We performed a comparison between OpenText UFT One and Visual Studio Test Professional based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Functional Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The ease of record and playback as well as descriptive programming are the most valuable features of UFT (QTP)."
"Micro Focus UFT One gives us integration capabilities with both API and GUI components. I like the user interface. It doesn't require that much skill to use and has automatic settings, which is useful for users who don't know what to select. It also has dark and light themes."
"The shared repositories can be used throughout all testing which makes jobs easier."
"The solution has good out-of-the-box protocols."
"The solution is easy to integrate with other platforms."
"The stop automation is a great feature."
"The inside object repository is nice. We can use that and learn it through the ALM connection. That's a good feature. The reporting and smart identification features are also excellent."
"The initial setup is relatively easy."
"The stability has always been very good."
"It is a very common and strong product. A lot of support is available for this product."
"Visual Studio Test Professional is a very scalable solution."
"We are satisfied with technical support. Communicating with them is very simple. We also have a lot of online resources to check and to study and to train our team with. The documentation is very clear and readily available."
"The initial setup is easy. It's easy to configure."
"Visual Studio Test Professional's most valuable feature is the rich IDE for doing code and test development."
"The ability to quickly make your own components has been valuable."
"I was satisfied with the support given by customer service."
"The solution does not have proper scripting."
"We used to run it as a test suite. Micro Focus provides that in terms of a test management tool as ALM, but when we think of integrating with a distributed version control system, like Jenkins, there isn't much integration available. That means we need to make use of external solutions to make it work."
"Sometimes UFT can take a while to open and sometimes will run slower than expected."
"It could work with more browsers other than Internet Explorer, and could better handle new things like Ext JS."
"Technical support could be improved."
"Micro Focus UFT One could benefit from creating modules that are more accessible to non-technical users. Without a developer background or at least basic knowledge of VBScript, using Micro Focus UFT One may not be feasible for everyone. This is something that Micro Focus, now owned by OpenText, should consider in order to cater to business professionals as well. While Micro Focus UFT One does have a recording function, it still requires a certain level of IT proficiency to create effective automation, which may be challenging for those outside of the technical field."
"It doesn't support Telerik UI controls and we are currently looking for a patch for this."
"One area for improvement is its occasional slowness."
"It could be available for multiple platforms and other operating systems like Mac with a native port."
"Visual Studio Test Professional should include more automation."
"Sometimes, the product is too complex to use."
"The database administration could be better; you should be able to choose new tools with the development environment in Visual Studio. It could be easier to use."
"Visual Studio Test Professional could improve by having better integration with external databases."
"Visual Studio Test Professional is a little pricey."
"The documentation is limited."
"The price is reasonable, but it's not the best."
