We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"One aspect that I like about Micro Focus UFT Developer is the ability to integrate it into a testing framework as a library.""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 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 most valuable features are the object repository.""The most valuable feature is the automation of test cases.""The solution helps to accelerate software testing automation. It will help to reduce lead time and increase productivity and efficiency.""The solution is very scalable.""The most valuable feature of Micro Focus UFT Developer is the flexibility to work with many different types of software."

"The way it identifies elements is good.""The performance and load testing are very good.""The most valuable aspects of the solution are the font, size, and interface.""Has a very smooth process for launching and closing the application after execution.""Before using Telerik Test Studio, I was a manual tester, so it was my first automation tool, yet I felt very comfortable using it. I've used the record and play feature, and Telerik Test Studio was easy to use. The tool was easy to understand, even for a first-time user like me."

Cons
"The pricing could be improved.""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.""Object definition and recognition need improvement, especially with calendar controls. I faced challenges with schedulers and calendars.""The support for .NET Framework and Visual Studio in Micro Focus UFT Developer is currently limited. At present, only Visual Studio 2019 is supported, despite the release of a newer version (2022). Similarly, the tool only supports up to .NET Framework version 4.3.8, while there have been six newer versions released. This is an area that could be improved upon, particularly in the Windows environment.""It would be improved by adding a drag-and-drop interface to help alleviate the coding.""The price of the solution could improve.""In the next release, I would like to see integration with different cloud-based tools such as Azure.""The support from Micro Focus needs a lot of improvement."

More OpenText UFT Developer Cons →

"Its UI is not very user-friendly and could be improved. For new users, it isn't easy.""The charts need to be more detailed and customizable.""There are some compatibility issues with the load standpoint test.""I observed that the Excel and Word validation was quite challenging, which is an area for improvement in the tool. I also experienced minor difficulties with Telerik Test Studio, particularly in fetching elements in some scenarios when using C# for coding.""It can be improved by including a feature that allows multiple file types to be selected simultaneously."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It is quite expensive and is priced per seat or in concurrent (or floating) licenses over a period of months."
  • "The pricing is quite high compared to the competition."
  • "The cost of this solution is a little bit high and we are considering moving to another solution."
  • "When we compare in the market with other tools that have similar features, it may be a little bit extra, but the cost is ten times less."
  • "It is cheap, but if you take the enterprise license, it is valid for both software items."
  • "The licensing is very expensive, so often, we don't have enough VMs to run all of our tests."
  • "Its cost is a bit high. From the licensing perspective, I am using a concurrent license. It is not a seed license. It is something that I can use in our network. It can also be used by other users."
  • "The price of the solution could be lowered. The cost is approximately $25 per year for a subscription-based license."
