In the SAP Activate methodology, the Realize phase is focused on the iterative build and configuration of the solution, followed by comprehensive testing. During this phase, detailed Functional Test Scenarios are created to validate the configured processes and custom developments. Concurrently, preparation for the final validation stage begins, which includes the creation of the User Acceptance Test - Plan. This plan outlines the scope, schedule, resources, and procedures for the UAT, which is executed towards the end of the Realize phase and into the Deploy phase.

B. Test Strategy: This high-level document is created during the Prepare phase to define the overall testing approach, scope, and objectives for the entire project.

C. Functional Specifications: These are outputs of the Fit-to-Standard/Gap analysis workshops conducted during the Explore phase and serve as input for the build activities in the Realize phase.
