Configure the integration in the SAP Solution Manager Wizard

The SAP Solution Manager Wizard enables you to integrate SAP Solution Manager into Tricentis Tosca.

Step 1: Prerequisites

The SAP Solution Manager Wizard checks to make sure you’ve successfully completed all the necessary preparation steps. Here's what you can expect:

  • If both prerequisites are marked with green check marks, click Next to go to the next step.

Step 2: Workspace

Please enter your workspace information. You have a couple of options:

  • use your username and password

  • use the clientID and clientSecret from the Tosca Server. Note that, if you choose to enter a Username, make sure to fill in the Password field too, as the clientID and clientSecret will be ignored.

After you have filled all necessary fields, click Next to go to the next step.

Step 3: Solution Manager

It's time to define connection parameters.

You must set the connection type in SAP Solution Manager to Custom Application Server.
SAP Solution Manager Integration supports only the connection type Custom Application Server.

Connection Type in the Connection tab

  1. In the available fields, enter the parameters as described in the table below:

    2. Parameter

    Description

    Example

    SAP Host

    IP address or server name of the SAP Solution Manager System.

    Optionally, select Override incoming SAP application host if you want the SAP Solution Manager System to always use the SAP Host parameter. When you do so, Tricentis Tosca ignores any incoming SAP application host addresses provided by the SAP Solution Manager System. This is useful if your Tricentis Tosca installation is hosted in a different location than the SAP Solution Manager System.

    10.100.8.110

    SAP Client

    Client in the SAP system.

    001

    SAP Instance number

    Two-digit name that identifies the SAP system.

    00

    SAP Username

    SAP GUI user name which you use to log in to SAP Logon. SAP Username is not used for authorization purpose in SAP Solution Manager. This parameter is needed to associate ownership of Test Script that the user can synchronize from Tosca Commander to SAP Solution Manager.

    SAPuser

    SAP Language

    Language used in the SAP system under test.

    This field is filled by default.

    E

    Log Files Path

    Path to the Tricentis Tosca log files.

    This field is filled by default.

    C:\Temp

  2. Select Next.

Step 4: Override RFC Credentials

By default, Tricentis Tosca uses an RFC interface to communicate with SAP Solution Manager. This interface allows both systems to exchange data.

You can create an encrypted password for an SAP technical user. Tricentis Tosca then uses the encrypted password to connect to SAP Solution Manager instead of the password that SAP uses by default. For more information on how to create a technical user in SAP Solution Manager, sign in to SAP Solution Manager and select Configuration (All Scenarios) or open the transaction SOLMAN_SETUP in the SAP GUI. On the left pane, navigate to Test Suite > Test Automation Preparation and select Special Configuration > Create Technical User under Technical System if you're using SP16 or higher, or copy the ECATT user (usually called ECATT_ET_USR and created in the Special configuration/Standard configuration/Manual activity: Generate ECATT user) if you're using SP15 or a lower version of SAP Solution Manager.

The ECATT user needs additional SAP authorizations for SP <14. For more information, see SAP KBA note 3400756 - Test Suite - Integration of third-party-tools S_RFC authorization configuration with SAP Solution Manager 7.2.

To override the default SAP password follow these steps:

  1. Select Override RFC credentials and enter your credentials.

  2. Click Finish to complete the configuration. The subsequent summary screen describes the actions you need to take manually.

Step 5: Further Actions

The last step describes the additional actions needed to successfully complete the integration with SAP Solution Manager:

  1. Register SAP Solution Manager AddIn on your machine

  2. Add SAP GUI security settings

  3. Add SAP GUI visual design options

  4. Prepare SAP Solution Manager

  5. Click Close to exit the SAP Solution Manager Wizard.
