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."It is easy to set up."
"It is scalable. You can scale up to 1,000 users in JMeter. If you can put up four slave servers, you can easily ramp up to 1,000 users."
"Scripting with the solution is good."
"The thread groups, samplers, and listeners, which are all determined by the script's requirements, are the most valuable features of this solution."
"We like that Apache JMeter has different features and different plugins and that they are free of charge."
"To me, what's most valuable in Apache JMeter is that it's a lightweight tool for application testing. It's the best load-testing tool for my company because Apache JMeter simulates your application during testing. Apache JMeter also creates threads with good server utilization. Apache JMeter allows you to focus on analyzing the situation, looking into measurements, response time, and client-server responses, which I find valuable."
"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 this solution is that it is free."
"The ease of record and playback as well as descriptive programming are the most valuable features of UFT (QTP)."
"The solution has good out-of-the-box protocols."
"Record and Replay to ease onboarding of new users."
"The stop automation is a great feature."
"It's not only web-based but also for backend applications; you can also do the integration of the applications."
"It's easy to use for beginners and non-technical people."
"The production and the efficiency of making your test cases can be very high."
"The solution is easy to integrate with other platforms."
"Considering the kinds of tests we are performing here, where we launch several tests at the same time as a batch request, JMeter is not the best tool for the job. Those kinds of things could be done easily with other tools, like T6."
"The initial setup is complex and needs to be upgraded."
"The interface could be made more user-friendly."
"Automation is difficult in JMeter."
"The solution needs more metrics for reporting."
"The UI of the solution needs to be better. The UI takes up a lot of our bandwidth."
"Modeling a test is difficult. If you don't have much knowledge, you won't be able to do it easily. Testing APIs is also difficult."
"They should improve the solution on its UI front."
"Sometimes it appears that UFT takes a while to open and sometimes will run slower than expected. Also, UFT uses a lot of memory. On this note, if you are running UFT on a virtual server I would add more RAM memory than the minimum requirements especially when using multiple add-ins. HP is pretty good about coming out with new patches to fix known issues and it pays for the user to check for new patches and updates on a regular basis."
"The overall design needs an entire overhaul. We prefer software designed to ensure the package isn't too loaded."
"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."
"Jumping to functions is supported from any Action/BPT Component code, but not from inside a function library where the target function exists in another library file. Workaround: Select search entire project for the function."
"I'd like to see test case-related reports included in the solution."
"The solution is expensive."
"It doesn't support Telerik UI controls and we are currently looking for a patch for this."
"Needs to improve the integration with the CI/CD pipeline (VSTS and report generation)."
