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."This solution is easier to use than any other tool in the market; there is not even a requirement to learn a lot of scripting in order to use it."
"The ease of use is the solution's most valuable feature. Also, the ability to easily create test cases is also very good. It's easy to just ramp up on the solution."
"JMeter is a free tool with a large user population, which comes in handy because we have a vast knowledge base to tap into when needed. It's also easier to hire consultants who know JMeter."
"User-friendly and open source."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it is free."
"A lot of things are valuable. It is free. It has a lot of features, such as report generation and integration with CI/CD, which makes it very competitive with the other paid solutions available in the market. It is a good solution."
"The performance of the solution is excellent."
"The solution has good transition controllers and distributed testing."
"Has improved our organization by allowing us to obtain fast, detailed information about the behavior of our products and to supply this to the customer, enabling us to work together without the need for special programming knowledge."
"The shared repositories can be used throughout all testing which makes jobs easier."
"The most valuable features for us are the GUI, the easy identification of objects, and folder structure creation."
"We have used it for the web and Windows-based applications. It is very productive in terms of execution."
"It is very simple to use, and the scripting language is even easier."
"Object Repository Technology, which is a good mean to identify graphical components of the applications under test."
"It's easy to use for beginners and non-technical people."
"The solution is easy to integrate with other platforms."
"Report generation needs to be improved. It is quite difficult to get to."
"The solution's setup could be easier and security could be improved to minimize vulnerabilities."
"The solution needs to improve reporting. Currently, there is not enough automation involved with the feature. For example, there should be an automatic way of saving reports."
"Apache JMeter could be a more user-friendly product from the end user's perspective."
"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 UI of the solution needs to be better. The UI takes up a lot of our bandwidth."
"The reporting section of the solution can be better."
"In Micro Focus LoadRunner we can go from the UI and we can configure it. There is no such feature in Apache JMeter. There should be UI-based recording history or logs."
"The speed could be improved because a large test suite takes some time to execute."
"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."
"There is a lot of room for improvement when it comes to friction-free continuous testing across the software life cycle, as a local installation is required to run UFT."
"We'd like it to have less scripting."
"I am not sure if they have a vision of how they want to position the leads in the market, because if you look at Tosca, Tosca is one of the automation tools that have a strategy, and it recently updated its strategy with SAP. They are positioning them as a type of continuous testing automation tool. And if you notice Worksoft, particularly the one tool for your enterprise application, your Worksoft is positioning. I am not sure if Micro Focus UFT has a solid strategy in place. They must differentiate themselves so that people recognize Micro Focus UFT for that reason."
"Needs to improve the integration with the CI/CD pipeline (VSTS and report generation)."
"One of the drawbacks is that mobile performance testing is in need of improvement."
"They need to reduce the licensing cost. There's pushback from customers because of the cost."
