Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The initial setup is relatively easy.""It offers a wide range of testing.""For traditional automation, approximately half of our tests end up automated. Therefore, we are saving half the testing time by pushing it off to automation. That gives it an intrinsic benefit of more time for manual testers and business testers to work on possibly more important and interesting things. For some of our applications, they don't just have to do happy path testing anymore, they can go more in-depth and breadth into the process.""The entire framework is very useful. It's easily integrable with Excel.""I like the fact that we can use LeanFT with our UFT licenses as well.""The solution is easy to integrate with other platforms.""It is very simple to use, and the scripting language is even easier.""The interface is fine and there is nothing else to add in terms of enhancement."

"The pre-defined tests are a great help, specifically the custom JS test that allows us to be able to use custom code to test complicated elements or scenarios.""The automating smoke and regression tests have become easier and handier and manual efforts are saved.""The tool's most valuable feature is the recently added AI feature.""Testim introduces three services covering validation steps, eliminating the necessity to write complex code.""It is a highly stable solution.""The REST API features allowed integrated testing for select products to quickly make calls and test the UIs with API calls while the CLI allows us to matrix the grid function across browsers.""The product is easy to use.""We added Testim to our CI flow. It allows us to test only tasks that already passed sanity tests."

Cons
"Perhaps more coverage as far as different languages go. I'm talking more about object identification.""The product doesn't provide free training for the basic features.""The solution is expensive.""Micro Focus UFT One could benefit from creating modules that are more accessible to non-technical users. Without a developer background or at least basic knowledge of VBScript, using Micro Focus UFT One may not be feasible for everyone. This is something that Micro Focus, now owned by OpenText, should consider in order to cater to business professionals as well. While Micro Focus UFT One does have a recording function, it still requires a certain level of IT proficiency to create effective automation, which may be challenging for those outside of the technical field.""I would like to have detailed description provided to test the cloud-based applications.""I am not sure if they have a vision of how they want to position the leads in the market, because if you look at Tosca, Tosca is one of the automation tools that have a strategy, and it recently updated its strategy with SAP. They are positioning them as a type of continuous testing automation tool. And if you notice Worksoft, particularly the one tool for your enterprise application, your Worksoft is positioning. I am not sure if Micro Focus UFT has a solid strategy in place. They must differentiate themselves so that people recognize Micro Focus UFT for that reason.""The scripting language could be improved. They're currently using Visual Basic, but I think that people need something more advanced, like Python or Java.""The price is very high. They should work to lower the costs for their clients."

More OpenText UFT One Cons →

"The product's areas of improvement include pricing considerations and additional features related to visual testing and PDF handling.""The accessibility reporting features could be more robust to be reported at the script level and allow users to map down to the step level.""There were some issues in the product's initial setup phase in regard to the area of documentation since it wasn't very easy to understand everything mentioned in it.""There are common properties between multiple elements that we should be able to edit - such as 'when this step fails,' 'when to run this step,' and 'override timeout'. I should be able to update these properties if I select multiple elements.""The API testing integration is a bit lacking and can be improved.""Testim sometimes fails due to stability issues. It doesn't always work consistently, especially after running multiple tests.""I get a little bit confused while creating new branches.""The UI could use a better design with a better user experience in mind."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It took about five years to break even. UFT is costly."
  • "The licensing and pricing model is confusing."
  • "It's an expensive solution."
  • "For the price of five automation licenses, you simply would not be able to hire five manual testers for two years worth of 24/7 manual testing work on demand."
  • "The price is only $3,000. I don't know how many QA analysts you would have in any given company. Probably no more than five or 10. So if it's a large corporation, it can easily afford $15,000 to $25,000. I don't see that being an issue."
  • "The way the pricing model works is that you pay a whole boatload year one. Then, every year after, it is around half or less. Because instead of paying for the new product, you are just paying for the support and maintenance of it. That is probably one of the biggest things that I hear from most people, even at conferences, "Yeah, I would love to use UFT One, but we don't have a budget for it.""
  • "The pricing fee is good. If someone makes use of the solution once a day for a half hour then the fee will be more expensive. For continuous use and application of the solution to different use cases, the fee is average."
  • "The price is one aspect that could be improved."

  • "The solution is not expensive."
  • "The tool offers a fixed pricing model for our company."
  • "I rate the product’s pricing an eight out of ten compared to other tools."
