DeleteLocalTestClass

Clears the local test classes include of a named ABAP class under class lock and optionally activates the parent class after deletion.

Instructions

Clears the local test classes include of the ABAP class named by class_name. The include is cleared under the class lock; with activate_on_delete the class is activated. Runs outside batch mode.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden and does disclose meaningful behavior: the include is cleared under the class lock, activate_on_delete triggers a class activation as a side effect, and the tool is excluded from batch mode. It does not say whether the deletion is reversible, what transport behavior applies, or what a success response contains.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Three short sentences with zero waste. The action and target lead, followed by locking/activation behavior and the batch-mode constraint.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a four-parameter mutation tool with no output schema and full schema coverage, the description supplies the critical behavioral facts (lock scope, activation side effect, batch restriction). The main remaining gap is the result of the call and any transport implications.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all four parameters, making 3 the baseline. The description adds a little value by tying activate_on_delete to an actual activation side effect, but says nothing about class_name semantics, transport_request, or detail beyond what the schema states.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description names a specific verb and resource: clearing the local test class include of a named ABAP class. That is far more precise than the bare name and distinguishes it from siblings like DeleteLocalTypes, DeleteLocalMacros, and DeleteClass. It stops short of explicitly saying how it differs from DeleteClass (which removes the whole class).

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

"Runs outside batch mode" gives one operating constraint, but there is no explicit when-to-use/when-not guidance or reference to alternatives such as UpdateLocalTestClass or DeleteLocalTypes. The intended use is strongly implied by the name and description rather than stated.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
