Create Test Plan for a Project 

Use

You create a test plan for a project in the SAP Solution Manager if you want to reuse the project structure created in the Business Blueprint for a process-oriented test. You can select all the test cases and transactions which you have assigned to the project structure, for the test plan. These test cases are performed by testers; they can call assigned transactions and run test cases in them.

Prerequisites

If you want to create a test plan based on the structure of an SAP Solution Manager project, you have created a project. You have created a system landscape for the project. You have also defined a Business Blueprint with the Configuration transaction, created test cases in the Test cases tab, and assigned them to the structure.

You can also base test plans on test catalogs which are assigned to the application component hierarchy.

Procedure

...

       1.      Start the Test Plan Management.

       2.      Choose Test Plan → Create.

       3.      Enter the following data in the following dialog box:

○       Choose a Solution Manager project and a system role from the possible entries help.

○       You can specify a system data container if you want to put eCATT configurations in the test plan. You can also specify a target system, in which the eCATT configuration is to run.

The values which you specify are displayed as default values in the eCATT configuration initial screen. You can change them.

○       Enter a title for the test plan.

○       You can specify a test sequence.Test sequences are attributes of test plans, with which you can group test plans, and by which you can filter in the status info system

Create test sequences in Solution Manager customizing, under Scenario-Specific Settings → Implementation → Test → Central Test Settings.

       4.      Choose Continue.

       5.      Specify a package in the dialog box for the object directory entry, and choose Continue.

If there is a transportable package for the selected project, it is used to generate the test plan. Otherwise, the system shows you a dialog box for the object directory entry.

The system automatically puts the transactions which you have assigned to the project structure  in the Transactions and Test Cases tabs, in the test plan.

The structure of your project is displayed. You see the attributes of a test case, in the General Data tab.

       6.      Choose elements from the project structure for your test plan.

You can filter the project structure, e.g. by assigned keywords or status. You can also filter test cases by attributes and base a test plan on the selection.

       7.      Choose Generate Test Plan.

The system generates a test plan based on your selection, and returns to the initial screen.

Result

The system has generated a test plan based on your selection. You can now:

●      change, copy or delete the test plan

●      combine test cases and transactions into test packages, and assign them to testers

You can change your test plan later. You can, for example, select additional test cases or transactions, and regenerate your test plan, without losing the status information for test cases which you have already run.
