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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Though optimized and automated test generation is the core functionality, the product's integration with other tools sets it apart."
"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."
"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."
"Conformiq integrates well with various automation tools and auto-generates between 60% and 80% of the automation scripts."
"TFS is more stable and more scalable."
"The tool's installation is straightforward."
"The most valuable features of TFS are the test plans, as we can reproduce reusable test plans in test automation and we have a lot of queries, making this feature very useful."
"TFS is a good product and you can continue working with it."
"What I like the most is that you can set permissions on just one folder."
"Virtually immeasurable, the low cost of the product is nothing compared to the productivity improvements it brings."
"Once TFS is installed, there are no major issues."
"The scrum template to manage our development process, as well as the continuous build and release functionality."
 

Cons

"It would be helpful to have a feature in the tool's UI to map object locators within the system."
"Improvements on the List item widget and Table widget are needed."
"I would like to see the output data optionally used as input for the model, as further action in the flow."
"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."
"We have limited widgets available in the tool to design UI flow."
"It is very difficult to delete work items from the database."
"Sometimes we feel that it need more CPU, and RAMs on TFS server, either we implemented the hardware with the product minimum requirements."
"TFS is scalable with different Microsoft tools for test management but it is not scalable with other third-party tools."
"The solution's server for deployment needs to be improved."
"I understand Microsoft is phasing out TFS in favor of Git, so I would steer anyone interested in TFS to look into Git."
"The dashboard needs more enhancements."
"They can improve the stability and merging features, especially with SSIS."
"Not all of the functionality, which is exposed by the command line interface (tf.exe) is available in the Visual Studio GUI."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I am not in a position to comment on the licensing terms, as we are talking about an enterprise arrangement."
"We pay for the license yearly."
"It is pretty expensive compared to other project management tools."
"It is an expensive solution."
"You will need to obtain server and account licenses."
"I was working with the engineering team, and that was not under my umbrella. From what I can remember, its license was yearly. They had the licenses on a per-user basis, and they included MTM."
"The pricing is reasonable at this time."
"Use the Microsoft recommended “seat-based” licensing model. This allows a single developer with multiple machines to consume only one client license."
