"Object Identification Wizard."
"The technical support is good, we were satisfied."
"The product enables codeless automation."
"The most valuable feature is being able to create a test case by recording some scenarios and then leasing that task case to other scenarios."
"The most valuable features of Tricentis Tosca are all the test automation functionality. It is a full-scale automation tool."

"Automation is difficult in JMeter."
"The tool should be made a bit more robust, and better support should be made available."
"We would like some reporting and analysis tools to be added to this solution."
"Its reporting could be improved. There should be a better visual representation. That would be helpful for easy consumption of the reports."
"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."

"In terms of setup, it could be nicer, to be honest. Sometimes, I get a little bit lost."
"The only thing is the learning curve. It's high."
"Making it more stable would be good because we get around 90% stability."

"I think the downside would be licensing costs which are very high."
"I would like a better user interface."
"They need to improve on the reports after the execution of automation tests, since all the current organizations are looking for detailed graphical reports."
"Not being able to mask test data in relation to testing data management, in my opinion, is also a limitation."
"ScratchBook execution needs to be improved as Tosca crashes multiple times."
"More and more artificial intelligence (AI) is coming in. So, some amount of AI to create natural language processing (NLP)-based test cases and manage defects would be very helpful. This is because the technologies have evolved in the last five to six months, so there is a potential opportunity there."
