SME can use number of components to create user scenarios, validate them and optimize the business flow-all without ever having to touch any procedural code or keywords. SME just selects the desired component from a tree structured list, double clicks on it to add it to Mercury Business Process Testing Workspace.This construct makes it possible to create data-driven manual test libraries in minutes. In addition SME can copy and paste components, business process tests, and test sets within Quality Center Projects, so it is possible to leverage testing assets across multiple applications and different testing teams.

Advantages of Automating Buisness Process:

Provides entire QA team with collaborative solution

Starts Quality process Automation sooner

Automates maintenance and reduces cost

Ensure visibility and verification with auto Documentation
