Panaya Test Automation requires minimal setup. It is a cloud-based solution that integrates seamlessly with existing ERP systems, such as SAP, Oracle, and Salesforce.
The setup consists of the following required elements.
User Creation
The creation of Panaya login credentials for all users who are required to capture, edit, and play scripts, as well as review automated test execution, build reports, and track progress.
Project Creation
Create a dedicated testing project for your automation tests. You can create as many projects as you like, each with the same or a different set of users. Each project can include automated and manual tests from different functional areas, domains, applications, etc.

Panaya's ScriptBuilder
Panaya's ScriptBuilder is a codeless tool that simplifies creating and maintaining automated test scripts. It allows users to build test cases without programming skills through a user-friendly, drag-and-drop interface. By capturing user interactions with the application, ScriptBuilder automatically generates reusable test scripts that can be adapted for various test scenarios. It also supports dynamic parameterization, making it easier to test different input combinations, and integrates with Panaya's overall platform to provide end-to-end testing capabilities with minimal manual effort.
Panaya's ScriptBuilder should be up and running on every automation engineer's machine so they can record, play, and manage automation scripts.
Follow the ScriptBuilder setup article to set it up for users.
Panaya's Automation Agent
Panaya's Automation Agent is a lightweight, client-side tool that facilitates communication between Panaya's cloud-based platform and the user's local testing environment. It enables the execution of automated tests on systems such as SAP or Oracle without requiring manual intervention. The agent runs the test scripts created through Panaya’s ScriptBuilder, ensuring they are executed in the correct environment. It also collects test data, logs, and execution results, sending them back to Panaya's cloud platform for analysis and reporting. This agent simplifies running and managing automated tests by providing seamless connectivity and automation in a secure, scalable way.
At least one Agent should be successfully set up on a remote machine that can execute automated tests with access to your ERP system and other AUT. Your IT administrator typically performs this setup.
