Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Katalon Studio and others in Regression Testing Tools."It is compatible with all sorts of Dark Net applications. Its coverage is very good."
"Test automation is most valuable because it saves a lot of time."
"The most valuable feature is the UI component tester."
"IBM Rational Functional Tester is very contextual."
"The most valuable feature of Selenium HQ is the ability to configure a lot of automated processes."
"For me, the most valuable feature of Selenium lies in its ability to help us find elements quickly. Apart from that, the driver interface is really useful, too. When we implement the Selenium driver interface, we can easily navigate through all of the pages and sections of an app, including performing things like clicking, putting through SendKeys, scrolling down, tagging, and all the other actions we need to test for in an application."
"The most valuable feature of Selenium is how easy it is to automate."
"Selenium HQ's most valuable feature is picking up and entering values from web pages."
"Its biggest advantage is that it is very customizable."
"Since Selenium HQ has multiple plug-ins, we can use it with multiple tools and multiple languages."
"Selenium HQ has a lot of capabilities and is compatible with many languages."
"The initial setup is straightforward. Deployment took about seven months."
"I face no challenges or stability issues."
"Image recognition: It has allowed us to automate a GUI section of our product which involves drawing different topologies."
"The most valuable features of Tricentis Tosca are the Salesforce scanning. There are two scanning for Salesforce applications. There is Salesforce scanning and normal application scanning. Object identification has been really useful in Tricentis Tosca."
"Multiple scanning engines to automate many different applications."
"The most valuable features of Tricentis Tosca are the ease of use, you do not need to program if you do not want to."
"It's a simple tool, particularly in terms of system testing. You can also convert and automate using Tricentis Tosca with ease."
"It's been very helpful to have connectivity with mobile. The tool also identifies some of the actual changes from the recordings on the actual testing suite. That is something that I really like."
"The model-based scriptless automation is the most valuable feature because it needs less maintenance as compared to script-based automation."
"The latest version has increased load time before testing can be run."
"As many of our products are moving from PC to mobile, the most important thing that this solution needs is mobile app support."
"If the solution is running on Linux, there are some issues around application compatibility."
"They need to do a complete revamp so that even a non-technical person can manage the tool."
"I have found that at times the tool does not catch the class features of website content correctly. The product's AWS configuration is also hard."
"Selenium has been giving us failures sometimes. It is not working one hundred percent of the time when we are creating elements. They need to improve the stability of the solution."
"There should be standardized frameworks to build automation."
"If the test scenarios are not subdivided correctly, it is very likely that maintenance will become very expensive and re-use is unlikely."
"We can only use Selenium HQ for desktop applications which would be helpful. We are only able to do online based applications."
"When we upgrade the version, some features are missing. I want the product to include some AI capabilities."
"You need to have experience in order to do the initial setup."
"I would like to see a library of bomb files with an automated process and integration with Jenkins and Slack."
"The integration with mobile testing could be useful."
"Setup wasn't that straightforward; it was more complex. It all depends on the environment, because there were a lot of errors on our applications. Therefore, it wasn't an easy setup for us."
"They need to improve on the reports after the execution of automation tests, since all the current organizations are looking for detailed graphical reports."
"In Tosca, I see that there are no user guides."
"A disadvantage of Tricentis Tosca is that you have to customize it according to your need, during the early stages of the software, particularly during upstream testing, before system and unit testing."
"Making it more stable would be good because we get around 90% stability."
"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."
"The UI does not have the option of automating the scroll bars."
