We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Stability-wise, I have not experienced any downtime or other performance issues.""LambdaTest easily integrates with leading project management, bug tracking, and CI-CD tools like Jira, Asana, Jenkins, Circle CI, and more.""The slow nature of a cloud platform was compensated with parallel testing, and now we are able to finish our testing job faster than it was before COVID.""The UI is pretty clean and easy to navigate, and we were able to figure it out very quickly.""Our test execution time was reduced to 16 mins from five hours when executed in parallel on multiple VMs. This has been extremely helpful!""The support docs are precise and you can get started with them easily.""This product offers out-of-the-box geolocation testing in automation, which is amazing!""LambdaTest offers geolocation testing in automation, which is amazing!"

More LambdaTest Pros →

"It is quite stable, and it has got very user-friendly features, which are important in terms of maintaining our scripts from a long-term perspective. It is very stable for desktop-based, UI-based, and mobile applications. Object repositories and other features are also quite good.""One of the important features, which speeds up the automation testing development with LeanFT, is its object repository functions. Object identification are the most time-consuming aspect of building automation tests. LeanFT gives that out of the box. It helps you identify the objects and after that, once you got the object in place, then it's just about building the test scripts. So it reduces your development time significantly.""The most valuable features are the object repository.""The most valuable feature for me is the number of protocols that can be tested. It not only tests Web, but also SAP, Siebel, .Net, and even pdf.""The cost is the most important factor in this tool.""The most valuable feature is stability.""The most valuable feature is the Object Model, where you can directly pull up the object as a global or a local.""The most valuable feature is the automation of test cases."

Cons
"I've also had some issues with the speed of certain API calls and the rendering of data. For example, when I'm onboarding data, the process can be slow.""The scalability is good with Amazon, but IBM had some issues.""Improvements on a platform need to happen on a timely basis...There should be some new features coming up or some performance improvisation over a period of time.""Responsive testing UI is a bit cluttered, whereas the LT browser is much better to use.""You cannot perform native-app testing, as they offer simulation for web testing only.""I think Lambdatest is a valuable tool for our team and things that have room for improvement would be mobile app testing, as it can be an important addition to the tool.""Mobile application testing will be an added benefit for us if LambdaTest implements this really soon.""Load flow compared to other stacks needs improvement."

More LambdaTest Cons →

"In the next release, I would like to see the connectivity improved to be less complex and more stable.""The parallel execution of the tests needs improvement. When we are running tests in LeanFT, there are some limitations in terms of running the same tests simultaneously across different browsers. If I'm running a test, let's say to log in, I should be able to execute it through IE, through Microsoft Edge, through Chrome, through Mozilla, etc. This capability doesn't exist in LeanFT. Parallel execution of the test cases across different browsers need to be added.""UFT Developer is good, but it requires high-level development skills. Scripting is something that everybody should know to be able to work with this product. Currently, it is very development intensive, and you need to know various scripting languages. It would be good if the development effort could be cut short, and it can be scriptless like Tosca. It will help in more adoption because not every team has people with a software engineering background. If it is scriptless, the analysts who wear multiple hats and come from different backgrounds can also use it in a friendly manner. It is also quite expensive.""It's now too heavy and they should be making it faster. We do an attempt at automatic regression testing. We schedule a test to start at a certain time. It takes a lot of time to download the resources and start UFT. Competitors in this area have tools that start faster and run the test faster. For example, if the test at our side will take 10 minutes, another tool will do that in one minute.""The product has shown no development over the past 10 or 15 years.""UFT is like a flagship of testing tools, but it's too expensive and people are not using it so much. They should work on their pricing to make themselves more competitive.""We push one button and the tests are completely executed at once, so just have to analyze and say it's okay. It would be nice if this could be entirely automated.""The pricing could be improved."
