Helpful solution that enables us to execute our use cases
There's only one thing that I think needs improvement. When I started off using this solution, I used the Google search engine to learn how to use the tool. I would also check with my colleagues who have a lot of knowledge about it. Selenium has fields of information available. If you click on that field there will be an explanation about how to use the tool. It will be a lot easier to understand if Micro Focus included this feature. It is easy to find with the search button, but it would be a great help to the users who are new to this tool.

Has supported faster test execution and increased flexibility while offering room to improve support responsiveness
Reducing the levels of support is something they could continue to improve. They tend to have an entry-level person that may not be as familiar with the product that fields the calls, which creates another day of delay to get to the level that's needed. This is a common practice across most companies where you call, you get the entry-level person, and then they work their way up to help screen calls so that they are more focused.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We can now take test automation through the entire business process -- testing web service availability before automated test packs start, sending and retrieving data via web-services and control of all web service testing in a single tool, along with the GUI testing of business processes across a multitude of platforms from java web through to AS400 green screen terminal apps."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that even a nontechnical tester, like a functional tester or a business analyst, can use it once the components are ready."
"ROI is pretty good as the approach of framework allows virtually everyone to take part in designing test cases."
"Because everyone can create test cases, not only the quantity but also the quality is improved, which results in less defects in production."
"The big difference with BPT over conventional frameworks with which I have worked is that BPT allows me to separate test development from automation development."
"The BPT framework is very modular."
"The solution is quite stable with SAP. It's nice. I use it extensively."
"This solution is very helpful to me, and I use it to execute my use cases without a manual interface."
"The most valuable features are the API testing, the integration with DevOps and accessibility to people without a lot of technical skill."
"The scalability of Micro Focus UFT One is good."
"Micro Focus UFT is a good product in my opinion; I can say it's a stable system and it's a legacy, and we have been using it for a long time."
"It's not only web-based but also for backend applications; you can also do the integration of the applications."
"It's a fine solution with good out-of-the-box protocols."
"The high-level security, high standard and compatible SAP are great."
"This tool is awesome for automation even though it is expensive."
"The UFT tool can be such a huge boon to a testing organization that can commit to its use."
 

Cons

"Technical support lacks efficiency and all they do is to move in circles by opening new tickets and all the related stuffs without any intention of solving the real problem."
"To be honest, technical support is not that great."
"Initial releases we used of the product (v12) were a little unstable, but with the release of v12.01, we had no further issues."
"The only one I can really think of is speed to test execution."
"The solution shouldn't be so tightly integrated with the ALM tool that they have. It should have its own base rather than the repository."
"Test execution speed has been my biggest concern."
"There's only one thing that I think needs improvement. When I started off using this solution, I used the Google search engine to learn how to use the tool."

"There were some issues with deployment and the integration into Solution Manager."
"It’s in the middle and not always 100% reliable."
"Scripting has become more complex from a maintenance standpoint to support additional browsers."
"The scripting language could be improved. They're currently using Visual Basic, but I think that people need something more advanced, like Python or Java."
"The AI feature needs improvement. For banking applications, we input formatted text from documents, but the AI feature is recognizing three fields as one field, e.g., for a phone number, it puts all 10 digits in the international code or country code. Then, the script fails."
"Jumping to functions is supported from any Action/BPT Component code, but not from inside a function library where the target function exists in another library file. Workaround: Select search entire project for the function."
"There could be improvements in report export features similar to SmartBear."
"I’d like to see them improve the number of objects recognized without customization, similar to TestComplete by SmartBear."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The tool's price is high."
"The way the pricing model works is that you pay a whole boatload year one. Then, every year after, it is around half or less. Because instead of paying for the new product, you are just paying for the support and maintenance of it. That is probably one of the biggest things that I hear from most people, even at conferences, "Yeah, I would love to use UFT One, but we don't have a budget for it.""
"The licensing and pricing model is confusing."
"The pricing fee is good. If someone makes use of the solution once a day for a half hour then the fee will be more expensive. For continuous use and application of the solution to different use cases, the fee is average."
"OpenText UFT One is a very expensive solution."
"It's an expensive solution."
"It's a yearly subscription. There are no additional costs to the standard subscription."
"There are no additional costs involved apart from the standard license."
