We performed a comparison between Apache JMeter and Tricentis Tosca 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."The solution is scalable."
"It's stable and reliable."
"The most valuable feature for us is the available information on the forums and to be able to discuss and get answers from the people that are involved in using this tool."
"It's very easy to install, and it's very easy to code and develop the script."
"When there's a high number of TPS I can achieve more transactions per seconds given the hyper-limitations."
"The most valuable feature in JMeter is the Thread Group, which helps us to see whether the performance is good."
"JMeter is user-friendly, and that's a notable advantage of JVTech. It's straightforward and easy to use, unlike some other load testing tools, making it very easy to understand."
"The solution offers a lot of plug-ins and a huge continuously developing community that is regularly offering new features and plug-ins."
"The most valuable features of Tricentis Tosca are the ease of use, you do not need to program if you do not want to."
"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."
"We have to automate thousands of test cases and complete end-to-end SAP on business processes. To manually execute these tasks, it would take us at least two months. By automating these tasks using Tosca, now it takes five to 10 days maximum. Tricentis Tosca is a codeless or scriptless automation tool."
"Object Identification Wizard."
"The most valuable features of Tricentis Tosca are all the test automation functionality. It is a full-scale automation tool."
"Tricentis Tosca is a really cool tool that you don't have to be technical to use it. Additionally, the solution is easy to use. The modules, libraries, and reusable are in an efficient way to update all the tests. I find it spot on with that. We also started using the design which we switched from Excel. The design was superior to Excel."
"Good use in Agile workshops, where the person needs to conceptualize the tests before the developer provides the complete application interface."
"The scalability is a valuable feature of Tricentis Tosca."
"In this tool, automation in general is almost non-existent. Everything is done manually."
"Until now, JMeter is not supporting most of the protocols."
"Report generation needs to be improved. It is quite difficult to get to."
"There is some work to be done with the integration."
"Apache JMeter could use improvement in reporting. Currently, it isn't easy to generate reports in PDF format. While receiving reports in PDF format is possible, it requires a lot of customization. Additionally, when comparing the load test to others solutions it could improve."
"The reporting is not very good."
"In terms of setup, it could be nicer, to be honest. Sometimes, I get a little bit lost."
"The UI could be better."
"It can be quite expensive."
"The UI does not have the option of automating the scroll bars."
"Tricentis Tosca’s technical support could be improved."
"I have found that some of the functions could be missed in the solution for new users. They are not obviously present."
"Running the regression – if multiple lists are executed at once or if a list contains 200+ tests, it’s a pain to stop the execution."
"Tricentis Tosca could improve on its mobile automation solution."
"The document object model or some aspects of it has a bit of a learning curve."
"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."
