Find out what your peers are saying about OpenText, IDERA, Microsoft and others in Test Management Tools."The initial setup was not complex and the product itself is very easy to configure and use."
"It is easy for business users to use who are not familiar with testing tools."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to copy the scenarios and as we do a rollout we can efficiently complete test three and put it somewhere else under a new subsidiary."
"Provides better monitoring for testing campaigns and business process testing."
"Test migration from HPE are done automatically. We can extract our tests from HPE, and they convert it into the Panaya format."
"The test repository to follow the test progress is most valuable because we can easily create and manage a huge number of test scripts. We can copy and paste, replicate, and drag and drop many tests scripts. We can create test scripts en masse. When you have a high volume of tests, the tool is quite useful. It works well when you want to manage a lot of tests, such as you have 1,000 or more test scripts."
"Basically, the capacity to construct various products is something I find handy."
"As far as queries are concerned, creating, grading, or customizing the queries as a primary requirement is very easy to do."
"The most valuable feature of TFS is the central repository, and you can see what changes other developers did from which branch."
"The most valuable feature is integration, particularly if you have a .NET application."
"The most valuable features of TFS are bug reporting and its high performance."
"The API for managing TFS programmatically is very powerful, you can listen on work items changes by TFS events."
"Build definitions and releases within the product. allow us to put our latest applications in the field."
"Microsoft's technical team is supportive."
"They provide options for custom fields or tabs, but customization of workflows would be great."
"Support is reactive and in English only."
"The setup of Panaya Recorder is a bit complex. Panaya is a SaaS application, but you need to install some components on your computer. You need to set up your computer to allow Panaya Recorder to work. There are five or six things to do each time you install Panaya for any user. If you miss something, Panaya Recorder doesn't work. So, it is complex to install."
"It would be nice to be able to test offline. What I mean by that is today most of the time things are in the cloud, but sometimes when we are in factories and we do not have network access and we should be able to download a test script into our PCs and do the test offline. Once that is complete we can re-upload it when we have a network connection."
"As an end-user, I expect the solution's performance to be faster while staying as stable as possible."
"This solution is quite old and it is already being bundled as Azure DevOps Server."
"Since it is Microsoft, it is technology agnostic, thus it does not really fit into various different technologies in the organization."
"The solution should have better dashboards."
"Overall, I think it would be useful to have something similar where Microsoft comes up with supporting concepts of scaling Agile in TFS so that clients don't have to look for a separate tool."
"TFS's CI/CD, project pipelines, and management development could be improved."
"The test management interface is not very handy."
"Merging branches is definitely one of the more challenging aspects for people new to TFS."
