Tester hierarchy

The tester hierarchy is modeled in the organizational chart in an ARIS modeling environment using the Organizational unit object (OT_ORG_UNIT). The hierarchy between the objects is represented by the is superior connection.

Tester hierarchy structure

A tester hierarchy element is therefore created in ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager for each organizational unit (exception: the top hierarchy element already exists in ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager). At present, each hierarchy element can only be assigned to one user group.

Thus, for the above example, the tester hierarchy elements Tester groups headquarter, Tester group "Sales", and Tester group "Finance" are created in ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager. Tester groups headquarter is superior to the other hierarchy elements.
