"Object Repository Technology, which is a good mean to identify graphical components of the applications under test."
"Compared to other products, UFT One is better, faster, and more accurate."
"I like the Help feature in UFT One. For example, if you are navigating a particular window, where there are different options. One wouldn’t know the purpose of every option, but there is no need to search because that window contains a Help button. If you click on that Help button, it directly navigates to the respective help needed. VBScript is very easy to understand and easy to prepare scripts with minimal learning curve."

"As many of our products are moving from PC to mobile, the most important thing that this solution needs is mobile app support."
"The latest version has increased load time before testing can be run."
"They need to do a complete revamp so that even a non-technical person can manage the tool."
"I would like to have detailed description provided to test the cloud-based applications."
"We'd like it to have less scripting."
"Object identification has room for improvement, to make it more efficient."
"The overall design needs an entire overhaul. We prefer software designed to ensure the package isn't too loaded."
"Scripting has become more complex from a maintenance standpoint to support additional browsers."
"It should consume less CPU, and the licensing cost could be lower."
"Needs to improve the integration with the CI/CD pipeline (VSTS and report generation)."
"I would want to see a significant improvement in the tool's features. The most significant enhancements are support for panel execution and integration with DevSecOps."
