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."Very user-friendly and easy to use."
"It's very easy to install, and it's very easy to code and develop the script."
"The most valuable features are the integration with Jenkins and the reporting."
"It's a powerful tool that is open source."
"This solution is very user-friendly, and allows for a lot of data capture when testing."
"The solution is scalable."
"Apache JMeter is quite flexible."
"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 been very helpful to have connectivity with mobile. The tool also identifies some of the actual changes from the recordings on the actual testing suite. That is something that I really like."
"Multiple scanning engines to automate many different applications."
"The tool can be handled without any knowledge in parameterisation, especially the TestCaseDesign which makes the tool mighty and stable."
"The solution is script-less, so you don't need IT knowledge to use the solution in an operational way. This is the most valuable feature. It's also only one of two or three tools that can do good automation on SAP, and in my opinion, it's the best of those."
"Image recognition: It has allowed us to automate a GUI section of our product which involves drawing different topologies."
"We can also create customized functions. For example, if something isn't supported in Tricentis Tosca Commander, we can create our own function to integrate it with Tosca Commander, so we can utilize it and integrate with the macros."
"With one click, it will scan all the elements on the screen, so that the user can select the required elements for automation tests."
"It can provide all levels of testing from design to execution to reporting."
"If the solution was GUI based, I believe that it would be more versatile."
"The UI could be better."
"We would like some reporting and analysis tools to be added to this solution."
"Until now, JMeter is not supporting most of the protocols."
"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."
"In terms of platform support, they need to extend the support for backend platforms and more of the legacy types of platforms."
"The solution could use some sort of educational features to offer tips and hints to help users navigate it better. They should improve the manuals and help files."
"Security, UI, and basic performance improvements could be done to the product to enhance its use."
"The product needs to improve its pricing. It also needs to improve the infrastructure and DEX agent setup."
"Tosca's reporting features could be better. Tricentis had a reporting tool called Analytics, but it didn't function properly after they reworked it. After that, they tried a new approach with key-tracing, and that didn't work."
"The source controls that are in Tricentis Tosca have some problems. For example, if you use Selenium or use Java-based application, it's easy to match code from two developers. However, if you're a developer and going to look at Tricentis Tosca, it's very difficult to use the source control measure."
"I would like a better user interface."
"Making it more stable would be good because we get around 90% stability."
"The support we received from Tricentis Tosca was good, but it can improve."
"In Tosca, I see that there are no user guides."
