Automated testing within JD Edwards does not have to be complex. In this session, we will demonstrate how the Forza TestTool can test complete purchasing processes quickly and reliably—fully automated and without manual intervention.

Following the demo during the OBUG meeting in November 2025, which focused on the sales process, we are now turning our attention to the purchasing process. We will demonstrate how the TestTool combines reusable test sets, clear documentation, and structured results to efficiently validate order entry, approval/rejection processes, print PO processes, and receipts.

Whether you are implementing, planning a tool or application upgrade, or making changes to the configuration, automated testing shortens turnaround time, reduces errors, and increases the quality of your JD Edwards environment.
