After installing it with the installation wizard and obtaining a single-sheet license from the manager, I faced difficulties when others attempted to reuse the same license on their machines. Despite uninstalling the application from my machine, it persisted in indicating that someone else still used the license.

My company did not seek the help of a consultant or an integrator for the solution's deployment phase. It was easy to install.

I did it myself in-house. It’s very simple. No rocket science needed. Just read the manuals and you can do it.

I implemented it with the guidance and help of the support team. It can be done by the testing team without any help from a consultant.

We performed the implementation in-house.

Our own team handled the implementation. We didn't need any outside assistance from integrators or consultants. 

In-house

Implemented in-house. Implementation is not difficult to implement or write tests especially if you have experience with other test automation tools.

We implement the automation by ourselves, not through any other vendor team. My suggestion is that you need to decide how to divide the automation work into corresponding components carefully. Otherwise, it will be hard for you to share the common scripts with other team members. Also, the code architecture design is very important as well.

We implemented it through an in-house team.

We implemented it in-house. As with any automation platform, carefully planning the intended usage, understanding the technology under test and determining which features will be used are critical to success.

I installed everything myself. It was very straightforward. The real key is knowing what you need for your environment and to adapt the available tools.

The implementation was performed in-house, and was quite easy despite the issues with the licenser. The best advice I can offer would be to plan out your testing environment and requirements before you begin. If you plan to use virtual machines for your test systems, make sure you also have a physical box to run the licenser that is dedicated to the lab. Do not attempt to use someone’s PC as it may not always be available when the test machine are trying to run.

We handled the deployment ourselves. We didn't need the assistance of an integrator or consultant.

We had a mixed team. The implementation was smooth overall and requires a few skilled automation experts to oversee the transition/initial implementation.

The implementation was done by me. The best recommendation is to read the help guide, especially if you are using the product in different ways, like floating licenses. This is where the license server is on one machine and people have to access TestComplete that are not local. However, if you run into any issues, the customer support department is there to help in any way they can.

The implementation was done entirely in-house. The projects were made from scratch, where function libraries & test suites were made from existing manual test cases.

We used a vendor team. My advice for implementation is only one, follow the best practices (some of them are available on the vendor site). They were formulated based on real experiences.

We didn't use an integrator, reseller or consultant for the deployment. We handled the entire process ourselves.

TestComplete was implemented with the help of contract software developers who created the test scripts, which was invaluable to be able to use it for testing, and to use them as templates so we could copy and modify to make new scripts.

It was done through a vendor. It's better to get it done through vendors, as they are then responsible in the future.

In-house team is used for implementing framework for automation through TestComplete. Tool must be explored completely and knowing its unique features is more important before implementation as it has lot of inbuilt features.

It was already in place when I joined the company.

We handled the implementation ourselves.

It was done in-house.

Use JScript for quick wins. Start creating tests as small as possible.

The implementation was handled in house by our own teams.

Following initial training by the vendor, the implementations are done in-house.

In-House.

I did everything by myself. There is nothing difficult in it, TestComplete is very user-friendly.

I implemented it myself, using instructions from the vendor’s website.

• Some dev input required to develop app for playback
• Products own script playback facility is unreliable and we needed something that could kill and relaunch TestComplete

I'm not sure whether we did it in-house or through an outside team.

We do get some training from SmartBear, but we implement tests on our own.

I implemented TestComplete independently. Their "How-To" videos, forums, and support team are incredibly valuable!
