"It supports multiple easy-to-learn languages."
"The automation is very fast and you don't need to be overly proficient in coding."
"Smart Wait and XPath healing are valuable features."
"We are now performing automated testing in 15 minutes, which were previously taking a long time when doing it manually."
"Katalon Studio's biggest advantage is its price. It's a good tool for the price, albeit with some limitations when you compare it with tools like Tricentis Tosca."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward and easy enough to complete."
"This is a product that is well ahead of its immediate competition in features and functionality."
"The scalability of the product is good."
"It's been very helpful to have connectivity with mobile. The tool also identifies some of the actual changes from the recordings on the actual testing suite. That is something that I really like."
"It can provide all levels of testing from design to execution to reporting."
"The product enables codeless automation."
"The use of automation is most valuable."
"It's a simple tool, particularly in terms of system testing. You can also convert and automate using Tricentis Tosca with ease."
"The most valuable feature of Tricentis Tosca is the Tosca Commander. Functionality is another thing I find most valuable in the solution."
"As a codeless automation tool, the product offers a user-friendly experience without requiring extensive coding knowledge. Users can easily handle various applications, including web applications, SAP applications, Windows applications, and even Salesforce applications, without manual coding."
"The most valuable feature is being able to create a test case by recording some scenarios and then leasing that task case to other scenarios."
"Katalon lacks integration with other software, including integrating other languages like .NET and PHP."
"Currently, I'm the only one who can use it because I have a Mac. It is giving a hard time to my team members who are on Linux. My team members are using Linux, and Katalon doesn't support Linux very well. It keeps on crashing. It crashes and shuts down almost every time they save their work, so they are not able to use it. It should have good support for Linux. We don't know what the problem is. If the Katalon team can pick up this issue, it will be very helpful."
"Support options need improvement. It is sometimes hard to find a solution to any given problem, thus you are forced to use another solution."
"The solution can be further improved with better loading time."
"My recently-updated Katalon studio version hangs a lot and is not a stable version."
"There could potentially be more reporting within the solution. We need more issue reports, for example."
"We have been seeing some error pop-ups that are difficult to understand why they were triggered."
"Katalon Studio could improve having visual testing, but I think they're launching that feature very soon. We would like to see an increase in the usage of AI."
"First, Tricentis could improve Tosca's Linux scripting. We can automate Linux scripting, but there are a few commands that Tosca doesn't support. DVS support and the object identification mechanism could also be better."
"The user management could improve in Tricentis Tosca because it is confusing. It would be better to have it in one place. Having to add it to the cloud and to a specific project can be a mess."
"Their license management should be improved. One of our customers is a global customer. They want to use one licensed server and then split the licenses based on the different users of the different business units, but currently, there is only one license server that everybody can access. There is no control, and that's why sometimes congestion can happen."
"Tricentis Tosca currently does not support any mobile testing and can be improved."
"I would like to see more implementation of AI on the self-healing aspect. That would be like the next step."
"They can make it more stable. I have used this tool for SAP applications. They have an alliance with SAP, and it mostly worked fine, but there were a few glitches. However, we got the required support from the Tricentis team. They are coming up with their new versions and upgrades with respect to how the Tricentis systems as cloud applications are updated, and it would be good if they have a robust accelerator pack."
"With regard to areas of improvement, report customization should be easier. It would be good if Tosca could provide standard reports for at least 20 variants. At present, there are only three to four variants. The mobile engine needs to be faster and easier to use; it is a bit cumbersome. Also, the object identification in the mobile engine needs improvement. I would like to see easy-to-use customizations for reports in the next release."
"It requires some coding customization that requires expertise."
