About this session

Complete and compliant data

SAP is the heart of operations at many enterprises today, combining with best-of-breed solutions to enable cutting-edge IT strategies. This integrated architecture introduces test data complexity, often slowing down innovation across related systems. Delays in data provisioning can derail upgrades and migrations, as testers and developers require data that links across SAP and non-SAP systems. However, creating anonymised, consistent data for SAP and non-SAP testing is time-consuming and costly. Test data bottlenecks in turn force many organisations to choose between letting their systems fall behind innovation, or spreading sensitive data across less-secure test environments.

To keep pace with new innovation, data provisioning must match the speed, volume and variety demanded by automation frameworks and CI/CD pipelines. Organisations must embed SAP data management within a modern DevOps architecture.

Key takeaways:

This webinar explores a strategy for moving from masking data for SAP and non-SAP systems, to making complete and compliant data available at the speed of automated testing and CI/CD. Veteran test data inventor Huw Price and SAP data management expert Paul Hammersley discussed how organisations can continuously test updates made across SAP and integrated systems. Watch this webinar to discover how:

  • EPI-USE Labs’ SAP test data solution (Data Sync Manager) and Curiosity’s Test Data Automation consistently mask data across SAP and non-SAP systems.
  • Data generation, coverage analysis, and cloning ensure that every framework and parallel test team has access to the data it needs.
  • On-the-fly data allocation provides delay-free data as tests run in automation frameworks and CI/CD pipelines.
