ReadyAPI Initial Setup

SandeepSingh9 - PeerSpot reviewer
Sr. QA Engineer at Arizona Department of Education

The initial deployment for ReadyAPI was pretty straightforward. The tool has a good setup if you have your own kit. You can just integrate ReadyAPI with the kit, and once that's done, the deployment is pretty smooth.

The deployment of ReadyAPI didn't take more than ten to fifteen minutes.

The initial setup of ReadyAPI was straightforward, which included the local installation and having a dedicated test automation server for the executions.

If the entire access and everything are in place with the licenses the whole process of deployment should not take more than five minutes.

The initial setup of ReadyAPI can be challenging. The web pages lack comprehensive information, which makes tasks like configuring keys for a bucket difficult. Even with admin profiles, permission issues can arise during the transition from SoapUI to ReadyAPI. Additionally, dealing with XML configuration files can be problematic, and sometimes they get corrupted, requiring a fresh start with projects.

As long as you have access to the right licenses, it's a very straightforward setup.

The setup was straightforward and the transition was smooth. 

Migrating scripts from existing systems took some time but was healthy. We had dedicated SMEs who operated the other systems so there was a lot of dependency that was eliminated. 

The solution is an easy tool to learn. Once scripting and everything is completed, anybody with installation knowledge can run it.

The implementation process is very straightforward. You just install it from an installer, and you could go on and start working on it from there. It's not very messy, and it's not very lengthy. You could just simply install and start.

I'd rate the ease of implementation 4.5 or five out of five.

The initial setup of ReadyAPI is not too tough. It is important to make sure that the executable file has all the correct options. 

After installing ReadyAPI, you need to point it to your repository, either GitHub or Bitbucket, where your code resides. Then it will take about two hours  to initialize and to get the test loaded.

Everything is deployed on AWS. There is a deployment engineer who's doing the deployment. I don't know too much about it. We don't use anything like CD, CI/CD, or anything like that since we don't have the people to do those things. It's all manual. We have just one person (that's an architect) that handles deployment and maintenance. 

Each deployment could take anywhere from 15 minutes to a half hour.

The complexity depends on your skill level. For somebody who doesn't know a whole lot about web services and how they're structured, it's kind of complex to set up.

It is straightforward. We can set up the application and start testing straight away. It takes about 15 minutes to deploy the desktop application.

It does not need any other maintenance. It just needs upgrades, and the upgrades are automatic.

This tool is very easy to set up and install because you can download ReadyAPI and you just need the product key. It was done in a matter of minutes.

We have an employee who deals directly with the access keys and maintenance. I think I have been on this specific project for about a year and a half, and I have only seen a maintenance window two times, and they typically don't last long or they do it in the off-times so they don't really affect my work.

The initial setup is straightforward. You only need a license file from the customer, then download EXE and install the ReadyAPI. If the software support center is not providing us with the EXE., we usually download it from the internet. The customers provide a paid license file, or a license variety, in the model they are configuring. The setup takes approximately five to ten minutes.

The solution is simple to implement and very straightforward. 

You have a license manager that you have to install in your license server or machine, and then you just have to install the instance of ReadyAPI.

The initial setup of ReadyAPI was considered to be easy. It's quite straightforward. We have to download the .EXE and install it and register with the license. That's it.

It is easy to install, but it takes time to set up your testing environment. You need to figure out how your API works and save the mutual authentications. You need to know the specification of your API partner and this takes time. It is not difficult to maintain.

The initial setup is straightforward or works similarly to a Windows application. Once you open it up, you import the APIs which you want to automate or which you want to run. It is easier to setup compared to other API test automation tools. Deployment takes a few minutes.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward, it's just an exe. And then when we execute it, the UI pops up and we can use it. Recently I think they've added a lot of integrations and other new releases. Implementation takes a couple of minutes and we're up and running.
