We performed a comparison between OpenText LoadRunner Cloud and Tricentis Tosca based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Katalon Studio and others in Regression Testing Tools."OpenText LoadRunner Cloud eliminates the need for our own testing infrastructure when running tests."
"The record and playback feature is the most valuable feature. It's all driven by the script, so it's a script-based tool where the background tracing starts. Java's background process does a lot of tracing. The process starts in the background. It sees what peaks of volumes that the process can handle. It's easy to use because it's script based, record, and playback. I"
"The most valuable feature is that you can create an infrastructure on-demand and do performance testing with it."
"Keeping up with DevOps, thus the best feature of StormRunner is that we don't have to build and maintain infrastructure anymore."
"It's a fast product, so you don't have much trouble in terms of maintenance overhead. You don't want to just look into configuring load generators, look for upgrades, and end up having that take up a lot of your time. With this solution, you just log in and you start using it. This means that there is a huge benefit in terms of the overhead of maintaining the infrastructure and the maintenance effort."
"The most valuable feature is that we do not have to accommodate the load-testing infrastructure in our own data center."
"The usability and ability to integrate with other solutions is quite good. When I use it in on Azure, then Red Hat is the most likely solution I use. When I use AWS, then I tend to use Lambda functions. In either case, it works well and you can use it either way."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"It has helped teams within our organization become more aware of the testing requirements in terms of risk and priority."
"The Model-Based Test Automation is the most valuable feature, where you can create reusable components. Even though we are using a scriptless automation tool, there still needs to be an understanding of how to create reusable components and how to keep refactoring and how to keep regression, the test scripts, at an okay level. We are coupling Tosca with some other risk-based testing tools, as well, but automation is primarily what we're using Tosca for, the scriptless, model-based technology which is driving automation for us."
"Very user-friendly and the low code automation is really helpful."
"Multiple scanning engines to automate many different applications."
"The model-based scriptless automation is the most valuable feature because it needs less maintenance as compared to script-based automation."
"The scalability is a valuable feature of Tricentis Tosca."
"It's been very helpful to have connectivity with mobile. The tool also identifies some of the actual changes from the recordings on the actual testing suite. That is something that I really like."
"We have multiple applications, and it supports parallel execution. It has mobile automation."
"It doesn't provide custom reports. You can only use the default reports which contain irrelevant data or is missing data that we need."
"We encounter hurdles while running the professional version for on-premise setup."
"We are trying to put it into a complete CI/CD pipeline, but there are still some challenges when you try to run it through different protocols. The challenges are around how you can containerize applications. There are some limitations to some protocols, such as desktop. And when it comes to database testing, there are some things that we can't do through CI/CD."
"I would like for there to be better integration with other tools so that when you do load testing you can also do a security check."
"We did have some challenges with the initial implementation."
"In terms of new features, they can natively integrate with Chaos engineering tools such as Chaos Monkey and AWS FIS. With LoadRunner, we can generate load, and if Chaos tools are also supported natively, it will help to get everything together."
"An area for improvement is analytics on why response times are slow from certain countries."
"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."
"It requires some coding customization that requires expertise."
"They can make it more stable. I have used this tool for SAP applications. They have an alliance with SAP, and it mostly worked fine, but there were a few glitches. However, we got the required support from the Tricentis team. They are coming up with their new versions and upgrades with respect to how the Tricentis systems as cloud applications are updated, and it would be good if they have a robust accelerator pack."
"The support we received from Tricentis Tosca was good, but it can improve."
"They need to improve on the reports after the execution of automation tests, since all the current organizations are looking for detailed graphical reports."
"It needs better integration with JIRA."
"There should be ease of data manipulation within automation test cases."
"Tricentis Tosca currently does not support any mobile testing and can be improved."
"While the initial setup was straightforward, we required assistance with the configuration to ensure that everything was done correctly."
