Find out what your peers are saying about Broadcom, OpenText, SmartBear and others in Service Virtualization.
"You can create virtual services from a live recording or convert raw traffic into request/response pairs."
"Scalability has actually worked well and we are able to bring it to multiple environments."
"Easy to understand ways of creating stubs."
"CA Service Virtualization has helped us advance the development cycle when third-party interfaces are not available to us."
"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."
"In the case of the virtualization of TCP/IP protocols for third-party terminal insurance, there was a device terminal, which was interacting with the application via the TCP/IP protocol. Most of the tools don't support that, but we were able to achieve it using Broadcom Service Virtualization."
"You can have a lot of different people with different technologies use the tool, without any programming experience at all, all the way up to people who can program. And then, the more technical that you are, the more programming you have, the more you're able to customize the tool."
"There are several areas that are easily configurable."
"Discovery option to create virtual services."
"The technical support is good."
"In times of DevOps, where continuous delivery and deployment is progressing at such a fast pace, ServiceV Pro has emerged as an add-on for enhancing our API product finish."
"Ties-in with the rest of the SoapUI platform and its ability to record traffic and create a virtual endpoint."
"Features, such as using Groovy scripts for generating dynamic response, which read data out of Excel sheets and one-click deployment are really nice."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"ServiceV Pro enabled our organization to deliver an end-to-end solution by virtualizing external systems, which was easy to implement and provided for a lot of flexibility."
"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."
"Needs some additional lightweight, portable elements."
"It is not a stable solution."
"UI should be more user friendly: better usability, more testing oriented."
"From a reporting perspective I think we would like to have a more user-friendly approach."
"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."
"I'd like to see more of the newer technologies included in there, looking mainly from a mobile perspective, possibly, so you can virtualize some of the aspects that we're going to be doing for mobile testing."
"The solution does not allow you to export APIs to the cURL command like Postman."
"It needs support for a wider set of protocols."
"Greater capacity to create Virtual APIs based on HAR files or wireshark recordings."
"Requires more documentation or videos with examples, which is easily understood by the new users."
"ServiceV still has some bug in the tools, such as structure of the project, integration, and combination with different tools present."
"The effort required to utilize the capabilities/usage of ServiceV Pro looks like the one area where we could have some further improvements"
