Find out in this report how the two API Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The best thing about the solution is that there is a record and playback functionality."
"The scalability of the product is good."
"The most valuable features of Katalon Studio are its user-friendliness and the AI smart healing capabilities."
"The recording feature of this product is very valuable for our testing purposes."
"The ability to build all libraries with codes and use them in many situations has been most valuable."
"This solution is very user-friendly to learn and implement, and less technical knowledge is required to handle automation."
"Whenever I speak to the support team of Katalon Studio, I learn that some new features will be included in the product. It is a scalable product."
"I personally like the 'Object Spy' feature of this tool. It makes it easy to find an element on the web page."
"It is a stable solution."
"On a scale of one to ten, I would give OpenText UFT One a 10 because it is a reliable product, it works, it's as good or better than similar solutions especially because you get technical support from real people. Additionally, upgrades are always provided on a consistent basis."
"The inside object repository is nice. We can use that and learn it through the ALM connection. That's a good feature. The reporting and smart identification features are also excellent."
"It's easy to use for beginners and non-technical people."
"It helps in identifying defects earlier. With manual testing, that 15-day timeline meant there were times when we would find defects on the 11th or 12th day of the cycle, but with automation we are able to run the complete suite within a day and we are able to find the failures. It helps us to provide early feedback."
"The interface is fine and there is nothing else to add in terms of enhancement."
"The high-level security, high standard and compatible SAP are great."
"The stop automation is a great feature."
"We would like to see improved integration with various reporting tools; this would make our testing data more complete."
"The solution can be further improved with better loading time."
"Katalon doesn't support testing of hybrid applications. It's a limitation."
"I've seen that our clients are not truly aware of the power behind Katalon."
"Katalon Studio should improve its usability, it still needs some improvement where users can easily use it to build their automation suite. It requires some initial work to set it up. There should be more keywords in the library to limit the coding requirements, this will allow a non-technical person easily start using it, which would be better."
"During parallel execution, some reports are randomly switched."
"Katalon Studio's pricing is expensive."
"The tool's maintenance is very difficult since they do not follow call by value or call by reference. Due to this, any change happening is not reflected throughout all the test cases. There are some issues with data parameterization as well."
"The speed could be improved because a large test suite takes some time to execute."
"One of the drawbacks is that mobile performance testing is in need of improvement."
"It doesn't support Telerik UI controls and we are currently looking for a patch for this."
"We'd like it to have less scripting."
"They should include AI-based testing features."
"We used to run it as a test suite. Micro Focus provides that in terms of a test management tool as ALM, but when we think of integrating with a distributed version control system, like Jenkins, there isn't much integration available. That means we need to make use of external solutions to make it work."
"Technical support could be improved."
"I would like Micro Focus to provide more information on their portal about their newer products. The information about UFT One was outdated. The image recognition features could also be better."
