With traditional SAP tools, testing role and authorization changes can be labor-intensive, time-consuming, and expensive. Both from a security administrators time and that of your business users.
Some of the challenges the Security administrators face would be:
Setting up the test environment
Creation of test scripts and test data
Coordination of the actual testing
And supporting authorization and test user issues as they come up during the test
For your test users, typically business users, they are faced with time away from their normal workload to conduct security testing and frustration with the normal start and stop flow of traditional security testing.
With PTS, Security administrators have complete control over test simulations. The test simulations can be started and stopped at their discretion with no need to coordinate schedules with test users.
Any authorization issues that are identified by the simulation are logged and do not cause the testing to stop. This allows the security administrators the ability to analyze issues and make updates to roles and authorizations on a more efficient time line.
Testing is conducted in the production system while your business users are doing their normal day-to-day work. In most situations, the business users don't even know they are testing. They remain 100% productive.
Because the end users do not have to interrupt their day-to-day work to conduct security testing, user acceptance of changes is typically much higher than with traditional SAP tools.
