Service
Test Automation
for Enterprise Software
SAP upgrades, release changes, patches, S/4HANA migrations: every change requires extensive testing. And every time it’s the same story: 400 test cases, 6 weeks manual, 3 FTEs blocked. We automate your software tests end-to-end, so releases go to production faster, safer, and at lower cost.
The Reality
Why manual testing is slowing down your organisation
Every SAP note, every patch, every release requires testing. But manual tests are slow, expensive, error-prone and the bottleneck for every IT change in your organization.
6 weeks for a regression test
400 test cases, 3 testers, 6 weeks full-time. Every SAP upgrade, every S/4HANA migration step, every major patch. The IT department is stuck in test mode for months, instead of delivering value.
Manual tests catch only 60% of defects
People get tired, miss variants, test happy paths. Critical edge cases go uncovered. The defect surfaces in production and costs 10x to fix.
Testing blocks innovation
Every process change, every new automation, every RPA update needs testing. When testing takes 6 weeks, changes get postponed, or deployed without sufficient testing. Both are dangerous.
How We Solve It
Not just test execution - the entire test cycle
We don’t just automate the clicking. We automate the entire test cycle: test case design, test data preparation, execution, validation, and reporting. End-to-end, repeatable, overnight.
Test Case Design & Prioritisation
AI-powered analysis of your business processes identifies critical test paths, edge cases, and regression risks. Test cases are automatically generated and prioritised by business risk, not gut feel.
Automated Test Execution
RPA bots execute test cases through the actual user interface – just like a human, but faster, more accurate, and at 3 AM. SAP GUI, Fiori, web applications, APIs – all testable.
Validation & Reporting
Results automatically validated against expected values. Defects classified, screenshots captured, test protocol generated. Dashboard shows test status, coverage, and risks in real time. Audit-ready from day one.
The Difference
Manual Testing vs. Automated Testing
| Manual Status Quo | Automated with Lunatec | |
|---|---|---|
| Regression Test (400 cases) | 6 weeks, 3 FTEs | 4 days, 0 FTEs Overnight run |
| Test Coverage | 60–70% Happy paths only | 95%+ Incl. edge cases |
| Repeatability | Variable (human error) | 100% identical, every time |
| Overnight Runs | Not possible | Standard Tests run overnight |
| Documentation | Excel-based Often incomplete | Automatic, audit-ready With screenshots |
| Cost per Release | €80K–€150K | €15K–€30K |
In Practice
Manual SAP Testing vs. Automated SAP Testing
Same company, same release, same 420 test cases, different outcomes.
- Test cases gathered from old Word documents
- 3 testers allocated for 6 weeks
- Test data manually created in SAP
- Testers only work daytime — no overnight runs
- Happy paths tested, edge cases skipped
- Results documented in Excel — 40% incomplete
- 2 critical defects discovered in production
- 420 test cases generated from process analysis & prioritized
- Test data automatically created & anonymized (GDPR)
- RPA bots test via SAP GUI — overnight & on weekends
- Runtime: 14 hours instead of 6 weeks
- 95%+ coverage incl. all edge cases
- Automatic test protocol with screenshots
- 22 defects found before go-live — 4 critical
Use Cases
Where Test Automation Has the Greatest Leverage
Wherever tests are regularly repeated, complexity is high, or compliance demands complete documentation.
SAP & Enterprise Systems
- S/4HANA migration – hundreds of test cases per migration wave
- SAP upgrades & support packages – regression tests with every patch
- SAP Fiori & GUI – UI-based tests through the actual interface
- Salesforce, D365, ServiceNow – CRM and service workflows
- Integration tests – end-to-end across SAP + CRM + portal + billing
- API testing – REST/SOAP interfaces automatically validated
Compliance & Automation
- GxP-validated testing – pharma & life sciences
- SOX-compliant – documented, repeatable control evidence
- Regulatory-compliant – financial services requirements met
- RPA bot testing – safeguarding the automation itself
- Release gates – automatic go/no-go decisions based on test results
- Audit readiness – test protocol as a byproduct, not extra effort
Typical Results
What Our Clients Achieve
with Test Automation
Case Study: Test automation at trade fair
A complex IT landscape spanning multiple environments and applications - from event management and ticketing to exhibitor services - made comprehensive testing essential, and increasingly unmanageable. Every process in every application, as well as the complete end-to-end workflow, required regular testing. The result: a growing backlog of time-intensive manual test cases that slowed release cycles, tied up resources, and raised the risk of production defects.
Lunatec automated all relevant test cases using UiPath Test Automation - from individual applications through to the complete E2E process. The new test architecture enables full regression testing at every release cycle with zero manual effort. The result: dramatically shorter test runs, comprehensive E2E coverage, and significant time and cost savings from the very first year of operation.
Why Lunatec
Test automation is automation, our core business
We’re not pure testing consultants. We’re automation experts who deliver test automation as a natural extension of our portfolio. The same RPA bots that automate your processes also test your software.
