to use XI would be if you can build upon the XI content available to you. If you are not interested in the XI content then go ahead and use webmethods using SAP adaptor to connect to SRM. I don't see any problem in that.

Sanjeev

SAP R/3 integration with (Manual) Third-party App

Hi All
I am working on a scenario in which Third Party application has functionality which actually refines & correct the data upto the accuracy of 99%. So for this end-user needs to enter bit of information on their front-end then application will return the data on the basis of that information.
Now the problem has different parts -->
*) If I choose that SAP R/3 will initiate the ( Synchronous ) process then ABAPers raised the concern that they will not be able to display the response data on correct SAP screen also how to actually access the front-end of Third party.
Third-Party is ready to replace the Front-end with the web-service but then end-user will not be having the functionlity to select different options which is the strong part of Third-party application & also client is not agree to that.
Do you think I should use BPM in above solution with correlation on some field to identify the SAP screen.
*) If I choose Third Party application to initiate the ( Asynchronous ) process then again ABAPers raised the concern that how to display it on the correct SAP screen & how they know that data is coming at this point of time & they need to display it. Also Third Party said in this case they don't have expertise to customize their Front-end application & which will lead to additional cost to hire other developers.
Now can you suggest some good solutions for this kind of scenario in which an application needs the Manual intervention & needs to be integrated with SAP R/3. Also suggest from which direction I should initiate the process.
Thanks
- Lalit Chaudhary -

Matias
<<<< with front-end do you refer to SAP R/3 ?
No Matias with Front-End I meant Third Party is providing the web-page where end-user can enter the details & those will be refined & corrected by the Third-Party Application.
<<<<< Which ways has the Third-Party app to connect with (file, database, jms, etc.).
Third-Party App is providing Java Classes & Web-Services for integration but we don't want to access them directly, first of all we would like to invoke/access the Front-end application.
<<<< What is the purpose of this third-party app ? just to receive data, validate it and return it once it is corrected ?
Actually in this Front-end user can enter the data on given fields & data will be keep on refining while he is entering the more information into that given field. For e.g if the field says "City" & user enters "DE", a drop-down will come with all the cities in the world starting with "DE" like Delhi, Denmark etc.Once all the fields are populated with correct data user will click on "Submit" button which will send the data to SAP R/3 ( which we wish to do ).
Now in this case when user will click on Submit button ( means Third-party will initiate the process ) & data will be send to XI using ( for e.g ) HTTP sender then ABAPer's raised concern that how they will be able to show it in the right screen without using proper thread ID.
Pls. let me know in case you require any further information. My problem is this how to relate the Third-Party data with correct screen of SAP.
Thanks

Brief discussion on SAP XI and its' Integration with SAP MDM.

Hi,
I have never worked on SAP XI.
I am discussing it on brief, please give your valuable replies.
SAP XI consists of System Landascape Directory(SLD).
SLD Consists of Business System and Techinical System.
Technical System contains all information about the software
component. The Business System consists of Inbound and Outbound Business
System which are used as logical names for data transfer.
There is communication Channel for Receiver and Sender Business System and n agreement
is signed between Sender and Receiver.
Outbound Interface defined for Business System Outbound and Techical System associated
with the Business System,
Inbound Interface defined for Business System Inbound and Techical System associated
with the Business System.
In SAP NetWeaver XI Integration Directory, we have defined the Integration Scenarios,
Actions, Interface Objects, Mapping Objects, Adapters Objects.
Mapping Object defines the Structure and Value Mapping.
Adapter Objects defines the Adapter program which implements RFC Adapter, FTP Adapter logic.
FTP Adapter is used for XI-MDM Communication.
RFC Adapter is used for XI-ECC Communication.
Integration Repository: Both Outbound and Inbound Interfaces are Mapped with Value mapping and
Structure Mapping inside Integration Repository.
The File Adapter takes the File from the Outbound port of MDM System
and sends it as IDOC to Receiver Business System.
Value Mapping must be done between Sender and Receiver interfaces.
Value Mapping is done by XSLT or Java based program.
SAP NetWeaver XI Integration Server at runtime:
Message Split, Interface Determination, Receiver Identifaction, Mapping, Techincal Routing
and Call Adapter Proccess are done.
In SAP XI 3.0 and MDM 5.5:
Step 1: Create busines system as service.
Step 2: Create communication channel for each business service. If the system can communicate
through different channels, then create all possible channel types if necessary.
Step 3: Create receiver agreement between the systems.
Step 4: Interface determination:
- Here you see for the first time the software component mentioned;
there are some special requirements regarding this software component in relation to the customizing ID mapping.
- To modify this software component, the customer needs to copy the SAP standard delivered software component
into its own namespace. The customer is able to modify to create archives
for the customized ID mapping.
Receiver determination.
Configure an FTP Server on the MDS.
Create a send folder for outbound messages using outbound port(s) for
remote systems(s).
Create receive folder inbound messages using inbound port(s) for remote systems.
This ia all about concept of SAP XI Infractsture and its' Integration with SAP MDM 5.5.
Regards
Kaushik Banerjee

Hi Kaushik,
You must be aware of File types that MDM Import Manager can Import i.e. we have XML, Excel etc. Now there are two transactions to extract data from R3
1. MDMGX -
         - For lookup table extraction
         - Output in XML format which MDM can import without using XI.
          - FTP can be configured to put the file in the desired folder which will be then picked by Import Server.
2. MDM_CLNT_EXTR -
          - For Main table records.
          - Output is in Idoc format which MDM doesn't understand hence we need XI in between which converts Idoc file received from R3 into XML which can then be imported using Import Manager or Import Server. For this we need to implement XI Scenario that consists of Source System, Receiver System, Type of Data etc.
Just a basic understanding...

Jitesh Talreja

MS Word integration with SAP CRM: can a PDF be created from the MS Word doc

21/11
Gurus,
I know have a better understanding of the topic but still have 2 open questions.
I now know that StreamServe cannot read .DOC files but can read and work with .PDF files.
Since we are in a SAP forum and not a StreamServe forum,
1/ I am wondering if SAP CRM 2007 can convert the MS Word generated and populated documents into .PDF. Possibly immediatly.
2/ Can the MS Word generated and populated documents be saved by SAP CRM 2007 as .XML files?
Thanks again.
Dear All,
On my project, there is a requirement to generate ad-hoc and amendable letters in CRM (2007).
We might have +150 letters so I am thinking about using MS Word integration with SAP CRM to deliver this.
With SAP CRM 2007, I understand that it is indeed possible to generate WebServices that will then be consumed by Word templates through the mail merge functionality. So agents will not have to enter BP name, address and so on. All this can be done by configuration which is great.
My point of concern is how to integrate this design to StreamServe for printing purpose (we do not want to go into local printing)
Can StreamServe collects the Word generated document?
Should this Word document be converted as PDF before or can StreamServe do it?
Should StreamServe exploits the XML contents within the Word generated document?
Thanks for your help and insights about this.
Brice.

Hi Chris,
    Your advice helps me a lot, thank you.
    I upload an XML-Format template Word Doc to server as a MIME Object.
    When OfficeControl is started in Web Dynpro, OfficeControl automatically open the XML-Format template.
   For the first time, I get the XString-type Context attribute bind to the content of the Word Doc,
   then translate it to string, I got the XML-format content, it's great!
   However, after the first time, when I input any new contents in MS Word in Web Dynpro,
   no matter I execute "Ctrl + S" or click the "savedocument" button,
   when I translate the XString Context attribute to String, I got messy code. (but the first time, it is good plain text)
   I use the function module: ECATT_CONV_XSTRING_TO_STRING (good for first time, dump after first time),
   SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY, SCMS_BINARY_TO_STRING (good for first time, messy code after first time).
   My Demo source code is in: (system) SMV --> (local object) zhaode --> (Dynpro Component) ztest_office_control
   core source code is as:
   clear itab.
CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY'
    EXPORTING
      BUFFER = lv_datas
    IMPORTING
      OUTPUT_LENGTH = lv_length
    TABLES
      binary_tab = itab.
CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_BINARY_TO_STRING'
    EXPORTING
      input_length = lv_length
      mimetype = 'text/plain; charset=utf-8'
    IMPORTING
      text_buffer = lv_datas_string
      output_length = lv_data_len
    TABLES
      binary_tab = itab.
    Can you give me some advice?
Best Regards,
Derek

How can SMART METER Technology be integrated with SAP ISU system?

At present the SMART METER technology is integrated with SAP ISU through a third party vendor. The idocs are sent to a third party and the readings are downloaded and sent back in idoc segments.
How can the integration be done without the third party intervention.

HI
SAP XI needs to be used for 3rd party intervention to send and recive idocs..
or there are some thrid party softwareslike MDUS ,meter data utilisation system.which wil be again a interface between sap and ami system
so basically its like sap syst--sap xi3rd patry 4 ami comapnyami system
