Manual testing  increases the required costs and timelines during SAP Digital Transformation. In today’s interconnected landscapes, it cannot provide the agility & rapid feedback necessary for SAP Testing & QA teams during SAP upgrades that involve customizations, enhancements, and add-ons.  Companies are now looking to spend less and automate more to reduce the cost and timeline involved in SAP testing. However, considering today’s complex landscapes, integrated processes, and future innovations, automation of the SAP testing lifecycle is just the first step. Auto-detecting process changes to execute autonomous testing based on business process criticality is the path forward.  A DXaaS (Digital Transformation as a Service) product, KTern Digital Labs, can help companies  adopt autonomous testing with minimal configurations and reduce up to 80% of the overall testing effort.  Check out this document and the webinar recording of the same name on YouTube to find out how Ratna, Founder of KTern and SAP Veteran with 25+ years of Digital Transformation expertise, walks us through on how companies can rethink SAP Testing with automation.
