Based on this, the influence on the documentation was checked and, above all, the test cases were adapted. In the next phase, the technical conversion was checked several times in test cycles and informal testing was carried out in parallel by the business. With the template approach, tests were mainly carried out at a central level and tests were only carried out in the case of localizations or specific local risks. At the same time, the local sites also had the opportunity to carry out further informal tests. Well over 2000 tests were carried out and followed up. This enabled a large number of potential changes and errors to be found. Numerous change requests had to be recorded, tracked and later also formally tested.<\/p>\n<p>The main challenge, however, was the formal testing, which mainly focused on integrative tests at the local sites. Functional tests were mainly covered by the template team, as the system has a high degree of global standardization. In some cases, more than 10 FTE validation resources had to be coordinated in parallel.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><!--close column table wrapper.
