Testing Workflow deadlines, wait steps, logically deleted cases etc.

[Tom Peou]

 Krishna,

Updating the WF technical data in the runtime environment is the easiest way
to hit your deadlines without waiting.
I doubt you want to change system dates or change the development (and
transport) or direct table updates.

> Hi friends

> Our functional testers usually find it tough to test workflow deadlines.
> Basically because, it involves changing the deadlines, sometimes testing
> logically deleted scenario, sometimes completing wait steps (ex: wait for
> two days). So they are dependent on technical team for performing these
> actions.
>
> What is the best way to get this done?
> Is there any option similar to changing sy-datum to simulate these
> deadlines? (I feel changing sy-datum itself can be very risky and can create
> db inconsistencies). I am looking for any other ways which functional
> testers can use, without actually getting into technical data of work items.
