We performed a comparison between CrossBrowserTesting and Katalon Studio based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Regression Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The ability to choose from many devices is the best feature."
"Each new session started with the live testing feature allows for a cleared browser and new experience to be able to not only see these attributes on the page clearly but also pass clean data."
"At the moment, all our deploys depend on results of automation. If the tests are failing, then we know that something is wrong at the early stages of development."
"The features that I find most useful and the ones that I use the most are local site testing, device and browser testing, and screenshots."
"I must acknowledge that the customer support has been A++ when I have run into problems."
"The CrossBrowserTesting Selenium API and live test features have greatly improved our team's ability to quickly and effectively perform QA."
"Record and Replay is the most used functionality for us, as we can record the test cases and play them on multiple combinations of platforms."
"Selenium Grid allows testing multiple platforms to insure functionality for most users."
"The solution is easy to learn."
"It is easy for a non-technical person to use and adopt."
"The best thing about the solution is that there is a record and playback functionality."
"The initial setup of Katalon Studio was easy."
"The most valuable features of Katalon Studio are its user-friendliness and the AI smart healing capabilities."
"It is good for API testing. It is also good for continuous integration testing. You can connect it to Jenkins."
"It supports multiple easy-to-learn languages."
"We can write code in Java and it is easy to link to other JARs that we find on the internet, which is very handy."
"Being able to test on real devices via the virtual connection is wonderful, but it can cause some lag and load time issues while testing."
"I have had quite a few issues trying to use a virtual machine to test our application on."
"It would be useful if we can run the live-testing test cases on multiple platforms at the same time, instead of waiting for one session to finish."
"A wider range of physical devices with more browser versions in the Selenium Grid would be great to insure users with out-of-date devices are able to interact with our sites."
"The "Getting Started" documentation for Selenium testing could be improved."
"There should be more detailed training on CrossBrowserTesting."
"Sometimes the testing is slow."
"Elements of 'real' mobile/tablet testing could be sped up."
"I can say that in my company, we struggle a lot with iOS automation."
"Currently, I'm the only one who can use it because I have a Mac. It is giving a hard time to my team members who are on Linux. My team members are using Linux, and Katalon doesn't support Linux very well. It keeps on crashing. It crashes and shuts down almost every time they save their work, so they are not able to use it. It should have good support for Linux. We don't know what the problem is. If the Katalon team can pick up this issue, it will be very helpful."
"Katalon doesn't support testing of hybrid applications. It's a limitation."
"Katalon Studio could improve having visual testing, but I think they're launching that feature very soon. We would like to see an increase in the usage of AI."
"The price of the solution is a bit high. It's one of the reasons we decided not to continue using the product."
"There could potentially be more reporting within the solution. We need more issue reports, for example."
"There is not much support offered for the free version, which is something that could be improved."
"Support options need improvement. It is sometimes hard to find a solution to any given problem, thus you are forced to use another solution."
