ReadyAPI Test Other Advice

Faiz Ahmed - PeerSpot reviewer
Test Automation Specialist / Lead at a consultancy with 10,001+ employees

I rate ReadyAPI Test eight out of 10.  If you're a tester who is new to ReadyAPI, you should read the documentation thoroughly. Start with the theoretical before you implement it in practice. Before selecting an API automation product, read the documentation and understand its capabilities, so you can easily determine if it's a good fit for your business.

Your choice totally depends on what kind of scope you have. If it is just limited to SOAP and REST services, then SoapUI Pro is the best option. Also, the cost is very much less compared to those of other solutions, for example, DevTest, which is the most expensive tool on the market.

I would recommend that if you have any SOAP or REST service automation requirements that you should try out ReadyAPI, which has an evaluation version of SoapUI for 30 days. You could try it, and if you feel that it is a good fit for your automation requirements, then you should definitely think of SoapUI Pro.

I would rate this solution at nine on a scale from one to ten.

I would rate SoapUI nine out of 10. There are many solutions out there in the market, so it's not just SoapUI. But when we consider the SoapUI, it is far more stable. It is far more flexible and easy to use, especially if you consider other automation tools like Selenium IDE. Those are very standard tools wherein you won't get much flexibility. So always have to put in some time on other tools to get results, but in this case, it is more or less flexible, and the features are also getting pretty fast-paced. So yeah, it is beneficial, as the company's, I would say, every issue in the most we can get done. So yeah, it would be helpful for the developers as well as the testers.

I would rate SoapUI a seven out of 10. I would love to work on the SoapUI Pro again because it is really a great product. I would say definitely recommend SoapUI. It's a very useful tool and it will enhance your coding skills as well. It will help you learn to write code well. 
The framework is very easy. It's also easy to do functional testing, API testing, and virtualization. I would recommend this tool for anyone who has to do API testing or UI testing.

I consider it important to have open software solutions that are documented and to have a tool that is implemented according to standards. It's important for me to have a community where I can ask questions or find answers to typical problems. It's good to have some basic functionality in a community version and to step into a tool and then later to pay for licenses.

I rate this solution eight out of 10.

This solution is stored on the database.

For individuals, this solution is great. For teams that would like to collaborate, it's likely not an ideal option.

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten. We've been very happy with its capabilities.

SoapUI has two versions, open-source, and commercial. You can use the commercial version or you can look for the open-source if you are trying to achieve basic steps out of the APIs. However, if you want to scale it up and want to integrate it with CI/CD seamlessly, then you should choose the commercial version.

I rate SoapUI Pro an eight out of ten.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give SoapUI Pro a rating of eight. If the load and bare minimum could be defined, I would give this solution a higher rating. I don't expect a huge level of information, but at least a high level of information.

Overall, I think this solution is very cool and easy-to-use.

Evaluate this solution in a pilot project. Remember that, as test numbers grow, test maintenance will become an issue. Implement scripts to apply verification rules across the test XML files, to ensure that test authors are following team conventions. That will reduce the number of avoidable errors that usually get introduced into the test base.

We're just a customer. We don't have a special relationship with the company in any way.

The solution is quite good. I'd rate it overall an eight on a scale of ten.

I'd recommended it. One of the main things that's great is the excellent integration into the DevOps tool-chain and the reuse of code between SoapUI and LoadUI.

The product is a good solution for functional back end testing, but the price should be lower due to already mentioned problems, bugs. Use other product framework for small solutions, due to price/bugs. The advantage is that the product is handy for testers, user friendly; ability to use load, security tests or create mocks.

I think this is a very easy tool to use for automated tests to run in a CI environment. You don’t have to be a “hardcore” programmer to use the tool but to get the best from it you should have some interest in programming/scripting.
