We performed a comparison between Eggplant Test and ReadyAPI based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Test Automation Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is a stable one."
"Good text reading ability."
"Its scalability is good. It is useful for desktop applications, and it also uses OCR and does image recognition."
"The most valuable features of Eggplant Digital Automation Intelligence are bug hunting and OCR technology."
"It provides very strong cross-platform support."
"We did see a massive return on investment from using Eggplant."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create code from a flow chart, and then run the code through it."
"We are able to now automate tests, which so far have been manual."
"The great thing about ReadyAPI is that it has a wide variety of functions. You can test any API that you come across. You are not limited to one type of API. It supports many APIs."
"The initial setup of ReadyAPI is straightforward."
"When we are doing API testing we have found it to be very efficient to receive results. Additionally, you are able to do tests directly from the API."
"The most valuable feature is being able to run each version for test suites."
"The most valuable feature of ReadyAPI is that it is user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature has been the assertion as a test step as this has allowed us to increase the scope of testing and validation."
"For anyone who does not have experience with automation, ReadyAPI provides a sense of comfort, especially for testers who find it hard to go directly into coding."
"It can create stress tests very fast, and some features help you do it fast."
"A step forward would be to have event support, because it is more or less linear at the moment."
"There was no free trial in it."
"It has low productivity."
"Its performance and stability could be better."
"The reporting function is a bit shallow. The solution does not offer very comprehensive reporting in terms of your test results. The reporting time and the logs are very high level as well. These areas need improvement."
"They need to update the Linux. I think it's kind of an outdated Java Swing application."
"The IDE could be even more full-featured. Because I was a developer, I was very spoiled by either Visual Studio Code or Visual Studio for shortcuts. For example, I was able to say "ctor" and hit Tab and it would create a template of a constructor for me... It would be great, when I want to create a new function, if there were shortcut commands like those that helped create all of the functions, or if there were shortcut features to do any of the complex plans."
"I would like to see standardized actions already built into Eggplant. For example, "wait eight seconds". That way, I wouldn't need to create it as an action. Right now, I have to program that wait and describe it as an action so that everybody knows it is an action that waits eight seconds... That way, somebody who is not familiar with programming processes like "if-else", or "for", or "while", would be able, from the first moment, and without programming, to put some easy-to-use, standardized, actions in place."
"If ReadyAPI had more integration with all of the big tools on the market then this would be very useful."
"Can be improved by including an inherent feature for UI automation."
"ReadyAPI could improve by having dynamic validation information."
"Performance and memory management both need to be improved because other solutions use less memory for the same amount of data."
"The reporting in ReadyAPI could be better. It can become sloppy, sometimes it works and other times it does not."
"I would like to see a better dashboard for monitoring in the next release of this solution."
"To generate a test suite in API, I had to create a separate one each time because otherwise it was just override the test. Each API had to be added separately. I thought I could just have one and then create different methods, but I had to add each API separately to create the test for that. That is an area that could be improved."
"In terms of features, I have already raised different change requests on the ReadyAPI side. One of the largest functions I've requested is the validation of the payload for the REST APIs."
