Definition

Unit tests are code fragments that execute parts of the domain code in order to ensure functional correctness. Unit testing is part of modern programming techniques like extreme programming or test driven development.

In general it is most useful to allow unit testing in development systems but not required in most other systems.

As both test code as well as domain code can contain subtle bugs there is a small potential risk always when one executes unit tests that may have impact to repositories or system resources.

With the switch "Prohibit Test Execution" administrators can switch off ABAP Unit test execution for non development systems.

The dialog forCustomizing settings can be used to enforce such a system policy..
