BPT is an acronym for Business Process Testing. This process includes the work of SME, Subject Matter Expert, and AE, Automation Engineer. Each of them has a particular number of defined actions while performing BPT.

The Duties of SME Are:

• to define the business elements;
• to combine the elements into some test plans;
• to check the business process.

Subject Matter Experts know everything about different tested components of the application. Besides, they are aware of several business processes that should be testes too. It is not obligatory for SME to have special knowledge in programming to prepare automated tests.

To create the testes that are needed for the business testing procedure, SME use the business elements and test plan data in Quality Center.

• AE defines the resources and settings with the help of Quick Test.
