Testing OData Services with eCATT

This documentation describes how to test OData services using eCATT.

Context

The Open Data Protocol (OData) provides a simple, standardized way to interact with data on the Web, from any platform and from any device. This interface protocol for querying and updating data is now also widely used for developing SAP business applications. Therefore, there is increasing demand for suitable test tools. The eCATT OData wizard has been developed for testing OData services from eCATT.

The eCATT OData wizard supports you in the steps listed below for generating OData service tests.

Procedure

  1. Load and analyze service: In this step, service metadata is loaded from the server. See Loading and Analyzing OData Services.
  2. Create access classes for service: In this step, access classes are generated in ABAP to enable testing of OData. See Creating Access Classes for OData Services.
  3. Create tests: In this step, the tests are generated on the basis of the classes you have generated. See Creating OData Tests.
