User-friendly regression testing that is fast and offers good support
We have not yet explored this area in our testing. We plan to be ready for this phase next year. We are only doing a one or two-minute recording, next year it will be done for a year. Currently, I am the only user in our organization who is working with Basis Testimony. Once we have tested out the entire tool and we are satisfied, we plan to roll-out to the business for 10 to 20 users.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It takes less time to complete the regression testing; normally it will take three weeks and with this solution, we can shorten it to one week."
"It takes less time to complete the regression testing."
"It's allowed us to perform functional testing (to verify a specific action or function of code) for each product update."
"The solution’s AI capabilities cut down test creation time for mobile by at least 60 percent."
"The most valuable features are the API testing, the integration with DevOps and accessibility to people without a lot of technical skill."
"UFT is an expensive tool that can save you a lot of time and effort and provide great value for money if used correctly, but also turn out as ineffective related to value-for-money if used the wrong way."
"UFT is easy to use so the QA team is not required to have much programming skills."
"The most valuable feature of Micro Focus UFT One is you are able to use it with many other technologies. I have not had an instance where the solution was not able to automate or execute automation. I was able to use COBOL to manage some automation."
"It's not only web-based but also for backend applications; you can also do the integration of the applications."
"UFT has improved our ability to regression test, freeing up the test team to work only on the new portions of the software without having to worry that they are introducing new errors in other areas without knowing it."
 

Cons

"The GUI and design could be improved."
"Cost is the biggest issue with UFT. It is not cheap."
"The application can be buggy at times and takes up a lot of memory on your PC."
"It needs to be able to be used on Chrome, Firefox, and other browsers on Macs and not just Safari. That's a very key requirement for my organization."
"I'd like to see UFT integrated more with some of the open source tools like Selenium, where web is involved."
"There is a gap in technical support which is also part of our review. We've raised issues in the past, which have not been fixed in two years."
"Sometimes you need a little bit more, but then HP help us to find it as they're knowledgeable troubleshooters."
"The initial setup is complex."
"Needs to improve the integration with the CI/CD pipeline (VSTS and report generation)."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Compared to other tools in the market, UFT One is very competitive. The recent Covid pandemic situation also hit customer budgets significantly, so Micro Focus offered some discounted prices, which is definitely competitive."
"The pricing fee is good. If someone makes use of the solution once a day for a half hour then the fee will be more expensive. For continuous use and application of the solution to different use cases, the fee is average."
"It's a yearly subscription. There are no additional costs to the standard subscription."
"It's an expensive solution."
"The licensing cost is high. There are no additional costs to the standard license."
"The pricing of the product is an issue."
"The price is reasonable."
"The solution is priced reasonably for what features it is providing. However, it might be expensive for some."
