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.

End-to-end regression automation has accelerated delivery and now secures complex test data
I think Tosca can be improved, particularly in AI capabilities because right now Tosca does not have any strong API capabilities. It has some AI features in the newer version, but many organizations have not adopted these due to version-specific problems, as some are still using older versions. From an AI point of view, they can enhance reliability since the world is moving towards AI, and every tool must be integrated. While Tosca has made attempts, I have not used them and they are not widely adopted, so they are stuck in the testing phase in my organization. I would also mention that while I am currently using Tosca Mobile, the loading part and connectivity issues need improvement. They should better integrate AI features that are already present but not widely used across many organizations. Reliability on the AI aspect needs enhancement for practical application. From the perspective of governance and security, I believe Tosca can develop its own LLM or leverage third-party LLMs while maintaining security and risk management regarding client data. Many companies prefer using Tosca due to data security, which is crucial. An in-house LLM could significantly enhance its debugging power and provide helpful solutions upon test case failure.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Because everyone can create test cases, not only the quantity but also the quality is improved, which results in less defects in production."
"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."
"The BPT framework is very modular."
"The solution is quite stable with SAP. It's nice. I use it extensively."
"ROI is pretty good as the approach of framework allows virtually everyone to take part in designing test cases."
"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."
"This solution is very helpful to me, and I use it to execute my use cases without a manual interface."
"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."
"Testcase design is most valuable, as it has helped in two different aspects, storing the test data in one place, and deciding how many test cases are needed for a given scenario using one of the inbuilt algorithms, thereby ensuring the test coverage."
"We did a full-blown POC, it was super successful and we were able to automate a large number of our scripts and save a lot of time and also automate a lot of our testing."
"The product helps us to create very accurate test cases."
"The initial setup isn't too difficult."
"The use of automation is most valuable."
"Improves the software quality in production by finding more defects with automated test sets, before transporting developments to production."
"Tosca lets you jot down your requirements, design test cases, automate and analyse your test results within one GUI."
"Every second week we release a candidate, and from two weeks of hard manual testing, we are testing now only a few days (four to five), the new fixed tickets and running in parallel the regression."
 

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."
"Initial releases we used of the product (v12) were a little unstable, but with the release of v12.01, we had no further issues."
"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 very easier to understand it 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."
"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."
"Test execution speed has been my biggest concern."
"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."
"To be honest, technical support is not that great."
"The product, at times, does not recognize objects, especially in web applications."
"Exploratory testing engine needs improved element recognition (at lease in JAVA Swing)"
"The record and play is still a new feature and while SAP has been added to the latest version, it is still lacking usefulness for common repository setups."
"Sometimes new features do not work as shown on slides, in the first release."
"The support from Tricentis Tosca needs to be improved. I have not been happy with their support."
"Running the regression – if multiple lists are executed at once or if a list contains 200+ tests, it’s a pain to stop the execution."
"Do not buy this tool if you simply need a driver for your automation, as open source solutions (e.g. Selenium), or technology specific solutions are more suitable here."
"It would be of great help if they can fix the loading or performance issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"There are different types of licenses: enterprise or professional. The cost varies."
"The tool is quite expensive."
"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."
"There is an annual cost for Tricentis."
"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
"The price of the tool is a problem for a lot of Brazilian clients or Latino clients, as it is expensive. Where I work, if one is low price and ten is high price, I rate the tool's price as a ten out of ten."
"The pricing of the solution comes as part of our Tosca bundle."
"A yearly license costs around 20,000 euros."
