Find out what your peers are saying about OpenText, Microsoft, IDERA and others in Test Management Tools."We were able to add a step-by-step procedure for someone to follow to assist in testing."
"The features of this product most valuable to me were the test case management and the visual status, by which it was displayed."
"The user-friendly features are the most valuable. For example, migration of requirements and migration of test cases and the creation of traceability. You have various reports that you need. The plug-ins that are available to connect with the other tools."
"The reporting functionality helps vendors and technical resources identify bugs and issues that need to be addressed. The simple dashboard-style home page makes training end-user testers simple and straightforward. The actual testing UI is VERY straightforward and very intuitive for the end-users that test the system since very often we pull from business and operational users to help test new systems."
"Inflectra SpiraTest has a lot of functionality, which is good."
"The ability to reuse test cases already used across projects is the most valuable feature of this solution. We don't need to create new ones."
"I found Inflectra SpiraTest intuitive enough. It's also easy to learn, so this is what I like about it."
"This solution works with other Microsoft solutions pretty easily. It was easy to integrate everything into all the other tools that we were using. It integrates very seamlessly."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"This is an all-in-one, one-stop shop, nothing comes close."
"I think the most usable thing is that you can follow the whole progress of the development process. This makes it very useful for us."
"I found the Kanban board to be the most useful for my needs."
"The pricing seems to be reasonable."
"Azure enables us to create a staging environment through to a production environment in an easier way and then get the code and run that."
"It is a cloud-based system. So, it is stable and scalable."
"The UI for managing test cases, test sets, test runs could be a little more integrated, currently, these feel disjointed at times and confusing. Also, the test steps page needs to display the test steps closer to the top of the UI so as to not have to scroll down to find."
"It should develop integration with JIRA. We have some complexities which caused us not to decide to integrate it with our JIRA, like synchronous data."
"Migrating is not very easy. It depends on the organization, how efficient and effective the decision-making process is. The plug-ins should be easier and more integrated rather than the user trying to integrate the tools which are more popular, like Jira et al."
"The user interface is slightly complicated and not very consistent. It could be more user friendly."
"Being able to add scripting for testing can and does save a lot of time. When you are able to just ‘run’ a test case rather than manually add it and run it."
"Two areas that can stand improvement: integration with third party products and making it more intuitive."
"The folder organization in Inflectra SpiraTest could be better, though I cannot comment whether that is structure-related. Most of what I need would probably be in the tool, but as a test manager, I need to be able to create dashboards and reports easily."
"The dashboards need bigger with better extensions and layouts. There isn't a workflow related to the statuses on the dashboard. It only lists the statuses. You can have one started, and once done, but everything in between is only in progress and could be in any order you want, it lacks flow."
"I would like to see DevOps have the ability to give us something with a compatibility or traceability matrix."
"With an ecosystem that has been up and running for some time, you won't have the full-flexibility that you would have with a new ecosystem."
"There are certain areas in Azure DevOps that are better in other products."
"The solution is generally stable but not entirely issue-free."
"The optimization feature in Microsoft Azure DevOps needs improvement. Control over multiple projects could also be improved."
"Something that could be improved is the initial setup with the integration of ReadyAPI."
"Being more technology-agnostic through ease of integration would be beneficial."
