Enabling Scripting
QuickTest communicates directly with the SAP Gui Scripting API to record and run your
operations on SAP Windows objects. For example, QuickTest records steps based directly on the
API events that are sent from the client to the SAP server. Therefore, to record and run QuickTest
tests and components on your SAP Gui for Windows application, you must enable scripting on
both the server-side and client-side. For more information, see the following sections:
Enabling Scripting on the SAP Application (Server-Side)
Enabling Scripting on the SAP Application (Client-Side)
Enabling Scripting on the SAP Application (Server-Side)
After you confirm that you have the proper support package and kernel patch levels installed, you
must enable scripting on your SAP application. By default, scripting is disabled.
You enable scripting by entering the Maintain Profile Parameters window with administrative
permissions and setting the sapgui/user_scripting profile parameter to TRUE on the application
server.
To enable scripting for all users, set this parameter on all application servers. To enable scripting
for a specific group of users, set the parameter only on application servers with the appropriate
access restriction settings.

Note: If you connect to a server on which scripting is disabled, an error message displays when
you try to record on your SAP Gui for Windows application.
To change the profile parameter:
1. Enter /nrz11 in the OKCode edit box to open transaction rz11.
2. In the Param. Name box of the Maintain Profile Parameters window, enter
sapgui/user_scripting and click the Display button .

Note: If the message Parameter name is unknown is displayed in the status bar, your
client lacks the required support package (see Checking the Patch Version Installed on
your SAP Gui for Windows Application). Download and install the support package that
corresponds to the SAP release you are using and then repeat steps 1 and 2.

The Display Profile Parameter Attributes window opens.
3. If ProfileVal is FALSE, you must modify its value. To modify it, click the Change value
button . The Change Parameter Value window opens.
4. Enter TRUE in the ProfileVal box and click the Save button .
Note: You must enter TRUE in all capital letters. Entering True or true has no effect.
When you save the change, the window closes and the value of the parameter is
displayed as TRUE. However, this change takes effect only when you log on to the
system. Therefore, before beginning to work with the QuickTest Professional Add-in for
SAP Solutions, you must log off and log on again. You may also need to restart the SAP
Service from the SAP Console.
If you find that even after restarting the SAP Service from the SAP Console and logging on again
to the client, your change to the ProfileVal parameter was not saved, you may have an outdated
kernel version. In this case, either restart the application server or download and import the
required kernel patch, as specified below.

6.20 all versions all levels
6.40 all versions all levels

Enabling Scripting on the SAP Application (Client-Side)
To test SAP Gui for Windows applications with QuickTest Professional, you must confirm that
scripting is enabled on the SAP Gui for Windows client.
It is also recommended to disable warning messages in the SAP Gui for Windows environment
when working with QuickTest Professional.
To ensure that scripting is enabled on the SAP Gui for Windows client:
2. Click the Customizing of Local Layout SAP toolbar button and then choose
Options. The Options dialog box opens.
3. Click the Scripting tab.
4. Confirm that the Enable Scripting check box is selected. If the Enable Scripting check
box is cleared, select it.
5. If the Scripting is installed message is not displayed in the Installation area, or the
Enable Scripting check box is disabled, then the SAP GUI Scripting option is not
installed. Reinstall your SAP Gui for Windows application and be sure to select the SAP
GUI Scripting check box.
