Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Katalon Studio and others in Regression Testing Tools."One of the features that I like is Object Recognition. It worked very well, and it allowed me to create a dynamic expert based on my requirements."
"The most valuable feature of Katalon Studio is the ease of use of the solution."
"I rate Katalon Studio's scalability a four out of five."
"The basic framework and project organization is very good."
"The functionality of the data is very good. You can upload and disperse data using the solution."
"We can write code in Java and it is easy to link to other JARs that we find on the internet, which is very handy."
"Video capture on failure is a must have. A picture is worth a thousand words. A video is worth a thousand pictures (literally)."
"It supports multiple easy-to-learn languages."
"We are satisfied with the support of Tricentis."
"This solution is easy to use for everybody, including those who are not IT-educated."
"It's integrated with different technologies, desktop applications, package solutions like SAP, and mobile applications."
"I would rate the scalability a nine out of ten. We have enterprise-level customers."
"The model-based scriptless automation is the most valuable feature because it needs less maintenance as compared to script-based automation."
"You can quickly build automated testing, manage it, and have it run on a regular basis to ensure that there are no issues."
"The Model-Based Test Automation is the most valuable feature, where you can create reusable components. Even though we are using a scriptless automation tool, there still needs to be an understanding of how to create reusable components and how to keep refactoring and how to keep regression, the test scripts, at an okay level. We are coupling Tosca with some other risk-based testing tools, as well, but automation is primarily what we're using Tosca for, the scriptless, model-based technology which is driving automation for us."
"To me, what stands out the most about Tricentis Tosca is that even if I'm not a technical tester, I could pick up on how to use it very quickly because of the mechanisms of the tool, for example, its scanning mechanism. I'm not so technical, but I'm able to maneuver through Tricentis Tosca and derive capability. It's a user-friendly tool. It's not very complex."
"It is very easy to use. You can handle a lot of things together at once in one package, which is a good point for us."
"It's great for the development of .NET."
"The initial setup is easy. It's easy to configure."
"Visual Studio Test Professional is a very scalable solution."
"The solution is very useful for compiling existing projects and developing new projects."
"The debugging feature is valuable."
"One of the best documentation in the world."
"Performance-wise, it is a great tool."
"Its stability needs improvement."
"Now we are having difficulties in using it and had to limit our automation experts to the features that Katalon allows us to use for free. It was free access and they claimed that it would be free for all time."
"Katalon Studio's pricing is expensive."
"We have had some issues when it comes to stability, which is something that needs to be improved."
"The product’s regression testing time could be reduced."
"The integration process with Jira should be enhanced and facilitated."
"My recently-updated Katalon studio version hangs a lot and is not a stable version."
"It seems to lack a few requirements that a typical customer would want. Compared to other solutions, this product is lacking."
"The solution needs to improve its simulation of mobile environments. Right now, that aspect is really lacking."
"The solution is expensive."
"In Tosca, I see that there are no user guides."
"Tricentis Tosca could improve on its mobile automation solution."
"There should be ease of data manipulation within automation test cases."
"The main area where there is room for improvement is how they do upgrades. Going through this current upgrade, we were delayed a month because we are using a third-party tool. It's called Tosca Connect by Tasktop. When this latest upgrade broke that relationship between the two, it took Tricentis a month to come back with a workable solution... Their whole upgrade process needs to be better and cleaner, from an end-user standpoint."
"Tricentis Tosca’s technical support could be improved."
"Very difficult to get information about licensing costs."
"It needs more integration with other tools for monitoring. Microsoft also needs to make it more modern to make it work with microservices and the cloud. It is a bit outdated currently."
"The tool crashes and has high memory consumption."
"The documents on the Microsoft website are not very useful, and they ought to make it easier to find answers."
"The interface should be made attractive."
"The vendor must release a lightweight version of the solution."
"It could be available for multiple platforms and other operating systems like Mac with a native port."
"The product must provide more integration."
"The database administration could be better; you should be able to choose new tools with the development environment in Visual Studio. It could be easier to use."
