We performed a comparison between Apache JMeter and OpenText UFT One based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two API Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We find the ease of use and the reports and graphs available valuable."
"The most valuable features are the integration with Jenkins and the reporting."
"It is open source as well as relatively extendable. It allows us to extend and add additional functionality and features. Its deployment is also very easy."
"It's stable and reliable."
"This solution is easier to use than any other tool in the market; there is not even a requirement to learn a lot of scripting in order to use it."
"The scripting ability is most valuable. It is easy to use. There is a UI, and you can go in there and figure those things out. After you've got a good set of tests, you basically have a scripted document that you can grab and execute in a pipeline. It is pretty quick to set up, and you can scale it and version control it."
"The recording and playback functionality is helpful."
"The solution has good transition controllers and distributed testing."
"Being able to automate different applications makes day-to-day activities a lot easier."
"It offers a wide range of testing."
"The stop automation is a great feature."
"Hidden among the kitchen sink of features is a new Data Generation tool called the Test Combinations Generator."
"With frequent releases, using automation to perform regression testing can save us huge amount of time and resources."
"The most valuable features for us are the GUI, the easy identification of objects, and folder structure creation."
"The high-level security, high standard and compatible SAP are great."
"I find UFT One to be very good for thick clients, which are non-browser applications."
"You really need a technical team in order to really utilize the product."
"If JMeter could provide a web version of editing, that would be good."
"The user interface is a little bit tricky."
"We would like more documentation to be provided for the advanced level features that are available in this solution, in order to improve development."
"The reports in Apache JMeter could improve."
"JMeter is lagging when it comes to GUI performance testing because we need to install some third-party plugins for recording the GUI script, and the performance isn't very reliable."
"They can improve it a little bit in terms of distribution load testing. We struggled with it during the distribution. In terms of reporting, runtime monitoring is not currently included, and it should be included. They can also improve it on the reporting side in terms of the comparison of the reports. They can also focus more on integration with CI/CD. Currently, people are using their own customized tools. It would be nice if Apache can provide some standard tools and procedures for integration with CI/CD tools like DPR. There are some tools, but it would be nice if official standard tools and procedures are available."
"Both scalability and stability could be improved in Apache JMeter."
"[Tech support is] not a 10 because what happens with some of our issues is that we might not get a patch quickly and we have to hold on to an application until we get a proper solution."
"Sometimes, the results' file size can be intense. I wish it was a little more compact."
"They should include an automated feature to load backlog tests."
"We used to run it as a test suite. Micro Focus provides that in terms of a test management tool as ALM, but when we think of integrating with a distributed version control system, like Jenkins, there isn't much integration available. That means we need to make use of external solutions to make it work."
"There is a lot of room for improvement when it comes to friction-free continuous testing across the software life cycle, as a local installation is required to run UFT."
"Micro Focus UFT One could improve by having more maintenance. Every time when we run the solution and develop something, the next time when we run it it doesn't recognize the object. I have to redesign the object again and then run the solution. It's really a headache, it's not consistent."
"The speed could be improved because a large test suite takes some time to execute."
"I'd like to see test case-related reports included in the solution."
