Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The real devices feature is the most valuable feature for us.""LambdaTest easily integrates with leading project management, bug tracking, and CI-CD tools like Jira, Asana, Jenkins, Circle CI, and more.""The slow nature of a cloud platform was compensated with parallel testing, and now we are able to finish our testing job faster than it was before COVID.""Without a doubt, LambdaTest is one of the big reasons behind our faster deployment and better team collaboration.""Our test execution time was reduced to 16 mins from five hours when executed in parallel on multiple VMs. This has been extremely helpful!""Stability-wise, I have not experienced any downtime or other performance issues.""In case something goes wrong at LambdaTest end, the Support team is extremely responsive to analyze any platform-related issues.""It is a scalable solution."

Cons
"It would be nice to have an API for visual regression testing.""The scalability is good with Amazon, but IBM had some issues.""The analytics over the automation dashboard can be more intuitive.""I feel that the automated screenshot testing takes a little longer on MacOS sometimes.""You cannot perform native-app testing, as they offer simulation for web testing only.""I think Lambdatest is a valuable tool for our team and things that have room for improvement would be mobile app testing, as it can be an important addition to the tool.""Improvements on a platform need to happen on a timely basis...There should be some new features coming up or some performance improvisation over a period of time.""I would like to see all of the features available in the freemium plan so that I can test them."

More LambdaTest Cons →

"Reports could be customized and more descriptive according to the user's or company's requirements.""Reporting facilities can be better.""The feedback that we received from the DevOps of our organization was that the tool was a little heavy from the transformation perspective.""Enabling/disabling an optional element of an XML request is only possible if a data source (e.g., Excel sheet) is connected to the test. Otherwise, the option is not available at all in the drop-down menu.""Tuning the tool takes time because it gives quite a long list of warnings.""Parasoft SOAtest has an internal refresh function where you can refresh the software to show the changes you’ve made in your projects. Unfortunately this function does not work properly, because it often does not show the changes after you’ve hit te refresh button a few times.""UI testing should be more in-depth.""The product is very slow to start up, and that is a bit of a problem, actually."
