Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Katalon Studio and others in Regression Testing Tools."It's fast, easy to use, has a user-friendly UI, and you can split users."
"The most valuable feature is that you can create an infrastructure on-demand and do performance testing with it."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to configure browser settings for different operating systems and on different versions without the need to install every single version on each machine and to manage them."
"The TruClient feature is the most valuable for us. An application with testing can only be scripted using TruClient, so it's part web-based, but it also has its own protocol combined with HTTP and HTML. So many other tools do not recognize this specific proprietary protocol. Using TruClient, we can still create scripts that cover everything that we need to cover."
"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 most valuable feature is having load generators in countries where we don’t have access to them."
"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 initial setup isn't too difficult."
"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."
"Very user-friendly and the low code automation is really helpful."
"Multiple scanning engines to automate many different applications."
"It has helped teams within our organization become more aware of the testing requirements in terms of risk and priority."
"The most valuable features of Tricentis Tosca are the ease of use, you do not need to program if you do not want to."
"This solution is very easy to learn and any non-programmer or manual tester, with little experience in automation, can pick it up quite easily."
"I would rate the scalability a nine out of ten. We have enterprise-level customers."
"CI/CD integration could be a little bit better. When there's a test and if you see that there are high response times in the test itself, it would be great to be able to send an alert. It would give a heads-up to the architect community or ops community."
"The product must provide agents to monitor servers."
"One area for improvement in LoadRunner Cloud, especially for agile models, is its limited support for functional testing alongside its robust non-functional testing capabilities."
"It doesn't provide custom reports. You can only use the default reports which contain irrelevant data or is missing data that we need."
"Its scripting features need improvement."
"An area for improvement is analytics on why response times are slow from certain countries."
"Their documentation is not technical enough for us. We would like to have much deeper technical documentation so that we can self-serve without constantly having to go back to them and ask."
"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."
"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."
"The UI does not have the option of automating the scroll bars."
"Not being able to mask test data in relation to testing data management, in my opinion, is also a limitation."
"The product needs to improve its pricing. It also needs to improve the infrastructure and DEX agent setup."
"While the initial setup was straightforward, we required assistance with the configuration to ensure that everything was done correctly."
"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."
"The solution is expensive."
"The tool lags in client-based applications. We have also encountered issues with the features in integrations."
