Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
We were able to add a step-by-step procedure for someone to follow to assist in testing. The features of this product most valuable to me were the test case management and the visual status, by which it was displayed. | The most valuable feature is the full integration between Work management, Source code management, and Test Automation. The features that we find most valuable are the Workflow, Scrum workflow, and Dashboards. The most valuable feature is the flexibility of the configuration, being able to configure it to suit your own needs. This tool can be used anywhere and on any device. It has an easy UI that can easily plug-in to every level. Some of the features that are most important to me of JIRA Agile are the sprint planning, being able to write user stories and being able to use task management. Reporting: It gives a nice report of my backlog and what my team has currently spent its efforts on. It benefits us because we have globally located teams. Our team members work in different geographies, so the product is a better way to manage progress and see the status of different tasks |
Cons | |
Being able to add scripting for testing can and does save a lot of time. When you are able to just ‘run’ a test case rather than manually add it and run it. Two areas that can stand improvement: integration with third party products and making it more intuitive. | The hierarchy for Jira tickets is too flat. It would be very useful to have drag and drop time tracking. The plugin management needs a lot of work. The user interface and views on different devices should be improved. The CACD solutions on JIRA has some plugins, but they are not easily understandable or workable. I have had problems with performance and unresponsiveness. All of a sudden, the performance slowed down, and I had a number of users that could not use the tool. JIRA still has their own backtracking tools. It should have a better visibility into HPE UFT. Most people use functional testing tools, like QTP. They need to improve their integration to make it seamless. There is a difficulty viewing all the attachments because they are shown in one place. I would like attachments to be shown at the comment level. |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
The pricing was excellent. I would recommend the enterprise solution. | Licensing is on a monthly basis, and it is based on what you use. We feel that the product is a good value for the cost. I understand JIRA is quite expensive. It does not cost that much. Almost everybody uses JIRA nowadays because it is the most cost-effective solution. |
