Thyssenkrupp’s SAP ECC to S/4HANA migration exposed slower SAP Fiori test execution, making end-to-end regression testing harder and increasing the need for reliable SAP test automation across both systems.
Worksoft Certify was the only evaluation platform that delivered consistent SAP testing performance in Thyssenkrupp’s real ECC and S/4HANA environment, which mattered because demo speeds from other tools did not hold up under production-like conditions.
This change impacts SAP testing teams, TCoEs, and large manufacturers running dual-system migrations, because a single process-based automation platform with unattended execution and clear reporting reduces manual work, lowers risk, and keeps SAP releases on schedule.
Rigorous Evaluation made Worksoft the Clear Choice for Managing Dual-System SAP Testing Workload
Thyssenkrupp’s migration from SAP ERP Central Component (ECC) to S/4HANA was already a major undertaking when an unexpected issue surfaced. As soon as test execution moved into SAP Fiori, actions that had always been quick in ECC became noticeably slower. With new S/4HANA screens rolling out and business teams relying on timely validation before every release, the slowdown quickly became a serious concern.
Running ECC and S/4HANA in parallel only increased the pressure. ECC needed to remain stable for day-to-day operations, even as S/4HANA was still taking shape. To support both systems throughout the migration, Thyssenkrupp evaluated several automation platforms—including Tricentis, Katalon, and LambdaTest—focusing on how each one handled SAP test execution under real-world conditions.
Worksoft Certify was the only platform that combined reliable execution across both ECC and S/4HANA with the ease of use Thyssenkrupp needed. Certify now gives Thyssenkrupp a consistent way to record business processes, manage variations between ECC and S/4HANA, and run repeatable end-to-end tests. As the complex, multi-year SAP migration continues, Worksoft allows the manufacturer to validate changes with less manual work and gain a clear view of how updates affect critical business processes.
