SWAT Test Automation
About the innovation:
A unique blend of methodology, technical capabilities and organizational aspects to quickly set up sustainable test automation for any application based on the actual risk profile of the underlying business process. Finally, End-to-End test automation can be introduced quickly without impeding the normal change delivery flow. In this project example, the client asked for test automation across their S/4 HANA logistics, procurement and warehouse management solutions.
SWAT (Software Agile Testing) is a software testing methodology developed by Sixsentix that combines agile development practices with a risk-based approach to testing. It emphasizes continuous testing and provides a framework for integrating testing into the agile development process.

History:
Initial discussion with client after an assessment of their current testing activities in order to help them meet their year-end goals. The test automation scope is defined based on the risk-based assessment. Infrastructure is setup, SWAT team is fully onboarded and started with test automation activities.
The automated End-to-End scenarios are extended to multiple countries across two environment stacks (maintenance & project tracks).
1500+ automated regression tests are executed on a weekly basis to support the manual testing activities for the new release during both SIT and UAT.
Handover documents preparation and knowledge transfer sessions execution to enable the client to run the delivered Test Automation Regression Portfolio on their own.

IT Quality
Regulatory testing refers to test management processes which are mandated by regulatory agencies.
In order to achieve the goal of fulfilling the specified regulations – e.g. MaRisk AT 7.2 and AT 8.1, BAIT 10 and 41, DSGVO Art. 1 – and implementing them successfully in the organization, Sixsentix had defined certain objectives and work packages that had to be delivered first, such as central test plan, concepts for system integration test requirements, bundling and impact analysis etc.
The implementation procedure for each of the work packages was always the same: Sixsentix developed a multi-layered, multi-staged process to discuss the feedback with the respective stakeholders from the client’s business departments, IT (development and operations) and internal compliance / worker’s council.
Phases:
1. Assessment
Assessment of Status quo and individual regulatory requirements.
2. High level concept
Definition of high level concept with a focus on regulatory requirements.
3. Detailed concept
Definition of detailed concept which fulfils the regulatory requirements and defines the required processes.
4. Rollout
Communication of the implemented processes within the organisation and establishment of a continuous improvement process.
