Risk-Based SAP Testing
with Tricentis LiveCompare
Know what changed, what it affects, and what to test, with independent quality assurance from TTC Global.
SAP upgrades, support packs, enhancement packs, and custom code modifications all carry risk that is difficult to see in advance. Tricentis LiveCompare gives teams a clearer view of where that risk is concentrated, identifying which business processes a change affects so testing can focus on what matters. TTC Global interprets and governs that view, turning risk signals into testing decisions your programme can act on.
Reduce SAP Testing Effort with Tricentis LiveCompare
Tricentis LiveCompare, also available as SAP Change Impact Analysis by Tricentis, identifies which business processes are affected by a given change and where risk is concentrated. This makes a risk-based approach possible, where testing effort is prioritised by impact rather than volume.
With AI-powered analytics and insights, Tricentis LiveCompare provides SAP teams with the ability to significantly reduce the risk, time, and cost of delivering and supporting changes across SAP programmes.
TTC Global operates independently of systems integrators and delivery partners, so assurance is never shaped by someone else's delivery commitments.
TTC Global's Tricentis-certified consultants apply LiveCompare's findings within the wider context of programme risk, turning analysis into release decisions.
Through Intelligent Quality Engineering, we combine AI-enhanced automation with a risk-led, governed framework, so testing effort goes where it matters most.
Part of TTC Global's Quality Intelligence Practice
Tricentis LiveCompare is one part of our broader Quality Intelligence capability. Whether we are testing SAP, ERP platforms, or custom applications, TTC Global applies the same principle: understand what has changed and what it affects before deciding what to test.
Frequently Asked Questions About LiveCompare
Also known as SAP Change Impact Analysis by Tricentis, LiveCompare is an AI-powered impact analysis tool for SAP. It identifies which business processes, custom code, configuration, and security settings a change affects, then maps those findings against existing test coverage to show exactly what needs testing. This is quality intelligence applied to SAP; with LiveCompare, organisations can understand the impact of change before it becomes operational risk. Using a scalable, risk-based testing approach, TTC Global delivers LiveCompare within a governed quality framework, so the analysis informs release decisions at scale.
Risk-based testing prioritises validation effort according to the impact of a change, rather than applying equal depth across the full system. LiveCompare identifies which SAP objects, business processes, and data are affected by a transport, support pack, or upgrade, then selects only the tests covering the most at-risk areas. This avoids both over-testing, which wastes time on low-risk areas, and under-testing, which leaves defects to surface in production. For SAP environments managing S/4HANA migrations, cloud transitions, and growing integration complexity, the ability to direct testing by evidence is what keeps release cycles manageable.
LiveCompare reduces SAP testing time by identifying exactly which business processes, code, and configuration a change affects, so testing effort concentrates on what is at risk rather than the full system. This risk-based approach has been shown to cut release test scope by around 85 per cent while maintaining full risk coverage, reducing both testing time and the cost of validating routine changes.
No. LiveCompare identifies what has changed and where risk is concentrated, but it does not decide which risks matter most, how much testing is enough, or when a system is ready for release. Those decisions benefit from independent governance. TTC Global interprets LiveCompare's output within the wider context of programme risk, so the resulting test plan reflects considered judgement rather than tool output alone.
