SAP® Test Consulting

SAP® projects tend to be highly complex: The high level of integration of SAP applications means that business processes are becoming increasingly prone to disruption due to IT issues. SAP® Test Consulting from SQS gives you the support you need to assure a consistently high level of quality in your applications and thus prevent disruption.

Whilst from a functional perspective the high level of integration offered by SAP applications is a key benefit, any quality shortcomings can have a far-reaching impact on a company's business activities. As a result, every SAP customer is faced with the task of maintaining a consistently high level of system quality both during the project phases and in live operation – testing therefore represents an integral day-to-day task and limits the risks to an acceptable degree. In daily system operation in particular, professional test management helps to guarantee fully functional software.

Objectives of professional test management

The secret to success is to prepare, plan and conduct the tests as efficiently as possible: The specialist departments and key users have to be relieved of testing activities. In addition, the testing organisation needs to have the flexibility to react quickly to any changes and be able to conduct tests. A resource-efficient and flexible approach to testing helps to ensure the quality of the software in use whilst keeping costs down.
