We performed a comparison between Apache JMeter and OpenText UFT One 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."User-friendly and open source."
"It's very easy to install, and it's very easy to code and develop the script."
"JMeter lets us generate virtual users and T-load, per our requirements. It's easy to configure and adjusting the virtual users according to the DPS we want to achieve."
"The most valuable feature of Apache JMeter is its popularity. It is the best open-source tool with all the features needed."
"I appreciate JMeter's simplicity and power for performance testing."
"The solution has good transition controllers and distributed testing."
"We are using this for performance testing and some automation."
"We use Apache JMeter for load testing, where we provide the throughput time."
"The solution is easy to integrate with other platforms."
"Micro Focus UFT One gives us integration capabilities with both API and GUI components. I like the user interface. It doesn't require that much skill to use and has automatic settings, which is useful for users who don't know what to select. It also has dark and light themes."
"I find UFT One to be very good for thick clients, which are non-browser applications."
"UFT is very strongly built. It's widely used, so there's a lot of support."
"The production and the efficiency of making your test cases can be very high."
"The most valuable features for us are the GUI, the easy identification of objects, and folder structure creation."
"It is very simple to use, and the scripting language is even easier."
"The scalability of Micro Focus UFT One is good."
"Until now, JMeter is not supporting most of the protocols."
"Report generation needs to be improved. It is quite difficult to get to."
"Currently, the integration pipeline is implemented by using Jenkins or a similar tool platform. These are continuous integration tools. As far as I know, integration is done by using custom scripts. It would be good if the integration with a continuous integration pipeline, like Jenkins or Hudson, can be done out of the box without using a script."
"There could be improvements in terms of memory utilization. We are going to migrate away from JMeter in the near future."
"It's not easy to get the data from one place or to do customizations."
"The only thing is the learning curve. It's high."
"It should be easier to combine multiple scripts. If you have multiple scripts, you need to write a new script to combine those scripts. The virtual user generator is slow."
"The interface could be made more user-friendly."
"Scripting has become more complex from a maintenance standpoint to support additional browsers."
"I would like Micro Focus to provide more information on their portal about their newer products. The information about UFT One was outdated. The image recognition features could also be better."
"Sometimes UFT can take a while to open and sometimes will run slower than expected."
"Object identification has room for improvement, to make it more efficient."
"Needs to improve the integration with the CI/CD pipeline (VSTS and report generation)."
"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 of the drawbacks is that mobile performance testing is in need of improvement."
"One area for improvement is its occasional slowness."
