Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create code from a flow chart, and then run the code through it.""The main feature of Eggplant Test is that it can do fully automated web testing and app testing.""We are able to now automate tests, which so far have been manual.""It provides very strong cross-platform support.""DAI's newest release allows us to test via scripts rather than models, because we have done 95 percent of our development in functional, not through modeling. I am really happy that then we can use the controller to run scripts rather than having to translate things to models. There are lots of options.""Its scalability is good. It is useful for desktop applications, and it also uses OCR and does image recognition.""Good text reading ability.""We did see a massive return on investment from using Eggplant."

"What I like most about Galen Framework are its advantages, particularly its spec language and the spec file feature."

Cons
"They need to update the Linux. I think it's kind of an outdated Java Swing application.""In terms of additional features, it would be helpful to have one package for all testing.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.""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.""There was no free trial in it.""We found that we had issues regarding the VPN setup, which is one of the reasons that we did not purchase this solution.""The solution would crash from time to time.""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."

"There don't seem to be functions available for automatically generating Galen values based on the specifications in the spec file, and this could be a potential improvement for Galen Framework."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It is scalable, but it is a matter of money in the pocket. You can scale it, but then you have to have additional licenses. The licensing approach of eggPlant is not the best."
  • "Make a smart decision about the number of developer- and execution-only licenses you purchase to maximize your budget. We found that going heavier on execution-only licenses has been a way to reduce our costs and maximize our ability to benefit from the software."
  • "End-to-end testing isn't possible for us because of the licensing problems. It's very expensive, so we only have two development/execution licenses."
  • "It probably has a yearly license."
  • "This solution is expensive when compared to the market. However, the reason it is more expensive is because of its stability, high performance, and for its support of any technology."
  • "Eggplant Test is a very expensive solution."

    Overview

    Across every industry, digital transformation is top of mind. New methods of developing software are driving fast change, and test teams are feeling the pressure. Increasing demand to release faster while maintaining the highest levels of quality is making the testing process more complex and harder to scale.

    With AI-powered testing, Eggplant’s test and automation intelligence delivers the coverage you need to optimize the user experience, speed up release cycles, and improve your quality assurance process. Discover a fast, secure, and easy-to-use solution that tests any kind of software on any platform or device.

    Layout testing seemed always a complex task. Galen Framework offers a simple solution: test location of objects relatively to each other on page. Using a special syntax and comprehensive rules you can describe any layout you can imagine.

    Galen Framework runs well in Selenium Grid. You can set up your tests to run in a cloud like Sauce Labs or BrowserStack so that you can even test your responsive websites on different mobile devices. Galen can run multiple tests in parallel which is also a nice time saver.

    Galen Framework is designed with responsivness in mind. It is easy to set up a test for different browser sizes. Galen just opens a browser, resizes it to a defined size and then tests the page according to specifications.
