6.0 Inspect

Inspect is the most powerful feature in SAP TAO. Use Inspection to:

• Select transactions from a list of current transactions
  Add new transactions to the current transaction list
  Send the transactions to HP Quality Server and/or a designated directory

When planning a business process test, consider that SAP TAO can generate one business process test at a time. If a business process loops, has inputs or branching logic, or deviates from the logic of the first iteration, split the process into multiple tests. Ultimately, each business process translates into one test script.
When you specify a business process, specify as much static data as possible within the business process definition.
You can always define dynamic or consumable data in a separate process.

Using Inspect to Select Transactions:

Open the Inspect screen from the SAP TAO navigation bar. Use the Inspect screen to import transactions for your
business process test. The Transaction List is unpopulated when you first install SAP TAO. Use the Add to List and
Remove from List buttons to populate and modify the list as needed.

Add a Transaction:

SAP TAO allows you to add one transaction code at a time.
To add a transaction code
1. Click Add. The Add Transaction pop-up window opens.
2. Enter a transaction code.
3. Enter a description for this code in the Description field. (Optional)
4. Select an Importance level from the pull-down list (Business Critical, Warning, Information, Ignore).
5. Click Add. The Transaction Code appears in the Transaction List.
6. Repeat these steps for each transaction code you want to add.

Remove a Transaction

SAP TAO permits you to remove one transaction at a time.
To remove a transaction
1. Select the transaction code you want to delete.
2. Click the left column. The Remove icon (an X inside a circle) appears.
3. A confirmation dialog appears to remove the specific transaction code.
4. Click Yes. The transaction code is removed from the list.

Inspect Components

The Inspect screen displays a group of transactions and associated screens. You may select one or more SAP
transaction code combinations as required by your business processes. Inspection determines if the transactions are valid, and sends them to HP Quality Center. A valid transaction contains screen objects that connect to metadata, or data stored in tables.

To inspect
1. To select one or more screens associated with a transaction code, select the Transaction Code in the Transaction List. The screen associated with this transaction code opens in the Transaction List.
2. To select all the screens, click the Check All link at the bottom of the screen.
3. To choose specific screens, select the checkbox beside each screen.
4. Repeat steps 1–3 to add additional transactions.
5. To view a list of the transaction codes and screens you have selected, click the View All link in the Run Inspection box. You can print out this list.
6. To remove a screen, go back and select each transaction code that you want to change and deselect the box.
7. Click Inspect. Scroll to the right in the Results Window and review the three columns: Inspection Result, CompCreator Result (the directory you specified to save Inspection results), and the Upgrade Result. All three columns must contain an “OK” for the screen to successfully upload to HP Quality Center.
8. If one or more screens fail Inspection, reinspect any screens that failed. If these screens continue to fail:

a. Use the UI Scanner to capture the screen.
b. Send the screen to HP Quality Center.

Using the UI Scanner

The UI Scanner is an add-on for HP Quality Test Professional (HP QTP). It scans most of the data in the screen and
is less restrictive than Inspection.
To run UI Scanner
1. Minimize all the windows on your computer except the screen that you want to scan and HP QTP.
2. Open the file that contains the UI Scanner Code, which you saved during installation.
3. Click Run. The UI Scanner complete its scan.
4. A “Done” message appears.
5. The UI Scanner stores the component in the HP Quality Center in the Transactions area. To locate transactions: Business Components>Components>SAP R3>Transactions.
6. Open the newly scanned transaction code in HP Quality Center and add it to an existing or a new script.
