Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Katalon Studio and others in Regression Testing Tools."The most valuable feature is that this is the first connected intelligence all-in-one platform."
"The initial setup of HeadSpin was very easy and user-friendly. It was easy to configure and write a script."
"The technical support is really helpful because we can set up direct calls with them if we want to. We can use Zoom or Google Meet to interact with them directly, and if there is an issue in our system, they will help us by reproducing the issue in their machines and trying to figure out a solution. The support is really smooth, and we like that they're very supportive."
"The most valuable feature of HeadSpin it's the integration with other solutions. It is great. I can search for an element or do a quick debugging on the application right on HeadSpin. It's very useful."
"The most valuable features of the product are the performance parameters it gives us."
"It has an interesting feature called AV box testing. A lot of companies that are in the OTT segment don't really understand what their streaming is like. They can't test for streaming quality. There are restrictions where you cannot simulate live streaming. For example, on Netflix, you can't simulate how a movie is being streamed on a remote device. That's why HeadSpin has got this AV box testing feature. It is a patented feature. They send an AV box to your location, and you can test live streaming, which is something that no other company does."
"I personally like the 'Object Spy' feature of this tool. It makes it easy to find an element on the web page."
"User-friendly and a good solution."
"It supports multiple easy-to-learn languages."
"I like the feature where you can define a model that represents your website and then reuse the components from the model. It makes creating more test cases easy."
"The solution is easy to learn."
"The most valuable features of Katalon Studio are its user-friendliness and the AI smart healing capabilities."
"The most valuable feature is its automation security capabilities."
"It is a good tool and provides all the essential features for our business requirements."
"Sometimes, devices go offline and some features are not functioning on some devices, specifically on iOS."
"They should automate their onboarding. A lot of things are still manual. They can create a video assistant or something like that to completely automate the entire process."
"Support and pricing could be improved."
"HeadSpin could improve on the user interface because it is very poor. The checks that are done on the iOS devices are very difficult, but for Android, it runs great. For all iOS devices, the user interface and how it interacts with the device are very poor."
"If you want to do some testing or check the devices manually or check the application in a particular device manually, it is really laggy. That's a disappointment because sometimes we would like to do manual testing when our local devices are not available."
"HeadSpin needs to improve the hardware. With the mobile, the battery life reduces and must be continuously charged."
"It is difficult to identify elements on websites that use Angular or ReactJS because they don't have an option to view source code."
"Object Spy is brittle. When I try to capture objects, I have to proceed multiple times before it works."
"The price of the solution is a bit high. It's one of the reasons we decided not to continue using the product."
"It would be helpful if they can integrate a feature for performance testing."
"The integration process with Jira should be enhanced and facilitated."
"The free version of the solution is not user friendly at all."
"It should start working on Silverlight automation."
"It seems to lack a few requirements that a typical customer would want. Compared to other solutions, this product is lacking."
