Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Perforce and others in Functional Testing Tools."I like the fact that we can use LeanFT with our UFT licenses as well."
"On a scale of one to ten, I would give OpenText UFT One a 10 because it is a reliable product, it works, it's as good or better than similar solutions especially because you get technical support from real people. Additionally, upgrades are always provided on a consistent basis."
"The scalability of Micro Focus UFT One is good."
"Micro Focus UFT One gives us integration capabilities with both API and GUI components. I like the user interface. It doesn't require that much skill to use and has automatic settings, which is useful for users who don't know what to select. It also has dark and light themes."
"It's simple to set up."
"The initial setup is relatively easy."
"It is easy to automate and new personnel can start learning automation using UFT One. You don't have to learn any scripting."
"It's easy to use for beginners and non-technical people."
"I face no challenges or stability issues."
"The automation engine is very strong, and it is very competitive in the market in terms of features. They develop a lot of features."
"The model-based scriptless automation is the most valuable feature because it needs less maintenance as compared to script-based automation."
"The most valuable feature of Tricentis Tosca is it is a completely scriptless automation tool, which I liked a lot. They keep on continuously improving their tools, wherever we are facing any challenges they are able to provide a solution for it. It is easy to learn, everyone can easily read and understand what is happening with the scripts. Any business user or function tester can use the tool efficiently. This is a complete solution package."
"This solution is easy to use for everybody, including those who are not IT-educated."
"We are satisfied with the support of Tricentis."
"I am impressed with the product's script test."
"It can provide all levels of testing from design to execution to reporting."
"The most valuable features are the SSIS reports, the deployment models, and the ability to interact with other Microsoft tools."
"The solution is very stable; there's nothing in relation to stability to complain about."
"The tool has highly detailed debugging features."
"What I like most about Visual Studio Test Professional is the way people publish templates and publish integration."
"The most valuable features are tools like IntelliSense and ReSharper."
"Visual Studio Test Professional is a very scalable solution."
"The tool is flexible and easy to manage. We use it since it is scalable and easy to use. It integrates with solutions."
"The whole suite is made for .NET development."
"One of the drawbacks is that mobile performance testing is in need of improvement."
"The price is very high. They should work to lower the costs for their clients."
"We have had some issues with stability, where it crashes sometimes."
"The overall design needs an entire overhaul. We prefer software designed to ensure the package isn't too loaded."
"I am not sure if they have a vision of how they want to position the leads in the market, because if you look at Tosca, Tosca is one of the automation tools that have a strategy, and it recently updated its strategy with SAP. They are positioning them as a type of continuous testing automation tool. And if you notice Worksoft, particularly the one tool for your enterprise application, your Worksoft is positioning. I am not sure if Micro Focus UFT has a solid strategy in place. They must differentiate themselves so that people recognize Micro Focus UFT for that reason."
"Perhaps more coverage as far as different languages go. I'm talking more about object identification."
"Micro Focus UFT One could benefit from creating modules that are more accessible to non-technical users. Without a developer background or at least basic knowledge of VBScript, using Micro Focus UFT One may not be feasible for everyone. This is something that Micro Focus, now owned by OpenText, should consider in order to cater to business professionals as well. While Micro Focus UFT One does have a recording function, it still requires a certain level of IT proficiency to create effective automation, which may be challenging for those outside of the technical field."
"The AI feature needs improvement. For banking applications, we input formatted text from documents, but the AI feature is recognizing three fields as one field, e.g., for a phone number, it puts all 10 digits in the international code or country code. Then, the script fails."
"Not being able to mask test data in relation to testing data management, in my opinion, is also a limitation."
"In Tosca, I see that there are no user guides."
"Parallel execution is not yet implemented for Tosca. This means you can't execute the same test case on multiple machines remotely."
"It can be quite expensive."
"ScratchBook execution needs to be improved as Tosca crashes multiple times."
"I would like to see more implementation of AI on the self-healing aspect. That would be like the next step."
"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."
"Running the regression – if multiple lists are executed at once or if a list contains 200+ tests, it’s a pain to stop the execution."
"It would be great to support other languages and applications, and that is one of the things we can improve."
"The solution is quite expensive."
"There are too many features with the product and I would like there to be less."
"The data flow can be improved."
"The documentation is limited."
"We would like to be able to easily integrate this solution with our continuous integration tools, such as Jenkins."
"It could be available for multiple platforms and other operating systems like Mac with a native port."
"It is hard to learn, and you need to invest time to understand it."
