Procedure documentationPerforming Self-Checks

 

With the CBTA self-checks, the administrator of the SAP Solution Manager system can verify the installation and configuration of the CBTA client and system under test (SUT) accesses. Self-checks are also useful for SAP support to identify issues in installation and configuration. SAP support may ask users to perform self-checks and send the results.

To ensure that your system is correctly configured for the UI technology of the applications that you want to test, you can display the front-end recorder type and determine the UI technology (SAP GUI, CRM Web Client, Web Dynpro ABAP, for example) of the self-check.

Prerequisites

Procedure

  1. In the Test Management work center, choose Start of the navigation path Administration Next navigation step CBTA Next navigation step Perform Self-Checks End of the navigation path.

    Depending on the SAP Logon configuration, the system asks you to accept requests from the SAP Solution Manager system to your CBTA client. Confirm the message.

    You go to the Test Management Self-Checks screen. The system connects to the CBTA client, to determine the self-checks available. This retrieval is dynamic and supports future enhancements and the addition of self-checks via service packs and patches.

    If there are no configuration issue, the first self-check, CBTA COM Object Registration, is green, and the version of the client (COM component) is displayed in the Help column.

  3. If no self-check is available, either the CBTA client is not installed or there is a configuration issue. Do the following:

    • Install the CBTA client. For more information, see SAP Note 1763697Information published on SAP site.

    • Repeat the configuration of CBTA, as described under Prerequisites, above.
