[devanshjainms]

This pull request introduces several improvements and updates across documentation, workflow configuration, and the main test automation script to enhance SAP high availability testing and validation. The most significant changes include expanded OS and cluster configuration support, new documentation for offline validation, improved credential management, and refactoring of the main test script for better usability and extensibility.

Documentation Improvements:

• Added support for Azure Shared Disks (ASD) as a new cluster type in both SAP Central Services and SAP HANA configurations, and updated documentation to reflect support for additional operating systems (SLES 15 SP4/SP6) for the management server. [1] [2]
• Introduced a new OFFLINE_VALIDATION.md guide detailing how to perform offline validation of SAP HANA and Central Services clusters using previously collected CIB XML files, including setup instructions, directory structure, and usage examples.
• Expanded credential management documentation to cover both local and Azure Key Vault-based authentication, clarifying required setup and file handling for each method.

Test Automation Script Enhancements (scripts/sap_automation_qa.sh):

• Refactored script initialization for better portability and error handling, including improved detection of the script and project directories, sourcing of utility functions, and robust activation of the Python virtual environment.
• Added command-line argument parsing for new options such as offline mode, test group/case filtering, and extra variables, along with an extended usage/help message describing available test cases and options.
• Introduced logic to select the appropriate Ansible playbook based on test type and offline mode, and added a function to generate filtered test configurations as JSON for more targeted test execution. [1] [2]

Workflow Configuration Updates:

• Updated all references to github/codeql-action in GitHub workflow files (.github/workflows/codeql.yml, ossf-scoreboard.yml, trivy.yml) to use version v3.28.20 for improved security and compatibility. [1] [2] [3]

These changes collectively improve the flexibility, maintainability, and clarity of the SAP automation QA framework, making it easier to validate high availability configurations both online and offline, and to run targeted test scenarios across supported platforms.
