Procedure

  1. Go to the CATT maintenance transaction initial screen and create a new test case.
  2. Maintain the attributes and specify type External application . This flags the test case as an external application.
  3. Go to the file list. Next to the file inclusion function pushbuttons (see Using external applications), there is a pushbutton labeled external test tool, or with the name of which you specified in Customizing.
  4. Call the external test tool by pressing this pushbutton. If the interface was defined correctly, the external test tool runs on your presentation computer.
  5. Record a test case with the external test tool and save it with a test tool function (see manufacturer documentation).
  6. After saving, the external test object appears in the CATT test case file list. In the same line next to the test object name is a two-character manufacturer code which was defined in customizing to identify the external test tool format.

Note

Communication with CATT is only possible if the external test tool was called from the CATT file list (from the CATT maintenance transaction with Go to ® Functions). The communication is canceled when you leave the CATT maintenance screen or call a CATT function. To reestablish communication, you must call the test tool from CATT again.
