We performed a comparison between OpenText UFT One and Postman based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two API Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Hidden among the kitchen sink of features is a new Data Generation tool called the Test Combinations Generator."
"The most valuable feature of Micro Focus UFT One is you are able to use it with many other technologies. I have not had an instance where the solution was not able to automate or execute automation. I was able to use COBOL to manage some automation."
"Being able to automate different applications makes day-to-day activities a lot easier."
"The inside object repository is nice. We can use that and learn it through the ALM connection. That's a good feature. The reporting and smart identification features are also excellent."
"I like the fact that you can record and play the record of your step scripts, and UFT One creates the steps for you in the code base. After that, you can alter the code, and it's more of a natural language code."
"One advantage of Micro Focus UFT is that it is more compatible with SAP, Desktop ECC SAP, than S/4HANA."
"The solution has good out-of-the-box protocols."
"It is a stable solution."
"The developers put the API in a common workspace which is a nice feature. It makes things much easier and faster to start testing."
"It is nice to have different workspaces. You have your personal workspace, and then you have a team workspace. In general, I like its UI. It is quite cool."
"It is simple, easy to use and a good tool."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The solution provides visibility for PDF reports without needing to install plugins."
"The most valuable features of the solution are that it is easy to use and user-friendly."
"The solution is stable."
"The most valuable feature is the user interface because it provides a clear space for the URL, headers, body, prerequisites, and tests."
"The speed could be improved because a large test suite takes some time to execute."
"Object identification has room for improvement, to make it more efficient."
"We have had some issues with stability, where it crashes sometimes."
"Micro Focus UFT One could improve by having more maintenance. Every time when we run the solution and develop something, the next time when we run it it doesn't recognize the object. I have to redesign the object again and then run the solution. It's really a headache, it's not consistent."
"One area for improvement is its occasional slowness."
"Sometimes, the results' file size can be intense. I wish it was a little more compact."
"They need to reduce the cost because it is pretty high. It's approximately $3,000 per user."
"I'd like to see UFT integrated more with some of the open source tools like Selenium, where web is involved."
"I would like to see improvements in the maintenance of the scripts and their collections. It is really painful that the user cannot drag and drop. It was also painful to create the standard suite of operations for the product. I am not sure if this is improved in the tool’s latest versions. The maintenance of the complex scenarios prompted us to use the solution only for unit testing. In the future, we may switch to the k6 framework."
"We'd like to see some better UI in newer versions."
"There needs to be more flexibility surrounding the testing of SOAP APIs."
"It would be better if we could integrate programming languages like .NET, Java, and JavaScript. It could also be more user-friendly."
"I live in Turkey, so for me, the value of dollar currency is high...Postman can change its pricing policy and decrease the prices for Turkey."
"Postman quality assurance could improve when doing tests."
"I rate the support for Postman a four out of five."
"Integration should be improved with our continuation system because we use Azure DevOps separately."
