Every SAP release, tested against your configuration.
Testing and release assurance
SAP updates SuccessFactors twice a year. The platform replays your regression plans in the real SuccessFactors screens, release assurance shows which tests a release puts at risk, and sign-off is recorded with its evidence.
In use today at a Canadian utility regulator, a Canadian municipal corporation and a global engineering firm.
From the spreadsheet to the record.
- Before: Regression scripts rebuilt in spreadsheets every release. With the platform: Reusable actions, cases and plans, replayed on your preview instance.
- Before: Release notes read by one person, under pressure. With the platform: Release items tagged to your configuration and to the tests they put at risk.
- Before: Screenshots pasted into a Word document. With the platform: A run report with redacted screenshots, and sign-off by someone other than the tester.
What it does
Capture once, replay
Record SuccessFactors screens once, then build reusable actions, cases and plans with parameters and Excel data.
Preview and commit runs
Preview runs stop before anything is saved. Runs that save data can require a second approver, and plans can run on a schedule.
Release assurance
Upload SAP’s What’s New export. Items are tagged to your configuration, the tests they put at risk are listed and a regression cycle is created for a person to review.
Test cycles and sign-off
SIT and UAT cycles with entry and exit gates, a traceability matrix and a sign-off pack.
Payroll parallel runs
Compare legacy payroll results with Employee Central Payroll within the tolerances you agree.
Safe test data
Synthetic test people, or masked copies of real extracts. Masking is refused on production projects.
Where a person decides
- Your test lead and ours agree the scope and sign the results.
- A run that saves data can require a second approver.
- Release impact is a first guess that a person reviews.
Connected to the rest of the platform
Each test links to the configuration it covers, the defect it found and the release it proved, so a sign-off shows exactly what was tested.
Questions buyers ask
Does it come with ready-made SuccessFactors test scripts?
Not as a fixed library. Plans are built from your own processes, then reused release after release.
Does it test in our real SuccessFactors screens?
Yes. The test agent uses the SuccessFactors screens the way a person does. Preview runs stop before saving.
Does it read SAP’s release notes on its own?
No. You upload SAP’s What’s New export, and the platform maps the items to your configuration and tests for a person to review.
