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.

Has transformed testing by reducing scripting effort and enhancing productivity with advanced features
The self-healing feature of Tricentis Tosca needs significant improvement. Currently, it is static and not dynamic. For example, if a button in an application changes, Tricentis Tosca should be smart enough to detect the change and still execute the script seamlessly. Improvements are needed to ensure it responds dynamically to changes in the application.

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."
"One notable feature is its ability to handle negative XPath healing processes. If one XPath fails, Tosca can utilize backup XPaths to ensure test cases do not fail due to locator issues, thereby focusing on identifying application-side issues, which is the ultimate goal."
"I would rate the scalability a nine out of ten. We have enterprise-level customers."
"The model-based scriptless automation is the most valuable feature because it needs less maintenance as compared to script-based automation."
"I am impressed with the product's script test."
"Tosca is a low-code no-code automation tool, allowing direct automation and reusability of test cases."
"It is easy to maintain and easy to automate. No coding skills are required to automate. It is also easy in terms of transferring knowledge and skills. Many of my team members shifted over the past one and a half years, and there was no big issue with respect to knowledge sharing. It is a good tool that enables me to re-automate my scripts and update my scripts as quickly as possible. Looking at the amount of rework and maintenance activity that we had done for our scripts, it might have been a nightmare with some other scripting tool."
"This tool has test data management capability along with test management."
"It's stable and reliable."
 

Cons

"The GUI and design could be improved."
"The product needs to improve its pricing. It also needs to improve the infrastructure and DEX agent setup."
"The product is not very stable when used with cloud storage. It is very hard to load the screen, making it difficult to use the tool in cloud storage."
"Security, UI, and basic performance improvements could be done to the product to enhance its use."
"Tricentis Tosca currently does not support any mobile testing and can be improved."
"I would like to see more implementation of AI on the self-healing aspect. That would be like the next step."
"With regard to areas of improvement, report customization should be easier. It would be good if Tosca could provide standard reports for at least 20 variants. At present, there are only three to four variants. The mobile engine needs to be faster and easier to use; it is a bit cumbersome. Also, the object identification in the mobile engine needs improvement. I would like to see easy-to-use customizations for reports in the next release."
"The document object model or some aspects of it has a bit of a learning curve."
"Not being able to mask test data in relation to testing data management, in my opinion, is also a limitation."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Tricentis Tosca is not expensive at all."
"The tool's pricing is lower than that of other automation tools."
"In terms of the licensing costs for Tricentis Tosca, we are spending more or less $70,000 per year. We have a very complex mechanism because there are some business users and some BI users, so the licensing structure is not simple, but support is included."
"We hired a consultant to figure out all the tools in our company and how they fit in our company before we purchased the solution."
"The price of the tool is a problem for a lot of Brazilian clients or Latino clients, as it is expensive. Where I work, if one is low price and ten is high price, I rate the tool's price as a ten out of ten."
"My understanding is that it's an expensive product, although I don't know the specifics with regards to pricing."
"Tosca is expensive. I don't see small and medium customers going for it. It's always large enterprises that have a big pocket. It is very expensive as compared to the other tools that we have in the market. They should reduce the price by half, and if they do that, they would do better business. From the competition perspective, other solutions are at a pretty similar level. UiPath is also very expensive. One thing that I always wanted was a short-term consumption license. With Tricentis, the biggest challenge is that you have to go for a minimum of one year license, and they also try to sell you a three-year license. It would be good if people can get a three-month or four-month consumption license."
"​It is an expensive tool compared to other test automation tools. It has a lot of advantages over other tools."
