We have a major upgrade of the two key applications I automated. This will be the first time we have an automated regression to run.

I have undergraduate Computer Science students entering all of our tests and they have found it easy to master with minimal assistance from me. The savings from using entry-level programmers instead of experienced staff to code tests has more than covered the cost of AscentialTest.

Systems Manager at a consultancy with 1,001-5,000 employees

In conjunction with our team we have integrated Automated Regression in to our core Reinsurance Application to monitor expected results against nightly production and test environment results. As recently as this month the regression scripts identified some key issues in our key quarterly reporting. Invaluable. To give some idea of the complexity of our applications, our core Reinsurance application was developed as an in-house product but has been sold to five other major companies.

Sr. QA Engineer at a tech vendor with 5,001-10,000 employees

As a platform corporation a primary strategic goal is to develop coherent tests across platforms, and this is where Ascential Test shines. Our open source projects benefit from being harnessed from this central point of control, as the projects are incarnated in wpf clients, Docker containers and AWS back-ends, open source DBs and web browsers, with imminent migration to micro-services architectures and mobile extensions.

Both principals are veterans of the testing tool wars, and so are sensitive to refinements in the ui as it relates to tester workflows. They listen to feedback and enact it if it is congruent with their vision for the product, and they are committed to ux improvement. Their strategic commitment to supporting mobile devices in 2016 is an indication of their vision. There is a real sense of partnership when on-boarding with Zeenyx: you will not get left behind or have to eventually write off your testing assets, instead you will get a new version with many of your requested improvements.

We are a service-based company in India working for the retail industry in the US. Before we moved to AscentialTest from Silk Test, a regression suite of a massive 2300 test cases - having different modules of an application consisting of 20 Silk Test projects - were executed on Silk Test classic agent through plans in batches. This project had a lot of APIs and some unrecognized custom windows, which made the test execution difficult with partial automation and manual testing. It used to take 10 execution days. We migrated all these test cases into single project in AscentialTest. With Zeenyx support on APIs, all custom windows were recognized. The test set and Host Target feature helped us achieve the execution of the suite in three days.

Zeenyx AscentialTest is well known for data-driven testing with its inbuilt data tables, which help in having a single test run across multiple sets of data. The drag and drop feature to develop tests/plans has helped in executing the test much easier and faster. 

The regression suite was built much faster and helped in realizing our ROI within six months.

Senior Test Consultant at MatryxSoft Tech

We used AscentialTest tool for one of our clients, where we needed to automate their test cases where we had to compare two excel sheets which had huge data with respect to each cell. 

The application was built on PowerBuilder application. By using AscentialTest, we were able to automate the test scenarios with ease as each and every element were supported by AT and also the powerful path statements helped in identifying the element and the support from the AT team was excellent and saved a lot of time and effort which was required by manual tester

Productivity increased by almost 10 times after using AT for test automation as manually it was taking almost a day or three days (sometimes a week) effort to do data verification of expected and actual excel files with huge no of columns and rows (Approx 50 columns and 1000's of rows)

Zeenyx team did provide us with a very reliable support throughout the automation of Siebel as we were unable to find a good automation solution for an older version of Siebel app.
