Worksoft Achieves Certified Integration with SAP NetWeaver

DALLAS – April 29, 2010 – Worksoft®, an innovative provider of test and lifecycle automation solutions for use with SAP® applications, today announced that Worksoft Certify® version 8 has been certified by SAP AG for integration with the SAP NetWeaver® Application Server (SAP NetWeaver AS). This certification, called BC-eCATT, provides customers with the confidence and assurance that Worksoft Certify has met SAP’s stringent test automation requirements for integration, interoperability and data management within SAP Solution Manager-based environments that leverage application testing.

The SAP Integration and Certification Center (SAP ICC) has certified that Worksoft Certify version 8 integrates with SAP NetWeaver AS via the integration scenario test tool integration into eCATT via the SAP GUI for Windows (BC-eCATT) 6.2. Through this new test automation framework, the BC-eCATT interface is the enabler for ISV test tools, such as Worksoft Certify v8, allowing integration with SAP Solution Manager.

"The script-less test automation capabilities of Worksoft Certify, when used in combination with the test management capabilities of SAP Solution Manager, will deliver additional automation features, especially in cross-platform test scenarios," said Shoeb Javed, VP Engineering, Worksoft. "Worksoft Certify integrated with SAP NetWeaver AS will allow customers to validate SAP business processes that cross a variety of application interfaces, including the SAP GUI and SAP NetWeaver Portal, as well as other HTML-based aplications."

The SAP BC-eCATT certification provides validation that Worksoft Certify conforms to SAP’s integration standards and complies with SAP’s recommended integration for value-added SAP Solution Manager applications. When using Worksoft Certify in conjunction with SAP Solution Manager, customers can realize improved usability and more advanced automation capabilities including:

  • Script-less Test Automation: A single solution designed for business analysts and supporting true, end-to-end business process validation. Many application interfaces and technology platforms are supported, including the SAP GUI, SAP NetWeaver Portal, Java and Adobe Interactive Forms as well as HTML, .NET, mainframe and iSeries.
  • Test Management: Worksoft Certify automated test processes can be stored, modified, viewed and executed from within the test workbench of SAP Solution Manager. Certify test results are then stored in the SAP Solution Manager database where they can be viewed directly through the SAP Solution Manager interface.
