In the test editor, SAP call elements are located in SAP
screen elements and describe various recorded interactions with the
SAP R/3 server. These settings apply to the selected SAP event.
- SAP element label
- This is the name of the selected SAP test element as it is displayed in
the Test Contents. Use this field to rename the test element, or click Restore
Default to revert to the default name.
- Think Time
- Specifies the programmatically-calculated time delay that is observed
for each user when this test is run with multiple virtual users. Think time
is a statistical emulation of the amount of time actual users spend reading
or thinking before performing an action.
SAP Call
- Method name
- This is the internal method call used by the SAP GUI client. This
field is read-only.
- Parameter
- If the method uses parameters, one Parameter line is displayed for each parameter. Advanced users can modify
these parameters. Refer to SAP documentation for more information
about the parameters used by SAP GUI method calls. You can use data
correlation to substitute this value.
- Return
- If the method returns a value, a Return line is displayed, which can be used for data correlation or for
a verification point. The value displayed is not the actual return
value, but only represents the type of the parameter, for example, string for a string type or 0 for an integer. Refer to SAP documentation for more information
about the parameters used by SAP GUI method calls.
Verification Point
- Enable Verification Point
- When selected, the test verifies whether the Return value of the SAP call (if any) matches the value specified in Expected Value. An error is reported in the test log
if the value returned during the test does not match the expected
value.
- Expected Value
- This field enables you to specify the expected value for the call.
The expected value can optionally be expressed as a regular expression.
You can use data correlation to substitute this value.
- Use Regular Expression
- Select this option to express the expected value using standard
regular expression syntax.
