The main issue with Tricentis Tosca is its cost, which is very high. Although using Tosca can reduce the number of testers needed compared to open-source tools like Selenium, companies might still need to focus on resources. I would recommend Tricentis reduce the cost of its licenses. I rate the overall solution a ten out of ten as I am satisfied with it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"CucumberStudio aligns with our strategy for data-driven testing."
"The solution is stable."
"CucumberStudio aligns with our strategy for data-driven testing."
"The most valuable feature of CucumberStudio is its use of action words, which allows me to avoid writing test cases from scratch for the most common scenarios."
"The data table that helps in converting a single script to multiple test cases is very helpful."
"The URL is very useful, and it has a very good UI for deploying information of the scenarios created."
"The best thing is that a person without knowledge about the program can easily understand what happened in our testing process."
"CucumberStudio has a very user-friendly interface."
"The reporting is really nice."
"Very user-friendly and the low code automation is really helpful."
"The item that is different from all the other tools is that it's module based."
"The technical support is good, we were satisfied."
"The most valuable feature of Tricentis Tosca is it is a completely scriptless automation tool, which I liked a lot. They keep on continuously improving their tools, wherever we are facing any challenges they are able to provide a solution for it. It is easy to learn, everyone can easily read and understand what is happening with the scripts. Any business user or function tester can use the tool efficiently. This is a complete solution package."
"This solution is very easy to learn and any non-programmer or manual tester, with little experience in automation, can pick it up quite easily."
"It offers many features, such as risk-based testing and scenario creation using Kafka."
"The scriptless automation tool is one of the important features."
 

Cons

"I think it would be better if we could also do the reporting with CucumberStudio."
"CucumberStudio's API integration could be improved both in terms of reliability and design."
"I would like to see better customer support."
"Another kind of deployment might be useful, perhaps an option to install the tool in a local deployment."
"A key area for improvement is to revamp outdated components such as HipTest publisher."
"The reporting needs to be improved."
"A key area for improvement is to revamp outdated components such as HipTest publisher."
"The self-healing feature of Tricentis Tosca needs significant improvement. Currently, it is static and not dynamic."
"Parallel execution is not yet implemented for Tosca. This means you can't execute the same test case on multiple machines remotely."
"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."
"Tosca's reporting features could be better. Tricentis had a reporting tool called Analytics, but it didn't function properly after they reworked it. After that, they tried a new approach with key-tracing, and that didn't work."
"While the initial setup was straightforward, we required assistance with the configuration to ensure that everything was done correctly."
"There have been some setbacks because of upgrades. While Tosca has been around for a while, Tricentis has catered to smaller clients and I don't think they have done such a large, at-scale transition or transformation before or worked with a company like ours, which is doing an enterprise-wide transformation. When we go to their customer advisory-board meetings, upgrades have been an issue. They have been working a lot to make upgrades seamless."
"You need to spend much more time learning the tool and how to use it, compared to others."
"It needs better integration with JIRA."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The price of Tricentis Tosca is approximately Є10,000 for one license. However, it used to be much cheaper, but they changed their license structure. It used to be a structure where if you bought a license you would receive one year of free support and maintenance. Now they only have a yearly license, and that is expensive."
"Tricentis Tosca is an expensive tool and the licensing is not simple."
"Although the product is slightly more expensive than tools, its automation capabilities and reduced scripting needs justify the cost."
"The pricing and licensing of Tricentis Tosca were alright. Many customers look for end-to-end enterprise solutions, there were not many challenges with the pricing. However, the customers who are coming from Selenium or similar, feel they're paying a premium for this Tricentis Tosca license. If the right person is there for the implementation of the Tricentis Tosca, then it is one of the best tools in the market."
"They are probably more expensive than other comparable tools, but you also get the full suite of testing tools."
"Pricing could be better."
"If you are purchasing less than five licenses, then the pricing is high. On a scale from one to ten, with one being low and ten being high pricing, I would rate this solution at eight."
"Expensive, but for long-term projects, it is paying back."
