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."A lot of things are valuable. It is free. It has a lot of features, such as report generation and integration with CI/CD, which makes it very competitive with the other paid solutions available in the market. It is a good solution."
"Apache JMeter is stable."
"I like the fact that JMeter integrates well with other tools."
"It's a free tool."
"The solution helps by detecting bottlenecks."
"The solution is scalable."
"It is scalable. You can scale up to 1,000 users in JMeter. If you can put up four slave servers, you can easily ramp up to 1,000 users."
"It's open source, so I like that about the product. And there's a lot of community support for it."
"UFT is very strongly built. It's widely used, so there's a lot of support."
"It is a stable solution."
"It offers a wide range of testing."
"Has improved our organization by allowing us to obtain fast, detailed information about the behavior of our products and to supply this to the customer, enabling us to work together without the need for special programming knowledge."
"The most valuable feature for me is that it works on multiple platforms and technologies."
"The stop automation is a great feature."
"The shared repositories can be used throughout all testing which makes jobs easier."
"It is very simple to use, and the scripting language is even easier."
"Running JMeter in GUI mode uses a lot of memory, which means we need to switch to a non-GUI mode when using a heavy load."
"Until now, JMeter is not supporting most of the protocols."
"JMeter's reporting is extremely rudimentary. The fundamental reporting mechanisms need to be drastically improved. It doesn't utilize an automatic session management mechanism or methods other tools use like parsing cookies and variables. Everything needs to be done manually. There's no automation."
"The solution needs more metrics for reporting."
"Report generation needs to be improved. It is quite difficult to get to."
"There is some work to be done with the integration."
"They should improve the solution on its UI front."
"The solution needs to improve reporting. Currently, there is not enough automation involved with the feature. For example, there should be an automatic way of saving reports."
"It could work with more browsers other than Internet Explorer, and could better handle new things like Ext JS."
"UFT has a recording feature. They could make the recording feature window bigger for whatever activities that I am recording. It would improve the user experience if they could create a separate floating panel (or have it automatically show on the side) once the recording starts."
"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."
"Sometimes UFT can take a while to open and sometimes will run slower than expected."
"One thing that confused me, and now just mildly irritates me, is that we migrated from QuickTest Pro to HP UFT, Unified Functional Test. After we did the migration, it turned out that we didn't really have Unified Functional Test at all."
"It should consume less CPU, and the licensing cost could be lower."
"The solution is expensive."
"It doesn't support Telerik UI controls and we are currently looking for a patch for this."
