Better for Both Quality Managers
and Product Managers
To address this challenge, SAP has
developed an adapter that integrates
the SAP® Solution Manager application
management solution and the SAP
Quality Center application by HP, used
for software testing. This allows you to
transfer your business blueprint structure and related documents, specifications, business requirements, links, and
test objects such as transactions, implementation guide activities, or custom
programs. Quality managers use this
information to plan and structure their
test projects efficiently. Integration
between the service desk of SAP Solution Manager and the defect management of SAP Quality Center makes test
execution faster and more transparent.
Higher Quality, Less Cost,
Reduced Risk
Integration between the tools lets testing teams work in their familiar environments. Because information for one
application is made visible in the other,
your IT staff doesn’t have to master
separate testing tools, and you have a
far more efficient testing process that
improves software quality and reliability.
Testing is standardized and integrated
projectwide, and information is consolidated in a single view to support informed release decisions. The efficiency you gain can reduce costs and, more
importantly, help minimize the risk of
outages and other problems caused by
poor testing.
