Oracle Test Automation: Due to low operating costs, high flexibility, scalability, and real-time access to corporate data, enterprises across the globe are migrating to cloud ERP solutions. Among some of the promising cloud ERP vendors, Oracle has gained significant recognition across the globe. This is evident from the fact that Oracle was recognized in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud ERP in 2018. Whether you’re implementing ERP Cloud ERP greenfield or migrating from on-premise Oracle EBS, you need to understand that it is the devil in details.

Oracle is a massive application and to ensure that your migration/ implementation remains a success, you need a test focus migration/ implementation strategy. In case of fresh implementation, scope along with testing is crucial to ensure that the project is delivered within timelines. In case of Oracle EBS to Oracle Cloud migration, pre-migration, in-migration, and post-migration testing is required to ensure that your ERP is properly configured and data is safe.

Since Oracle implementation/ migration requires multiple test cycles, manual testing isn’t considered as a viable solution. All you need is a test automation platform that accelerates testing cycles and offers minimum burden on business users. In this guide, we’ll discuss how test automation can transform testing and what are the challenges in implementing Oracle automation.

What if you don’t use automation?

Without automation, testers need to perform regression testing of all the processes manually. Not only, this is time consuming but also resource intensive and prone to inaccuracies. The test results were either documented or uploaded to a shared hard disk so that all the stakeholders can have access to them. The overall process is a bit shaky and risk coverage cannot be assured as regressions used to be run based on the experience and guesses.

Best practice – Incorporate test automation

The success of ERP implementation depends on business users who know their day-to-day business processes best and not on the developers or implementation partners. So, they need to be actively involved in testing. However, multiple test cycles if performed manually can be frustrating for business users as they have other important chores to do.

Test Automation eliminates the requirement of extensive user involvement in the testing cycles. Since most of the things can be done with a single click, business users need to devote a smaller portion of their time for test validation. However, there is a catch in this. Business users are not programmers. However, most of the test automation platforms available have following:

  • Most of Oracle test automation platforms available in the market such as Selenium are script-based. It means that they’re developed with a programming mindset and require coding knowledge to create test cases. However, business users don’t have such skills to create test automation scripts.
  • Oracle is a highly dynamic application. It means that it doesn’t have fixed attributes like ID, CSS, Name, Class, and Xpath. A slight change in the UI can make test scripts flaky/ brittle. Thus, test automation platforms with static scripts cannot automatically adapt to tests, resulting in test failures.
  • Since Oracle rolls out quarterly updates that come with new features and functionalities, there are chances that change in apps’ UI can make tests unstable. Thus, automation scripts need to be maintained every time an update is rolled out. This will put QA teams under tremendous pressure as maintaining test automation scripts 4 times a year can be very tedious.

Address test automation challenges with

Zero Code Testing: Always opt for codeless test automation platform that allows business users to participate in testing. One such Oracle automation tool is “Opkey” which business users can use to create test automation scripts without requiring programming knowledge.

Self-healing: Since test automation script maintenance is a challenging task in Oracle testing, opt for an automation framework that alleviates the maintenance burden. “Opkey” is a one-such Oracle test automation platform that autonomously heals the impacted scripts without requiring human efforts.

Risk-based Testing: “Opkey” is a risk-based continuous test automation platform that highlights risks by comparing previous instances with updated instances. Test engineers don’t need to make guesses as AI-powered engines of “Opkey” recommend test cases that need to be executed to keep business risks at bay.
