Find out in this report how the two Test Management Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The scale possibilities are endless, especially when combined with all the other products that CA has to offer."
"The modeling is a game-changer."
"Measuring test coverage helps in one of the most challenging tasks. It has logic that can help to select the right set of scenarios and know what coverage it will provide."
"Integration with TDM, test data management tool, provides the ability to generate data or use identified (preset or parametrized) test data. It allows significant expansion of test coverage and flexibility, without creating new tests and needing to maintain them."
"The optimization technique helps in giving us the minimum number of test cases with maximum coverage."
"Helps the communication between the testing organization and the requirements group. It helps us to simplify the work. Instead of dealing with individual test cases, you're working with a model."
"I like the way Broadcom ARD inserts test cases in execution mode. Also, ARD can be used apart from Broadcom TDM. It's an add-on through which you supply data through ARD test cases when there is a need for extra data."
"Technical support is excellent. They provide solutions quickly for issues encountered."
"I was on the lookout for automation testing on the browser and I believe this tool is very interesting in that matter. The solution is useful for UI testing. You just need to add the URL that is to be checked."
"The features that I have found most valuable are that there are various test case templates and test artifact maintenance."
"This is a user friendly solution."
"The integration with Jira and the ability for extra configurations are the most valuable features."
"The product helps us create test cases and reports."
"I haven't faced any stability issues using the solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Integration with Confluence and JIRA."
"From a testing perspective, the management is awesome. I am able to do testing and then add the reporting and the evidence. It is fair in terms of the price that you're paying. You get what you're paying for."
"It would help if it would save different subsets of test cases, use cases, etc., of a given diagram, for different purposes and provide an easy way to name those subsets."
"They do not have an engine to house test scripts to really pull together the testing pieces of it."
"I think it's already coming, but it needs more automation aspects. There is a tab for Automation, but I think it's not robust. I think that it's going to be a crucial element of the tool."
"At present, there is no option for test data parameters from ARD for virtual databases. We have to create them in TDM and push them as well. Virtual database connectivity needs to be improved. They need to come up with some areas where they can create synthetic data parameters easily from the test cases that have been designed."
"Needs improvement in aligning models so they look clear and readable without having to move boxes around."
"CA ARD doesn't provide integration with Tosca. The possibility of creating a test case and exporting it into Tosca is not available. Integration with end-to-end automation tools, like Worksoft or Tosca, is not provided by CA ARD as of now."
"The solution could be more user-friendly. For example, attachments could be icon-based to make it easier for the user to notice them."
"Integration with Agile management tools can be improved, i.e., mainly test case maintenance and linking test cases to the automation script."
"Their customer support could be improved. Sometimes we struggle with that. It could be faster. Whenever we raise any query, they get back to you but the turnaround time is very slow."
"The test suite management has room for improvement as well as better reporting."
"Reporting could be more flexible regarding repeating reports."
"It would be nice to have a description section when creating the test scenario itself so I can indicate what the configuration should be."
"I have faced some issues with the integration between TestRail and Jira, which haven't been permanently resolved yet."
"I've encountered at some point, some difficulties on the administration side, but I don't remember exactly what they were."
"It would be nice if they would add an export to Word."
"The reports should be more user-friendly."
