Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Katalon Studio and others in Regression Testing Tools."This solution is SaaS based so we can utilize cloud technology, which is less time consuming and saves a lot of of money."
"The product supports a wide variety of technology compared to any other tool."
"The reports are very relevant to the customers’ expectations."
"It is feature-rich. It supports most protocols, which is important because I am in charge of a team at the bank, and we do performance testing for all kinds of different applications. We have tons of them. We even do video streams."
"It's fast, easy to use, has a user-friendly UI, and you can split users."
"One of LoadRunner's standout features is its extensive support for various TechStacks and protocols."
"The beauty of LoadRunner Cloud is that we can use the load generator that is hosted by us on-premises, and we also have the option to use their hosted load generator. If it is a public-hosted application, we can also use their public-hosted load generator, but in our case, all our applications are hosted in our data center, so we are using the on-premise load generator. We have the option to deploy those load generators as we want."
"The most valuable feature is that you can create an infrastructure on-demand and do performance testing with it."
"One notable feature is its ability to handle negative XPath healing processes. If one XPath fails, Tosca can utilize backup XPaths to ensure test cases do not fail due to locator issues, thereby focusing on identifying application-side issues, which is the ultimate goal."
"The initial setup isn't too difficult."
"Object Identification Wizard."
"The most valuable features of Tricentis Tosca are the Salesforce scanning. There are two scanning for Salesforce applications. There is Salesforce scanning and normal application scanning. Object identification has been really useful in Tricentis Tosca."
"The low code is the best feature."
"With one click, it will scan all the elements on the screen, so that the user can select the required elements for automation tests."
"Image recognition: It has allowed us to automate a GUI section of our product which involves drawing different topologies."
"The automation engine is very strong, and it is very competitive in the market in terms of features. They develop a lot of features."
"Sometimes, you are utilizing one of the low generators, then all of a sudden if you discontinue from one project, it actually deletes the entire low generator."
"I'd like to see more ability to dive more deeply into the configuration."
"The product must provide agents to monitor servers."
"It should have a feature to report with a 99.9 percentile success rate."
"The support team provides delayed responses."
"Reporting and analysis need improvement. Compared to the old school LoadRunner Windows application, the reporting and analysis are mediocre in LoadRunner Cloud."
"There is a steep learning curve for the product, too."
"One area of improvement in the software's support is the replaying of captured data within the development environment. It would be beneficial if the replay feature could accurately mimic what the actual application is doing for better analysis and testing."
"Setup wasn't that straightforward; it was more complex. It all depends on the environment, because there were a lot of errors on our applications. Therefore, it wasn't an easy setup for us."
"I would like a better user interface."
"First, Tricentis could improve Tosca's Linux scripting. We can automate Linux scripting, but there are a few commands that Tosca doesn't support. DVS support and the object identification mechanism could also be better."
"The solution is expensive."
"A disadvantage of Tricentis Tosca is that you have to customize it according to your need, during the early stages of the software, particularly during upstream testing, before system and unit testing."
"I have found that some of the functions could be missed in the solution for new users. They are not obviously present."
"What needs to be improved in Tricentis Tosca is its centralized repository mechanism because it's not as flexible. The repository in the solution where you store the data and the script for test automation is quite an old-fashioned mechanism that could be improved."
"I would like to see more implementation of AI on the self-healing aspect. That would be like the next step."
