We performed a comparison between TestRail and Tricentis Tosca based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Regression Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The features that I have found most valuable are that there are various test case templates and test artifact maintenance."
"I use the product to create test cases and share them with my team and manager."
"I was on the lookout for automation testing on the browser and I believe this tool is very interesting in that matter. The solution is useful for UI testing. You just need to add the URL that is to be checked."
"I haven't faced any stability issues using the solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Most valuable features are the ease of organizing test cases and a great API for sending results from automated test run results into the database."
"The API to support integration of the homemade automated testing tool."
"Reliable and stable. It is important that TestRail be up and running 24/7 as we have users around the world using it."
"The ability to time test runs gives the tester the ability to compare calculated times to actual times it takes for a test case to run."
"It's stable and reliable."
"It is easy to maintain and easy to automate. No coding skills are required to automate. It is also easy in terms of transferring knowledge and skills. Many of my team members shifted over the past one and a half years, and there was no big issue with respect to knowledge sharing. It is a good tool that enables me to re-automate my scripts and update my scripts as quickly as possible. Looking at the amount of rework and maintenance activity that we had done for our scripts, it might have been a nightmare with some other scripting tool."
"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."
"To me, what stands out the most about Tricentis Tosca is that even if I'm not a technical tester, I could pick up on how to use it very quickly because of the mechanisms of the tool, for example, its scanning mechanism. I'm not so technical, but I'm able to maneuver through Tricentis Tosca and derive capability. It's a user-friendly tool. It's not very complex."
"I am impressed with the product's script test."
"This solution is easy to use for everybody, including those who are not IT-educated."
"The scalability is a valuable feature of Tricentis Tosca."
"Good use in Agile workshops, where the person needs to conceptualize the tests before the developer provides the complete application interface."
"I do see room for lots of improvement in it. In terms of usability, duplication with test cases and constant creation of projects isn't easy. There is also too much API integration into automation tools, which is not there in ALM with UFT. Instead of setting it up as a project and using it, we set it up as a system for usability. It also lacks in the traceability aspect. For traceability, you need to use the JIRA plugin and drag traceability on JIRA, but the functionality is still quite limited. The biggest gap is mainframe testing. It would be good if I could start with mainframe testing. Manual granting of access is another issue. There is no API that I could use with another system where it is automated. There is an API for loading somebody to a project but not for adding to the application."
"TestRail should improve its pricing."
"TestRail's user interface is not great. When you use it for the first time, you will be very uncomfortable and not know how to create test cases. It doesn't have a field for preconditions and post-conditions."
"The platform needs improvement regarding performance and creating links."
"The TestRail API to integrate reporting of automated tests is complete, but requires many requests to identify the appropriate entry."
"It would be nice if they would add an export to Word."
"This solution has room for improvement. For example, some particular projects need to adjust access or add additional members and this isn't always possible. Role-based access would improve this."
"It would be nice to have a description section when creating the test scenario itself so I can indicate what the configuration should be."
"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."
"It is quite difficult to integrate the solution with other tools."
"It requires some coding customization that requires expertise."
"Not being able to mask test data in relation to testing data management, in my opinion, is also a limitation."
"ScratchBook execution needs to be improved as Tosca crashes multiple times."
"Setup wasn't that straightforward; it was more complex. It all depends on the environment, because there were a lot of errors on our applications. Therefore, it wasn't an easy setup for us."
"The reporting function was lacking in usability and detail."
"Tosca's reporting features could be better. Tricentis had a reporting tool called Analytics, but it didn't function properly after they reworked it. After that, they tried a new approach with key-tracing, and that didn't work."
