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.

Robust automation with reusable steps and seamless integration
The concept of reusable steps in Zeenyx AscentialTest has significantly enhanced our test automation efficiency. Encapsulating common actions into modular steps reduces redundancy in test scripts and ensures consistency across scenarios. This approach streamlines maintenance efforts, allowing updates to be applied universally, making our test suite more agile and adaptable to evolving project requirements. The concept of reusable steps is a key factor in maximizing reusability and maintainability in our test automation strategy. AscentialTest's object recognition in snapshots is a robust feature that goes beyond standard elements, even accurately identifying objects within Datawindows. This capability ensures precise interaction with various components of an application's interface, further enhancing the reliability and effectiveness of our automated tests.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The tool has the ability to integrate with various requirement management, test management, and version control tools."
"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."
"Though optimized and automated test generation is the core functionality, the product's integration with other tools sets it apart."
"This product helps with understanding the design tool for the test case generation without manual writing of test cases in Excel."
"I have been working with different vendors in my role, I can say without hesitation that the Zeenyx Support Staff are the best group I've worked with."
"Zeenyx AscentialTest provides excellent support for PowerBuilder applications, with very powerful and flexible object recognition, a highly visual drag and drop environment for creating application objects from snapshots, and tests that are easy and quick to manage and maintain."
"If you use the PowerBuilder application, do choose AscentialTest without thinking twice."
"It’s been really easy to automate the same application TestComplete struggled with, and I have been able to automate two of our key applications in just a few months, even without taking their training."
"Great support, powerful tool, easy enough for entry-level staff to use."
"It's been really easy to automate the same applications TestComplete struggled with."
"Customer Service: Zeenyx team provides a wonderful customer support for any kind of issues we face and they worked along with us and provided solutions as early as possible too."
"The most valuable feature of AscentialTest for us is that it fully supports PowerBuilder."
 

Cons

"We have limited widgets available in the tool to design UI 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."
"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."
"It would be helpful to have a feature in the tool's UI to map object locators within the system."
"Limitations are found to be primarily in the ux of the tool; for example when in doubt one often right clicks in an unfamiliar product to get unstuck, and AscentialTest lacks some of these fineries."
"The product can be improved a little bit with regards to the UI as the panels are too many."
"It would be better if the support for Web Tables and Siebel Tables are readily available and made more simpler as they are encountered quite often while automating the apps."
"I would like to see an improvement in the User Interface."
"Classes are not as object-oriented as I would like, but I am a programmer and not QA so I expect a lot."
"We did observe that aborting the test run of a test set in the middle of execution was taking a long time."
"The only thing I can't wait for is for Zeenyx to add automating Mobile apps."
"Streamlining the retrieval of results from individual test set runs would be beneficial."
