Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature is stability.""Integrates well with other products.""The most valuable feature for me is the number of protocols that can be tested. It not only tests Web, but also SAP, Siebel, .Net, and even pdf.""One aspect that I like about Micro Focus UFT Developer is the ability to integrate it into a testing framework as a library.""The solution helps to accelerate software testing automation. It will help to reduce lead time and increase productivity and efficiency.""It's a complete pursuit and it's a logical pursuit working with HPE.""The most valuable feature of Micro Focus UFT Developer is the flexibility to work with many different types of software.""It is a product that can meet regulations of the banking industry."

"It is a complete solution for mobile application testing.""There are numerous valuable features such as automation, the ones that facilitate importing and synchronization capabilities between our platform, Jira, and Azure DevOps.""The solution is easy to use. There are features to orchestrate mobile testing, including mobile testing automation. You can test different devices at the same time.""The product is easy to use.""The fact that it allows users to test on real mobile devices instead of emulators is something that projects have told us is beyond compare.""The most valuable feature of this solution is virtualization.""For automation testing, the tool provides the record and playback option, which helps with object detection easily."

Cons
"We push one button and the tests are completely executed at once, so just have to analyze and say it's okay. It would be nice if this could be entirely automated.""The product has shown no development over the past 10 or 15 years.""It would be improved by adding a drag-and-drop interface to help alleviate the coding.""Easier connectivity and integration with SAP would be helpful.""The support from Micro Focus needs a lot of improvement.""With Smart Bear products generally, you can have only one instance of the tool running on a machine.""The parallel execution of the tests needs improvement. When we are running tests in LeanFT, there are some limitations in terms of running the same tests simultaneously across different browsers. If I'm running a test, let's say to log in, I should be able to execute it through IE, through Microsoft Edge, through Chrome, through Mozilla, etc. This capability doesn't exist in LeanFT. Parallel execution of the test cases across different browsers need to be added.""In the next release, I would like to see the connectivity improved to be less complex and more stable."

More OpenText UFT Developer Cons →

"I would like to see more integration with automation tools.""The documentation and user interface both need improvement.""The product's object detection method needs to be improved since it can help testers do perfect testing.""We like to host the tools centrally. We would need them to be multi-tenants, so different projects could log on and have their own set of devices and their own set of apps, and they wouldn't see data from other projects that are using it.""For the most part, the key challenge is ensuring that customers fully utilize the product as intended and adopt the appropriate frameworks to implement the solutions effectively.""We need to scale devices easily. Some customers would like to loop in AWS or other cloud providers to check if their devices have the cloud factor. OpenText UFT Digital Lab needs to improve it.""They should introduce a pay-per-use subscription model."

  • "The pricing is quite high compared to the competition."
  • "The cost of this solution is a little bit high and we are considering moving to another solution."
