Mastering SAP ABAP

Testing SAPUI5 apps

Every SAPUI5 application—either small and simple or very complex—should be considered a software project. The nature of software projects is that, sometimes, they can cause problems or errors, especially when changes are introduced quickly, the developing team changes, or simply due to typos or non-straightforward logic. In order to avoid or at least minimize the risk, all projects should be tested. The SAPUI5 supports several ways of testing, but the most general is mocking data with Mock Servers, unit tests, and integration tests. These three techniques will be covered in the following sections. It is recommended to write a separate index-like file in the test folder, to separate testing area from development.
