ATC Cloudification

ABAP Test Cockpit (ATC) — static code analysis for ABAP quality and cloud readiness.

ATC Check Types

Check Category	Source	Example
SAP Standard	Built-in	SELECT * check, PERFORM check
Custom SCI Checks	Customer	Company-specific naming rules
Cloud Readiness	SAP	Non-released API usage
Security	SAP + Custom	SQL injection, auth checks
Performance	SAP + Custom	SELECT in loop detection

Check Variants

ATC Transaction (ATC):
  1. Create check variant: ZROUTER_QUALITY
  2. Select checks:
     ✓ Cloud Readiness (SAP)
     ✓ Security checks (SAP)
     ✓ Performance checks (SAP)
     ✓ Z_CL_CHECK_NAMING (custom)
  3. Assign to package: ZROUTER*

Custom ATC Check

CLASS z_cl_atc_naming DEFINITION PUBLIC FINAL CREATE PUBLIC.
  PUBLIC SECTION.
    INTERFACES if_ci_atc_check.

  PRIVATE SECTION.
    METHODS check_object_name
      IMPORTING io_object TYPE REF TO if_ci_atc_object.
ENDCLASS.

CLASS z_cl_atc_naming IMPLEMENTATION.
  METHOD if_ci_atc_check~run.
    LOOP AT io_check_set->get_objects( ) INTO DATA(lo_object).
      check_object_name( lo_object ).

  ENDMETHOD.

  METHOD check_object_name.
    DATA(lv_name) = io_object->get_name( ).
    IF lv_name NP 'Z*'.
      " Finding: object doesn't start with Z
      io_object->create_finding(
        iv_code = 'Z001'
        iv_text = |Object { lv_name } must start with Z|
        iv_priority = if_ci_atc_finding=>c_priority_medium ).
    ENDIF.
  ENDMETHOD.
ENDCLASS.

ATC Exemption

When a check finding is accepted (false positive or accepted risk):

ATC Result → Right-click → Request Exemption
  → Reason: "External RFC call is via whitelisted destination"
  → Validity: 12 months
  → Approver: QA Lead

Central ATC System

DEV System → Check run → Central ATC (SOLMAN/TMS)
  → Results aggregated across landscape
  → Quality gate in ChaRM / Focused Build

CI/CD Pipeline Integration

# .abapgit-ci.yml
atc:
  check_variant: ZROUTER_QUALITY
  fail_on_priority: [CRITICAL, ERROR]
  max_exemptions: 10
  block_transport_on_failure: true

S/4HANA Custom Code Migration

ATC cloud readiness checks:

• Checks for non-released APIs
• Checks for deprecated function modules
• Checks for direct DB access
• Checks for Dynpro usage

# Run cloud readiness check from command line (via ADT)
# Use sap_router.py for routing
python scripts/sap_router.py route --action BASIS_CODE_ANALYSIS
# → ZROUTER RFC → TRINT_INSPECT_OBJECTS FM

Gotchas

• ATC check runs as current user — auth-limited results if user can't see all objects
• Exemptions must be reviewed — automatic 12-month expiry
• Central ATC needs RFC — SOLMAN or separate ATC system
• Custom checks are SCI classes — implement if_ci_atc_check interface
