[ Real Experience. Real Advantage. Economics of Testing Automation A simplified view Cost of test automation iAS virtually eliminates manual automation script creation and drastically reduces script maintenance efforts If a test script will be run every week for the next two years, automate the test if the cost of automation is less than the cost of manually executing the test 104 times. Cost of automation Cost of manually executing the test as many times as the automated test will be executed Cost of test automationCost of tool(s) Labor costs of script creation Labor costs of script maintenance Automate if: = + + iAS is uniquely positioned to continuously deliver value at any level of complexity

[ Real Experience. Real Advantage. iAS – A Transformational Leap in Testing Automation COMPREHENSIVE BP TEST AUTOMATION Automated Script Generation Automated Parameterisation Automated Maintenance Full repeatability Full reusability across projects iAS makes possible substantial acceleration of automation script development by automating the generation of immediately executable automation scripts… Advancements in Application Testing Technologies TEST AUTOMATION Manual Script Development Manual Script Updates Improved Management Automated Execution MANUAL TESTING Manual Scripting Manual Management Manual Execution MANUAL TESTING Manual Scripting Manual Management Manual Execution ACCELERATED AUTOMATION Manual Script Parameterisation Manual Maintenance Project-Specific Libraries Limited Repeatability A technology Leap in BPT Automation Technologies HP BPT SAP TAO Worksoft HP QTP IBM Rational Compuware

[ Real Experience. Real Advantage. iAS Value Reduce Cost by over 60%Reduce Schedule by over 80% Script Development & Maintenance Reduce project risk overall through automation by designing in script integrity & reliability while eliminating unnecessary manual intervention * Typical refers to a project where QC/QTP or a similar technologies are used to develop automation *

[ Real Experience. Real Advantage. True Testing Acceleration Total effort (Hours) 35 Business Processes w/ 10 steps in each on average Over 60% Cost Reduction iAS delivers measurable ROI in the first cycle Total effort w/iAS less than the first cycle setup effort of competitors

[ Real Experience. Real Advantage. Testing Automation - Key Issues  High cost of manual automation and maintenance typically limits scope  ROI of classic automation is typically in 5 to 10 test cycles  Testing automation often an ad-hoc effort  Test automation performed primarily by specialists  Significant manual intervention introduces a new layer of defects  Reuse of test automation sessions is mainly a trial and error process  High expertise requirements usually precludes in-house automation TYPICAL RESULTS − Schedule Overruns − Budget Overruns − Difficulty Maintaining Production Environment TYPICAL RESULTS − Schedule Overruns − Budget Overruns − Difficulty Maintaining Production Environment

[ Real Experience. Real Advantage. iAS Value Proposition  SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE BPT AUTOMATION COVERAGE  SIGNIFICANTLY DECREASE AUTOMATION COSTS  ELIMINATE LABOR COSTS FOR REPETITIVE WORK  ACCELERATE TIME TO GO-LIVE SIGNIFICANTLY  DECREASE AUTOMATION COMPLEXITY Accomplish more with iAS and 2 technical resources than you do with 10 technical resources today

[ Real Experience. Real Advantage. Automation Development & Management Automated Executable Script Generation BPT Management iAS is tightly integrated to HP QC to leverage robust script manipulation, management and execution capability iAS directly accesses 3 rd party TDM systems integrating Test Data Management into a comprehensive test automation process TDM Script Management & Execution HP SAP Modules SAP DB SAP GUI

[ Real Experience. Real Advantage. High Level Architecture iAS is ready to deploy “out of the box” with no dependency on library imports. Business components are generated by iAS and automatically transferred to QC for Management and Execution Generates its own data tables to separate data management from the automation effort Automatically updates BPT components for GUI modifications Generates simple yet information rich reports that contribute significantly to reducing the defect management cycle.

Simplified Maintenance via Modularity Goto TCode ME51 Initial Screen: Doc type Delivery Date Plant Storage Location Purchasing Group Item Overview: Material QTY Requested Save PR Number (Consolidated Mega Process) Procure to Pay (Consolidated ) Create PR (Consolidated ) Process PR (Consolidated ) Create PO from PR (Consolidated ) Enter Goods Receipt for PO (Consolidated ) Entering and Checking Invoices Initial Screen: enter Doc Date Posting Date Company Code Tax Purchasing Doc Select Menu: Invoice Doc / Post Goto TCode MIRO The iAS solution facilitates the building of modular BP component designed to simplify test automation and ultimately application maintenance. Consolidation offers users an intuitive method for managing the BP Scenarios that comprise the larger mega processes. Connected components comprise larger components of functionality which are in turn connected to create complete BP scenarios and ultimately an end-to-end BP Driven Test Scenario Consolidated components execute much faster than unconsolidated components

[ Real Experience. Real Advantage. 100% Support for Distributed Development Environments iAS’ structured modular framework allows teams in different locations to collaborate seamlessly on the testing effort in an efficient rather than duplicative process. This allows application development to proceed in a distributed environment without sacrificing quality of implementation. Other typical automation practices are better suited for a single team in one location.
