We performed a comparison between Eggplant Test and Visual Studio Test Professional based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."Good text reading ability."
"Everything is happening on the layout or display that is used by the user. Eggplant prompts processes, like 'click here,' or 'look for this image.' Eggplant makes it possible for QA people and BAs, working in the actual display, to check if the software is providing the right images, the right text, and the right results. They don't have to go inside the code or to the TCP/IP layer. Everything is happening at the highest level."
"The most valuable features would be the image recognition and the OCR."
"We are able to now automate tests, which so far have been manual."
"The solution is a stable one."
"The main feature of Eggplant Test is that it can do fully automated web testing and app testing."
"The solution is based on a Windows model, where adding users is just a few clicks. It is easy to manage users and add them."
"The features that we like the most are the developer interface and the ability to quickly develop and deploy tests."
"The most valuable feature is the in-built support for C# and .NET projects."
"We are satisfied with technical support. Communicating with them is very simple. We also have a lot of online resources to check and to study and to train our team with. The documentation is very clear and readily available."
"The debugging feature is valuable."
"The solution is easy to use and they have also integrated with Microsoft."
"One of the best documentation in the world."
"It's great for the development of .NET."
"Visual Studio Test Professional's most valuable feature is the rich IDE for doing code and test development."
"The most valuable features are tools like IntelliSense and ReSharper."
"Its performance and stability could be better."
"It has low productivity."
"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."
"Eggplant Digital Automation Intelligence could improve by lowering the price."
"Eggplant Test should emphasize on improving its offering in non-Windows environments."
"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."
"In terms of additional features, it would be helpful to have one package for all testing. You have the manager, the AI, then you have functional, and about 10 different packages for installing."
"They need to update the Linux. I think it's kind of an outdated Java Swing application."
"The product must provide more automation."
"The integration with Git needs improving because it is a bit disjointed and unpredictable."
"Visual Studio Test Professional could improve by having better integration with external databases."
"The price could be improved."
"The product must provide more integration."
"It is not good in terms of performance. When you open Visual Studio, you have to wait for a while to process your code. It uses a lot of resources and has a lot of features. If we could disable some of the features, it would be lighter and faster to use. Nowadays, for some of the projects, we use VS Code for JavaScript or Python. VS Code is very light and easy to use, whereas, in Visual Studio, we have to wait because it takes time to compile or run a project. It has a lot of competitors in terms of performance, such as Intelligent ID. Intelligent ID is very easy to use. It has many features, and it is lighter to use than Visual Studio. In terms of error handling, sometimes, it shows an error before you finish your code, which can be improved. It would be good if it has a version for Linux. I use VS Code on Linux, but I am not sure if Visual Studio has a version for Linux."
"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."
"I would like to see more integration in the solution."
