This review is from: Testing SAP Solutions (Hardcover)

Book is broken into 3 parts: Methodology (20%), Functional Testing (55%) and Performance Testing (25%). In the functional and performance testing parts, there is a balance between discussions on testing infrastructure - such as the SAP Solution Manager, detailed how-to using tools like eCATT, and mini-case studies from customers that will assist a customer to view testing in a bigger picture. The book isn't a replacement for an eCATT training course. It is aimed more at those with responsibility for the planning and implementation of testing.
