TEST BPM

Hi All:
Is it possible to test the BPM during design time. Like we test the Mapping.
Thankd in advace.

Hi,
In the BPM, u can test only for the syntax,
Regd. Blogs-check the bpmPattern available in the SAP BASIS Software component.

How to test BPM Scenario?

HI,
Experts,
I have developed a BPM scenario successfully but i didn't understand how to test that BPM Scenario i tried test that in ID->Test Configuration but i having only one sender details how to another sender details or any transaction to test BPM.
Thanks in advance
Shabeer Ahmed.

For testing purposes you can use RWB.
Give all the details like Sender Business System, Message Interface and Namespace and the correct payload.
It just mimics your sender system provided you have only one sender in your BPM.
otherwise you need a parallel instance of RWB for different senders.
Thanks,

Testing BPM on NWA with XML Content

Hi SDN team,
I'm working with SAP NetWeaver CE 7.3.
I have modeled a BPM (based on the Microsoft OLX Web Service) and try to test it on SAP NetWeaver Administration (NWA). Therefor, I also have created a XML file. But when I upload it, the warning message "Datei kann nicht hochgeladen werden, da die Prozessdefinitions-ID für den Prozess, den Sie starten möchten, nicht übereinstimmt", that means "File cannot be uploaded, because the process definition ID for the process you try to start does not match"
The XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:t="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/types">
<soap:Header>
<t:RequestServerVersion Version="Exchange2010_SP2"/>
</soap:Header>
<soap:Body>
<FindFolder Traversal="Shallow" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/messages">
<FolderShape>
<t:BaseShape>AllProperties</t:BaseShape>
</FolderShape>
<ParentFolderIds>
<t:FolderId Id="AAEuAAAAAAAaRHOQqmYRzZvIAKoAL8RaAwAVb4+VoTScSajx6dP/9c40AAACQ1iEAAA="/>
<t:DistinguishedFolderId Id="inbox"/>
</ParentFolderIds>
</FindFolder>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
Without the envelope, I got an error: "File not valid".
Is there another way to define start (parameter) values? In my BPM, there is a Data Content for the process context.
Thanks, Cheers,
Cengiz

Hello Cengiz,
i don't know if i get this right. You have designed a BPM Workflow with a start trigger based on a microsoft wsdl and you want to test this now? You could start your process in NWA by navigating to Process-Repository and klick on your process definition and then click button "start process". Then you can enter start parameter. Also you could use the WSNavigator and search for your start Trigger. There you could also enter the paramters and start your process.

How to Test BPM

I have a scenerio where i have used BPM.
i think ihave probelem in BPM as i am not geting result.
Please tell me how to test BPM

Troubleshoot: BPM(Integration processes)
First of all follw these steps to,these are general prerequisites of running Integration Process(BPM)
1) Check the definition of the integration process in the process editor (Integration Process -> Check).
The output area in the Tasks view must not contain any error messages.
2) Check that Auto-Customizing of the Business Process Engine was fully executed and that no errors occurred (transaction SWF_XI_CUSTOMIZING):
The status indicator for all entries must be green.
3) Check whether the RFC queues indicate failed or pending requests that may involve the Business Process Engine (transactions SM58, SMQ1, SMQ2).
If these Queue are not registered, Your MEssage Could be stuck there also.
Then you need to go to tcode
smq1/smq2 :outbound/inbound
And execte them maually to relase the messages stuck
4) Check that the contents of the XI runtime cache are up-to-date (transaction SXI_CACHE).
The status indicator for the XI runtime cache must be green.
Then check whether Runtime version was created successfully or not...
1) Determine the number of the workflow that was created for the integration process:
a. Search for the message in message monitoring (transaction SXMB_MONI).
b. Read the number of the workflow from the Queue ID column.
If this column displays the entry XBQO$PE_WS90100008, for example, then the workflow number is WS90100008.
2) Check in the XI runtime cache whether the runtime version was created correctly:
a. Display the XI runtime cache (transaction SXI_CACHE).
b. Double-click Integration Processes/Business Process.
c. In the Task column, search for the workflow by using the number you determined in the previous step.
The return code must be 0. If this is not the case, check the activation log for detailed error messages that will help you analyze the problem further.
With Regards,
Raju.

BPM Process Testing

Hi
I'm looking for some document or information about BPM Process testing, best practices about how test a BPM Process or something like that.
I collected the information about Testing from the BPM document's, and added something additional from lifecycle of BPM process, but i can not found more about this topic
Thank in Advance
Jesus Torres

Hi,
I realize this might not be entirely what you're looking for (it provides no in-depth best practices on BPM testing), but there is a sample project 'BPMUnitTestExample.exp' in your samples directory.
It provides some ideas on how to test BPM processes and objects.
Kind regards,
RL

Unit Tests in Aqualogic BPM

Hi,
Has anybody worked on the CUnit and PUnit test suites in ALBPM? As this is a new feature in ALBPM 6.0, i am not able to find appropriate documentation for the same. Any information regarding this would be very helpful.
Namitha

There's some documentation here:

Fork is not working - BPM

I have done 2 samples using fork and in both the cases it is not working. For each message new BPM is triggered and only one step (branch) gets completed and other branch steps remain in ready state forever.
1) I have tested standard BPM pattern BpmPatternCollectMultiIf
2) Simple process using fork - two branches using different inetrfaces (having different message types)
Integration process return code is 0 - runtime cache
I am testing on local sandbox (XI 3.0) with SP17.
Under SAP help only brief description available about fork. Please share if you have good references/samples about fork (BPM).

Jai,
1)I expect following result in case of standard BPM pattern "BpmPatternCollectMultiIf"
Note: Here same message type for all 3 interfaces ( branches), no end condition, no of branches = 3
As all message types are same when I send first message only one branch will be executed and outbound status under sxmb_moni with be clock (Message being sent). When I send 2 message, second branch will be completed and status will be clock again. And when I send 3 rd message all branches will be completed and outbound status will be success flag (Message successful on outbound side). Under one process id three messages will be displayed
Actual result is every time status as clock. and for each message new fork instance is created. below are the processids for 3 messages
133721
133726 -
unexpected
133731 -
unexpected
Ideally when you send 3 messages all should be process under process ids 133721 to 133725
2) I have tried fork with 3 branches with different message types. When I send 3 messages ( here each payload is different as per message type ) I expect success flag after 3rd message. But in this case also always the status as clock. and every time new fork instance.
Is anybody successful to test BPM pattern -> BpmPatternCollectMultiIf?

BPM was Picking two files but it was not processing 2nd file data in target

Hi all,
I have designed scenario for picking two files and i want to merge this files into single structure and send it target.when i am try to testing my bpm was picking two files but it is processing only file it went target system.i have steructe for source like
source1     target
root        header
a           item 0 to unbounded
b            a
c            b
             c
source2     item1 duplicated structure
a            a
b            b
c            c
i am getting two source files with the same structure but i have to map it one target structure and i want to map both source fileds to one target structre under item node so i was duplicated item node and mapped a b c fields from both(2 source structures).while testing BPM is picking two file bu in the target i am getting only first file data under item node,whatever i mapped with duplicate structure with second file i am not getting into target file(target is standard proxy structure so cant' create new one item node in that occurance is 0 to unbounded thats y i duplicated node while testing interface mapping its working fine).can anyone suggest solution for this problem.
Thanks,
Seshagiri.

Hi,
In BPM follow the below steps and hopefully your problem will be solved.
1.     Configure one sender CC to get the files from your application server, once the files hit the BPM now you need to
                     configure your BPM accordingly.
2.     Use the Receiver step in BPM to receive the messages. Use the correlation step to get the correct files.
3.     Use container and append the files, so both the files will be append, this means the message content will
                     have 1header, body, footer, 2header, body, footer.
4.     If you want to split the message to different receiver then use the fork step else leave it.
5.     Use the transformation step, the transformation step will call the message mapping. Provide the correct message
                     mapping.
6.     Now use the sender step to send the message to the receiver-target system. In this step use the split value for each
                      concept if you want to generate two different files.
7.     Configure 1 receiver CC to generate both the files.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Jay

Message mapping when using BPM?

We are doing a test to see if you can do a split of a string using standard functions, UDF or BPM.
We discovered that standard function has some of the functionality but if you are going to solve the problem that way the solution will be very complex. You will get no flexi bility in how to design the string and all the feilds will have to have fix length. So Standard functions are not the solution for us.
UDF works realy great. Write your java function and map it and everything are running.
We wont to test BPM as well. and i just started to look at it and how to solve it. I'm a newbee on BPM and for start I'm wondering how the message mapping should look to use in the BPM?
Sourcemessage looks as follow:
<Header>
   <Line>
      <SegmentA>   0 to unbounded
      <SegmentB>   0 to unbounded
      <SegmentC>   0 to unbounded
SegmentA contains a value to be copied to a segment in the target.
SegmentB contains a date to be copied to a targetelement.
SegmentC contains a string that we want to split into several elements in the target structure.
Targetmessage looks as follow:
<Header>
   <LineA>   1 to 1   (Will get the value from SegmentA in the sourcemessage.)
   <LineB>   1 to 1   (Will get the value from SegmentB in the sourcemessage.)
   <LineC>   0 to unbounded
      <ElementA>   0 to 1   (Will get a part of the string from SegmentC in the sourcemessage.)
      <ElementB>   0 to 1   (Will get a part of the string from SegmentC in the sourcemessage.)
      <ElementC>   0 to 1   (Will get a part of the string from SegmentC in the sourcemessage.)
To able to get the messages into BPM I need a interfacemapping and to do the interfacemapping I need to do a messagemapping. How should that messagemapping be configured?

> Now i want to try to replace that UDF with a BPM (Integration Process).
An UDF is part of a mapping and an Integration Process is used if you want to realize a more complex scenario then sending a message from System A to System B. In BPM you can do things like collecting messages, use timeouts, ...
But if you want to use a mapping in a BPM you define your mapping in your Integration Repository (like in a standard scenario without BPM) and then you can use the mapping in the Integration Process.
That's why i say it's maybe possible to realize your mapping without UDF (for example only with standard functions), but it makes no difference if you use BPM.
If you want to try finding a solution without UDF, i would suggest to open a new thread for this question.
Hope this helps.

Demo users for BPM in Oracle BPM Suite 11.1.1.4 (Patchset 3)

Hello,
In the previous release a utility was made available to insert demo users for BPM (demo-community.zip)
See also
http://blogs.oracle.com/middleware/2010/07/installing_seeded_users_for_bpm_11113_on_linux.html
Could I (re)use this utility in order to test BPM with an existing security schema? Or will a changed utility be made available for BPM 11.1.1.4 (PS3)?
Regards Léon

I used this on 11.1.1.4, running the ant script and using a customized input file ( -Dinput.file=... ) and it seemed to work fine.

How to check the progress of a BPM process I started ?

Hi,
I used to build workflow with Guided Procedure, and there is a GP Runtime Workcenter where a user can find the processes he/she started, or being as an admin/overseer/owner. For GP, it is much more powerful than UWL.
Now I'm testing BPM with the following secnario, but I don't know how the user starting a process to monitor the progress with UWL ? (I do not think NWA is a good tool for BPM user, correct me if I'm wrong )
My scenario is : User fill in a leave-request data form built with Web Dynpro iView (not part of BPM task), and click submit, the iView start a BPM process. This process will go through the approvers. The user need to check the progress.....how can he/she find the process in UWL ? (He/She has no working items)
I really want to know the best practice to present the process prgress to a user who is relative to the process instances (as initiator, admin, or participant)
Thanks

Hi,
You can do it several ways.
1> a) After starting the process, go to NWA [http://<hostname>:<port>/nwa]
     b) Go to 'Operations' -> Processes and Tasks' -> 'Manage Process'.
     c) Choose the Process instance you started and click on the 'Process flow'.
This will show you a page with the process digram with a grenn 'token' beside the active step.
2> The other way ( dificult to achieve, easier to use)
     a> During process design, for every human activity UI, write down the process steps on task UI.
     b> Highlight the step for every human task.
     c> When the user opens the tak UI from UWL, then can see the process step at which they are stuck.
This method wont work if the process is stuck at any 'automated activity' or sub-process.
Hope these help.

How to best performance test OBPM 10.3g solutions?

Hi, is anyone aware of a framework that could be used for performance testing OBPM solutions?
Unlike normal SOA services which can be load tested using SOAP UI or a simple custom java client, BPM solutions could only be load/stress tested by having the process instances at various state in its life cycle.
Would highly appreciate any guidance/documentation?

LoadRunner is one of the more popular means of performance testing BPM....

Unable to open BPM Processes in Jdev post 11,1.1.5 patch BPM PS4 FP

Hi All ,
We applied the BPM FP PS4 patch on top of our Jdev 11.1.1.5 installation as per the instructions here -
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/soasuite/documentation/readme-bpm-488324.txt
But after that we are not open to see the BPM Process in Jdeveloper at all , something which was working fine before we installed the patch.
Has anyone faced this issue before or knows what should be done please ?

Hi
1. After applying FP to JDeveloper, we did not face any issues. We could still open our old processes, business rules etc everything from BPM Project Navigator tab.
2. So I guess you applied both the below patches to the JDev. In JDev, select your workflow project -> Right click -> Project Properties. In this select Libraries and Classpath and make sure all the modules are in proper and none of them are like in Red Color. Red color means that module location is not found like that.
soa-jdev-extension.zip - Oracle JDeveloper Extension for SOA
bpm-jdev-extension.zip - Oracle JDeveloper Extension for BPM
3. One quick test, create a new test bpm app with one bpm project with all defaults. Then open this newly created bpm process. This wil make sure if your JDev and the new patch is applied correctly or not. Acutally after applying FP, when you open process in the central window on top you will see a new Row with new compoments like Activity, Mail etc on top left corner.
4. If newly created one works, then check your old project and its properties like that.
5. Finally, when you try to open it, and if it fails, it should show some error message in the bottom status window. Look what it says.
We have not faced any issues like this after upgrading to FP.
Thanks

Check BPM

Hey guys
i m doin a file to RFC scenario using BPM and getting some error in containers(return code 99 in SXI_CACHE),is it possible to check the BPM for any errors,i know i can check for syntax but i want to test BPM on the whole
i m using SP9.
thanx
ahmad

1) some times generated work flow can have syntax errors. please do workflow syntax check using transaction swdd----> WorkFlow -
> Check Syntax
2) click on repeat activation from SXI_CACHE to get the updated version of runtime workflow
3) turn on trace for BPM using transaction code, SWELS
4) run the interface again, and check in SXMB_MONI_BPE
