Replace Modules

There is a distinct connection between TestSteps and Modules. In Tricentis Test Automation for SAP, you can exchange Modules in order to define a new technical basis (Modules) for all referenced TestCases. Any existing references between Modules and TestSteps will be maintained upon exchange. In case of XModules and folders, specializations and references are additionally considered (see chapter "Structure XModules").

When Modules are exchanged, all referenced TestCases are executed with a modified technical basis. This allows TestCases of different Module versions to be executed.

Exchanging Modules

In Test Automation for SAP Commander you can exchange individual XModules and Module folders without deleting any references to the TestSteps.
