Job description

Work You'll Do

Test Planning & Strategy: Design and execute test strategies for SAP HCM Time Management and Payroll, covering complex custom Personnel Calculation Rules (PCRs), schema modifications, and custom ABAP reports/objects.

Functional Testing: Build and execute test scenarios for time evaluation (RPTIME00), quota processing (RPTQTA00), retroactive payroll accounting, and payroll schema/PCR changes, validating results against business rules and collective agreement requirements.

Regression Testing: Own regression test coverage for payroll and time processes impacted by ongoing configuration/development changes, ensuring existing custom rules and reports are not broken by new builds.

Automation Testing: Design, build, and maintain automated test scripts (e.g., using TOSCA or equivalent tools) for SAP HCM time/payroll transactions, reducing manual testing effort and enabling faster regression cycles.

Defect Management: Log, triage, and track defects through resolution; work closely with functional and ABAP development teams to validate fixes and retest.

Test Data Management: Prepare and manage test data sets for complex retroactive and time/payroll scenarios, including multiple payroll areas and personnel subgroups.

SIT/UAT Support: Execute System Integration Testing (SIT) and support User Acceptance Testing (UAT) cycles, coordinating with business and technical stakeholders on sign-off.

Documentation: Maintain test scripts, test result logs, and traceability matrices linking test cases to functional/technical requirements.
