Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Perforce and others in Functional Testing Tools."Testing subscription videos for on-demand software, making them better quality and bug free for our customers."
"It has a wide assortment of platforms."
"Our machines are mostly Windows. Being able to test with Safari, on a Mac, and other types of browser pieces without having to manage all the infrastructure is the biggest feature that our team enjoys."
"Allows us to do JIRA Cloud and BambooHR Integration."
"With only a few clicks, it gives us the availability to use any browser and OS combination whenever we want."
"I find that the multitude of browser and OS versions are very helpful for broadening testing scope."
"APPIUM for mobile testing has improved our organization by allowing us to test our website on more devices and browsers than we currently possess."
"The most valuable feature is the cross-browser feature, it has many android and iOS devices both simulators and real devices. It's easy to integrate. I also like video recording too."
"It works very fine. It is fast on almost any machine, and it is also very well organized. I like its object mapping and its capability to find and interact with almost everything that exists on Windows."
"When compared to other tools, it is very simple."
"Selenium integration."
"In TestComplete, I saw a conformed package of a tool that kept everybody in consistency. The team was able to regenerate further tests without having to manipulate more code because the record feature is great."
"The ease-of-use and quality of the overall product are above average."
"It's cross platform automation capabilities specially ranging across web, UNIX (via putty), and other systems."
"The ability to run a whole suite of tests automatically (which we did overnight)."
"TestComplete fits almost perfectly with a large amount of stacks, such as Delphi, C#, Java and web applications."
"The ability to configure the memory and CPU for the test machines should be included."
"Unable to segregate reports for tests that are currently being developed, and might not be returning useful results."
"If I had to speak of an area that could be improved it would probably have to be the speed of interaction with the devices. There is at times a considerable amount of lag while using some of the virtual and at times even physical device farm"
"Sometimes pasting text while using "text object" does not seem to work, and it slows down testing times quite a bit."
"I may not know what should be improved on the platform, but I think it could offer a greater variety of testing solutions. I know there might be competing solutions that cover more things I'm unaware of, and it could expand a bit more. We've done a lot of automated testing scenarios, and that's all the rage these days, so I think Sauce Labs could look at potential ways to improve and cover other scenarios."
"The Jenkins Sauce OnDemand plugin could have more options available to tap into more of the custom capabilities Sauce Labs actually supports."
"Overall, I think Sauce Labs provides us with a valuable tool and resource. As far as what could be improved, I would say the overall test execution time. Some of the calls take a bit longer than I expect, for example in web browser tests; while the execution time isn't obnoxious, it could be improved so that overall tests/test suites finish faster."
"Speeds up the time it takes to run end-to-end user interface (UI) tests inside their virtual machines (VMs)."
"The solution needs Mac OS support. Right now, the solution has only been developed to accommodate Windows OS."
"The artificial intelligence needs to be improved."
"The way objects are added and used when utilizing descriptive programming could be improved. It is a little unwieldy, compared to UFT."
"During the distribution of our regression test cases, the control IDs are not always recognized correctly."
"In the cross-browser domain, it has a few snags with Microsoft Edge and Chrome; although, these problems are not critical."
"One notable drawback is the absence of native integration with Git."
"Product is not stable enough and it crashes often."
"SmartBear products generally have a weak link when it comes to integration with other test management tools like Inflectra."
