• Key Concepts: 
  Test method is a feature of the ABAP Runtime Environment (BC-ABA) that allows developers to test their code before it is deployed. It allows developers to simulate the runtime environment and check for errors or unexpected results.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the test method, developers must first create a test class in the ABAP Workbench. This class will contain the code that needs to be tested. Once the class is created, developers can then use the test method to simulate the runtime environment and check for errors or unexpected results.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the test method, it is important to remember that it only simulates the runtime environment and does not guarantee that the code will work correctly when deployed. It is also important to thoroughly test all code before deploying it.
