Find out what your peers are saying about OpenText, Microsoft, IDERA and others in Test Management Tools."The reporting functionality helps vendors and technical resources identify bugs and issues that need to be addressed. The simple dashboard-style home page makes training end-user testers simple and straightforward. The actual testing UI is VERY straightforward and very intuitive for the end-users that test the system since very often we pull from business and operational users to help test new systems."
"We were able to add a step-by-step procedure for someone to follow to assist in testing."
"Inflectra SpiraTest has a lot of functionality, which is good."
"I found Inflectra SpiraTest intuitive enough. It's also easy to learn, so this is what I like about it."
"The user-friendly features are the most valuable. For example, migration of requirements and migration of test cases and the creation of traceability. You have various reports that you need. The plug-ins that are available to connect with the other tools."
"The features of this product most valuable to me were the test case management and the visual status, by which it was displayed."
"The ability to reuse test cases already used across projects is the most valuable feature of this solution. We don't need to create new ones."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is regression testing tools."
"The solution is mainly stable."
"The solution is great as a record and playback tool. It also has valuable regression testing."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its ability to integrate with Azure DevOps for continuous integration and deployment."
"I like the cross browser compatibility. It saves a lot of time re-writing scripts to accommodate different browsers."
"Runs in different remote machines. We have multiple versions of the software being tested."
"The solution helps improve the stability of our product. It also decreases the work of our manual quality assurance engineers."
"Complete works perfectly with CUTE. That includes all dialogues, right-click menus, or system dialogues, etc., which are handled well."
"It should develop integration with JIRA. We have some complexities which caused us not to decide to integrate it with our JIRA, like synchronous data."
"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."
"The user interface is slightly complicated and not very consistent. It could be more user friendly."
"The UI for managing test cases, test sets, test runs could be a little more integrated, currently, these feel disjointed at times and confusing. Also, the test steps page needs to display the test steps closer to the top of the UI so as to not have to scroll down to find."
"The folder organization in Inflectra SpiraTest could be better, though I cannot comment whether that is structure-related. Most of what I need would probably be in the tool, but as a test manager, I need to be able to create dashboards and reports easily."
"Two areas that can stand improvement: integration with third party products and making it more intuitive."
"Migrating is not very easy. It depends on the organization, how efficient and effective the decision-making process is. The plug-ins should be easier and more integrated rather than the user trying to integrate the tools which are more popular, like Jira et al."
"SmartBear products generally have a weak link when it comes to integration with other test management tools like Inflectra."
"Increased performance with less memory and CPU usage."
"The integration tools could be better."
"This solution could be improved by making it easier to visualize where there is a failure without having to look at it in detail."
"The way objects are added and used when utilizing descriptive programming could be improved. It is a little unwieldy, compared to UFT."
"To bring it up to a 10, I would be looking for the addition of some key functional API testing."
"The pricing is the constraint."
"The artificial intelligence needs to be improved."
