Find out in this report how the two Regression Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."What I like most about Galen Framework are its advantages, particularly its spec language and the spec file feature."
"The most valuable feature of Katalon Studio is the ease of use of the solution."
"It has been good so far for API testing on Mac. It is not that hard to learn and use. There is so much support out there, so if anyone wants to start using it, there is enough help."
"It provides us daily feedback on the status (failing/working) of the core features of our websites."
"The product provides ease of automation for the cloud."
"I personally like the 'Object Spy' feature of this tool. It makes it easy to find an element on the web page."
"The most valuable features of Katalon Studio are its user-friendliness and the AI smart healing capabilities."
"The scalability of the product is good."
"The most valuable feature of Katalon Studio is that everything can be managed from one platform."
"There don't seem to be functions available for automatically generating Galen values based on the specifications in the spec file, and this could be a potential improvement for Galen Framework."
"Currently, I'm the only one who can use it because I have a Mac. It is giving a hard time to my team members who are on Linux. My team members are using Linux, and Katalon doesn't support Linux very well. It keeps on crashing. It crashes and shuts down almost every time they save their work, so they are not able to use it. It should have good support for Linux. We don't know what the problem is. If the Katalon team can pick up this issue, it will be very helpful."
"The price of the solution is a bit high. It's one of the reasons we decided not to continue using the product."
"They need to work on documentation to make it more centralized and easier to find what you are looking for."
"I've seen that our clients are not truly aware of the power behind Katalon."
"Object Spy is brittle. When I try to capture objects, I have to proceed multiple times before it works."
"Katalon Studio should improve its usability, it still needs some improvement where users can easily use it to build their automation suite. It requires some initial work to set it up. There should be more keywords in the library to limit the coding requirements, this will allow a non-technical person easily start using it, which would be better."
"There is not much support offered for the free version, which is something that could be improved."
"The Object Spy is rather frustrating to work with, so I tend not to use it."
