Technical Architect at Hexaware Technologies Limited
Easy to set up, integrates well with other tools, and maintains traceability in STLC process
There is room for improvement, including the following: * We have limited widgets available in the tool to design UI flow. We would like to see other frequently used widgets like spin boxes, sliders, etc. * The table widget options such as display tables, modify tables, and select rows, should be enhanced. * It would be helpful to have a feature in the tool's UI to map object locators within the system. This will help to maintain automation scripts, keeping them in synchronization with Conformiq models. * Currently, we don't have an integration with the test data management tool. Having this feature will help for generating and maintaining test data.

Provides quick test management for agile workflows but lacks customization for reporting and dashboards
The analytics and reporting capabilities in TestRail are not very extensive and tailorable. This doesn't make it very suitable for enterprise level programs. With OpenText, you have a lot of flexibility. I'm talking about the old version of ALM, the desktop client, which I used when it was still Micro Focus ALM. It has a tremendous ability to generate different types of reports. You can build different graphs, have Word document format, Excel format, or write your own Excel queries and incorporate that into your own reporting. TestRail has one type of format. If you want to generate a test summary report, there is basically only one format that you can use. You can't add your own components. You can choose which portions of your test results you want to include by selecting certain sections, but you don't have freedom to add and remove sections yourself. It's predefined and all that you can do is just take out the ones that you don't want. It is usable, but it's not tailorable, it's not configurable, it just gives you the bare minimum. It depends on what you use the tool for. If you want to use TestRail for enterprise-level waterfall projects with traditional reporting and a lot of analytics, it's not good enough because the analytics, dashboards, and reporting are not really there. However, if you use it for agile and you want quick and easy with very simple functionality, then it's very good because it's simple to use. For agile use cases, it's great and you don't need more than that. But if you are looking for an enterprise tool or waterfall project with large programs, even the enterprise version is not sufficient. There's no significant difference from the basic version. The only thing that you really get is the ability to have multiple project reporting, but the reporting itself is limited. There are no configurable dashboards. You can report across multiple projects, which is great, but the type of reports that you can run are limited to the current set of built-in reports. That's not good enough for enterprise level with multiple project and large programs. You want multiple reports across multiple projects and you want the tailorability and configurability of having dashboards and analytics, which TestRail is weak on for the enterprise level.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Conformiq generates a unique and optimized set of test cases, maintains them to the current application version by removing those for obsolete functionality, and, with proper integration to the automation framework, has enabled in-release and in-sprint automation for us."
"The tool has the ability to integrate with various requirement management, test management, and version control tools."
"This product helps with understanding the design tool for the test case generation without manual writing of test cases in Excel."
"Though optimized and automated test generation is the core functionality, the product's integration with other tools sets it apart."
"Conformiq integrates well with various automation tools and auto-generates between 60% and 80% of the automation scripts."
"TestRail has made it possible for our large team around the globe to more easily create, manage, and monitor test execution."
"Reliable and stable. It is important that TestRail be up and running 24/7 as we have users around the world using it."
"The integration with Jira and the ability for extra configurations are the most valuable features."
"The biggest advantage of using TestRail is its simplicity and intuitive interface."
"The ability to time test runs gives the tester the ability to compare calculated times to actual times it takes for a test case to run."
"It's very easy to use and simple with a low level of complexity. There are pros and cons with complex tools, but the advantage of TestRail is that it fits in really well with an agile life cycle."
"It is a centralized solution for whoever is working in a project; they are able to see which user story is tagged to which test case and what the result is, how many test cases were written for a particular user story, and what the status is, and this can all be tracked easily."
"Integration with Confluence and JIRA."
 

Cons

"I would like to see the output data optionally used as input for the model, as further action in the flow."
"Improvements on the List item widget and Table widget are needed."
"Even though the 4.1 version is a far-improved version from its earlier avatars, the performance of test generation is still an issue on real-time models we have."
"It would be helpful to have a feature in the tool's UI to map object locators within the system."
"We have limited widgets available in the tool to design UI flow."
"I have faced some issues with the integration between TestRail and Jira, which haven't been permanently resolved yet."
"It would be nice to have a description section when creating the test scenario itself so I can indicate what the configuration should be."
"The TestRail API to integrate reporting of automated tests is complete, but requires many requests to identify the appropriate entry."
"Customer support could be enhanced. All the support is provided via chat and emails. Sometimes, you really need to speak to a person, and arranging such calls is not easy."
"Their customer support could be improved. Sometimes we struggle with that. It could be faster. Whenever we raise any query, they get back to you but the turnaround time is very slow."
"TestRail is a strong tool overall, but there are several areas where it could be better."
"TestRail by Gurock could improve by adding a defect management module tool. It would add a lot of value if I want to install it and I don't have Jira or an isolating team. For example, if I am providing a service it's separated from the development team, it then would be better to have defect management included with the test management. However, as it is now I need to be integrated with Jira or another defect management tool to complete the testing process."
"The analytics and reporting capabilities in TestRail are not very extensive and tailorable. This doesn't make it very suitable for enterprise level programs."
