Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"You can create virtual services from a live recording or convert raw traffic into request/response pairs.""Ability to vary the responses very easily (randomize, pick-lists, etc.).""We had a number of back-end services that were not available during testing times. What this had allowed us to do is get our early life testing done while those services are not available.""The ability to do parallel development and testing reduces our costs for duplicating environments, improving the productivity of our developers, and bringing products faster to market.""It's got probably the greatest amount of features, in terms of different technologies that you can automate and virtualize, out of any of the solutions out there.""We have had developers produce code later than we wanted to, but we've had some other stuff that was dependent on that. So what we were able to do was virtualize these assets and then go forward with our developer and not have to wait for these additional services to be available.""Helps us to remove barriers that we have with dependencies on services that we don't own, or services that don't even exist yet.""It is easy to use, has a faster time to market, and provides flexibility."

"You can push transactions through to live, and you can intercept some transactions and return them back with mocked data."

Cons
"I would rate the tech support a nine out of ten. They need more knowledge about the connectivity to DevOps orchestration.""I really want to see more of the "express" kind of model, where you get a little bit for free. I'd love to be able to see you be able to edit and author tests without having to be connected to a licensed server. And then, if you want to go and execute tests, then you go and connect to the server... I think it would unblock people to be able to do a lot more work from home or from remote places, where they can't really connect to the server.""It is not a stable solution.""UI should be more user friendly: better usability, more testing oriented.""One major feature I would like to see is on the user administration part. Right now, anybody can access any of the folders and any of the projects.""DevTest is pretty massive. It's hard to tell what different parts of it can be used to do different things. They should modulize it more.""We had to implement an external service catalog. We put it in ServiceNow. I would like to see an integrated service catalog.""The workstation component has a very out-dated UI and is in dire need of a facelift."

    Overview

    CA Service Virtualization acts as a catalyst for DevOps by simulating constrained or unavailable systems across the software development lifecycle (SDLC). This allows developers, testers and performance teams to work in parallel to accelerate app delivery, as well as to “shift-left” the app testing to improve application quality. CA Service Virtualization was previously known as LISA, the product from the ITKO acquisition.

    Tosca Testsuite’s Orchestrated Service Virtualization (OSV) allows enterprises to simulate the behavior of any service needed in your application. It also allows enterprises to create business scenarios that are able to simulate complex business processes even before the completion of your application. OSV offers the independence necessary to avoid costly delays and enables earlier testing within the product cycle.
