We performed a comparison between Eggplant Test and Katalon Studio based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Test Automation Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The features that we like the most are the developer interface and the ability to quickly develop and deploy tests."
"Everything is happening on the layout or display that is used by the user. Eggplant prompts processes, like 'click here,' or 'look for this image.' Eggplant makes it possible for QA people and BAs, working in the actual display, to check if the software is providing the right images, the right text, and the right results. They don't have to go inside the code or to the TCP/IP layer. Everything is happening at the highest level."
"It provides very strong cross-platform support."
"DAI's newest release allows us to test via scripts rather than models, because we have done 95 percent of our development in functional, not through modeling. I am really happy that then we can use the controller to run scripts rather than having to translate things to models. There are lots of options."
"The main feature of Eggplant Test is that it can do fully automated web testing and app testing."
"Good text reading ability."
"We are able to now automate tests, which so far have been manual."
"The most valuable features would be the image recognition and the OCR."
"We are now performing automated testing in 15 minutes, which were previously taking a long time when doing it manually."
"Smart Wait and XPath healing are valuable features."
"The automation is very fast and you don't need to be overly proficient in coding."
"It has been good so far for API testing on Mac. It is not that hard to learn and use. There is so much support out there, so if anyone wants to start using it, there is enough help."
"I rate Katalon Studio's scalability a four out of five."
"The most valuable feature is its automation security capabilities."
"I personally like the 'Object Spy' feature of this tool. It makes it easy to find an element on the web page."
"We can write code in Java and it is easy to link to other JARs that we find on the internet, which is very handy."
"The reporting function is a bit shallow. The solution does not offer very comprehensive reporting in terms of your test results. The reporting time and the logs are very high level as well. These areas need improvement."
"If one area could be improved, it would be some of their documentation. In particular, some of their online help and user support documentation is a little bit out of date and could be revised and updated on a more frequent basis. Other than that, I haven't really found any issues or problems."
"There was no free trial in it."
"A step forward would be to have event support, because it is more or less linear at the moment."
"Its performance and stability could be better."
"It has low productivity."
"In terms of additional features, it would be helpful to have one package for all testing. You have the manager, the AI, then you have functional, and about 10 different packages for installing."
"They need to update the Linux. I think it's kind of an outdated Java Swing application."
"It would be helpful if they can integrate a feature for performance testing."
"We would like to see improved integration with various reporting tools; this would make our testing data more complete."
"Object Spy is brittle. When I try to capture objects, I have to proceed multiple times before it works."
"We have had some issues when it comes to stability, which is something that needs to be improved."
"The integration process with Jira should be enhanced and facilitated."
"It seems to lack a few requirements that a typical customer would want. Compared to other solutions, this product is lacking."
"Katalon Studio could improve having visual testing, but I think they're launching that feature very soon. We would like to see an increase in the usage of AI."
"During parallel execution, some reports are randomly switched."
