OpKey's Automation Scripts now Certified With Oracle Cloud 20A Upgrade
Scope:
This document gives an overview of Automation impacted modules and functionalities, functional updates and issues related to 20A Oracle Cloud HCM module. The document also provides test guidance to our customers to have critical runs in place for a quick sanity.
Overview of Automation Impact:
Provides all automation changes on the application related to Oracle HCM Cloud update 20A. It contains information on property change labels, Dom structure changes and object property changes on primary labels impacting critical test artifacts. Tools using Selenium would break due to significant changes in object properties whereas @opkey we use ‘Visual Identification’ proprietary technology and hence this becomes a ZERO IMPACT scenario for us.
Details of impacted changes can be seen below:
Receivables
Integration Support for Bank related Objects
You can now create and maintain your bank and bank branches using integration keys. This allows you to update the attributes that are usually used to identify the bank or branch to be updated, such as bank and branch name and number.
These keys are more reliable as compared to the User Keys which are subjected to change at times.
Expenses
Create Expense Item>Itemized table now appears at the frontend which was under ‘Itemize’ option in previous instance, table inaccessible due to Dom structure change
Purchasing
Conversion rates aren’t available when PO Distributions are created using REST impacting integrations
Transaction Console takes significantly longer time to load
First Party Tax Registration number is blank when using PO web service
Core HR
(A) New Business Objects Supported
Data loading capabilities are extended to support ‘Question’, ‘Questionnaire template’ and ‘Questionnaire’
(B) Document Records REST API Doesn’t Validate Mismatch
When using REST API to load document record attachments, if there’s a mismatch between the attachment type and content this isn’t validated.
Under ‘Family Emergency Contacts’ >Selection and Addition of Co-worker> ‘Selection criteria’ inaccessible due to Dom structure change
Payroll
‘Create’ button on ‘Create Element Entries’ inaccessible due to Dom structure change
Benefits
Search employee under ‘Enrollment’ inaccessible due to Dom structure change
Absence Management
‘Load Disbursement HDL’ is now taking too long to respond and then inaccessible due to loading extensively increased.
Helpdesk
Knowledge>Authoring>Create Article > ‘Action’ dropdown inaccessible due to Dom structure change
Helpdesk>HR Service Requests > Message box inaccessible due to Dom structure change
Compensation
Compensation > Manage Salary > ‘Actions’ dropdown button inaccessible due to Dom structure change
Test Guidance from OpKey
Before each Upgrade is applied to customer environments, we run a comprehensive series of automated tests to validate the features being released against various levels of the environment. These tests validate:
-> The health of the build in a simulated existing customer environment
-> Successful execution of tests in a simulated new customer environment
-> End-to-end business process flows
-> Primary use case scenarios
-> Alternate use case scenarios
-> Additional scenarios derived from design specifications
