We performed a comparison between Parasoft SOAtest, SonarQube, and Tricentis Tosca based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Perforce and others in Functional Testing Tools."If you want something that’s not provided out of the box, then you can write it yourself and integrate it with SOAtest."
"Good write and read files which save execution inputs and outputs and can be stored locally."
"We can automate our scenarios in a data driven format, which shows there is no rework on scripts. We only need to update the test data and run for a number of scenarios."
"We have seen a return on investment."
"Every imaginable source in the entire world of information technology can be accessed and used."
"They have a feature where they can record traffic and create tests on the report traffic."
"We do a lot of web services testing and REST services testing. That is the focus of this product."
"Automatic testing is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable features are code scanning and Quality Gates."
"The solution has a plug-in that supports both C and C++ languages."
"SonarQube is one of the more popular solutions because it supports 29 languages."
"The most valuable features are the segregation containment and the suspension of product services."
"This solution is simple to use and can be quickly deployed."
"Issue Explanations: Documentation with detailed samples. Helps in growing technical knowledge and re-writing logic to conforming solutions."
"There's plenty of documentation available to users."
"There are many options and examples available in the tool that help us fix the issues it shows us."
"The scalability is a valuable feature of Tricentis Tosca."
"One notable feature is its ability to handle negative XPath healing processes. If one XPath fails, Tosca can utilize backup XPaths to ensure test cases do not fail due to locator issues, thereby focusing on identifying application-side issues, which is the ultimate goal."
"Good use in Agile workshops, where the person needs to conceptualize the tests before the developer provides the complete application interface."
"The automation engine is very strong, and it is very competitive in the market in terms of features. They develop a lot of features."
"It's stable and reliable."
"This solution is easy to use for everybody, including those who are not IT-educated."
"Tricentis Tosca is well integrated with other products like Jira."
"The most valuable feature of Tricentis Tosca is the Tosca Commander. Functionality is another thing I find most valuable in the solution."
"Reports could be customized and more descriptive according to the user's or company's requirements."
"The feedback that we received from the DevOps of our organization was that the tool was a little heavy from the transformation perspective."
"UI testing should be more in-depth."
"From an automation point of view, it should have better clarity and be more user friendly."
"The product is very slow to start up, and that is a bit of a problem, actually."
"The performance could be a bit better."
"The summary reports could be improved."
"Tuning the tool takes time because it gives quite a long list of warnings."
"I would like to see dynamic code analysis in the next version of the software."
"Their dashboarding is very limited. They can improve their dashboards for multiple areas, such as security review, maintainability, etc. They have all this information, so they should publish all this information on the dashboard so that the users can view the summary and then analyze it further. This is something that I would like to see in the next version."
"I would like to see SonarQube implement a good amount of improvements to the product's security features. Another aspect of SonarQube that could be improved is the search functionality."
"There needs to be a shareable reporting piece or something we can click and generate easily."
"The security in SonarQube could be better."
"New plug-ins should be integrated into SonarCloud to give more flexibility to the product."
"We did have some trouble with the LDAP integration for the console."
"We found a solution with dynamic testing, and are looking to find a solution that can be used for both types of testing."
"They need to improve on the reports after the execution of automation tests, since all the current organizations are looking for detailed graphical reports."
"With regard to areas of improvement, report customization should be easier. It would be good if Tosca could provide standard reports for at least 20 variants. At present, there are only three to four variants. The mobile engine needs to be faster and easier to use; it is a bit cumbersome. Also, the object identification in the mobile engine needs improvement. I would like to see easy-to-use customizations for reports in the next release."
"Tricentis Tosca's performance could be better. Sometimes when we are remapping or when it is loading it can take a lot of time. There are free solutions that have better performance in this area."
"What needs to be improved in Tricentis Tosca is its centralized repository mechanism because it's not as flexible. The repository in the solution where you store the data and the script for test automation is quite an old-fashioned mechanism that could be improved."
"Might have a learning curve, as it does not follow the traditional Record-Play functionality, but tests have to be built from requirements or Agile story cards."
"You need to spend much more time learning the tool and how to use it, compared to others."
"Tricentis Tosca currently does not support any mobile testing and can be improved."
"Not being able to mask test data in relation to testing data management, in my opinion, is also a limitation."
