User-friendly integration with support for Visual Studio enhances GUI testing capabilities
OpenText UFT Developer is user-friendly and integrates well with Visual Studio. The support is excellent. It is easy to implement tests with OpenText UFT Developer. We primarily use it for GUI testing and testing web applications with another application. This is the main usage for us. We also integrate it with the N-unit Framework, and they work well together.

Cloud-based testing has simplified remote mobile validation and provides flexible device coverage
I was not impressed with how detailed their analytics and logs are from LambdaTest. The solution we were testing is being used because many of us are working from home. It was easy to implement because with a real phone, we have to bring a real phone to each person. Since three years ago, many employees have been working from home, so we were trying to find a solution for this challenge. We had no need to exploit the information for the analytics generated in the background. The purpose was simply to make it easy for our employees to access a phone. The downsides I noticed include that the pricing was very good, but the visual quality of the image sometimes suffers. The contrast on a real iPhone provides better contrast than with the cloud solution. The only aspect that was less favorable than on a real phone was the contrast of the color.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is very scalable."
"It is quite stable, and it has got very user-friendly features, which are important in terms of maintaining our scripts from a long-term perspective. It is very stable for desktop-based, UI-based, and mobile applications. Object repositories and other features are also quite good."
"One aspect that I like about Micro Focus UFT Developer is the ability to integrate it into a testing framework as a library."
"The most valuable features are the object repository."
"And I think all these parts together make it the best possible solution."
"LeanFT integrates with our developers work-flow, so our developers can now perform automation using familiar tools, programming language, and IDE, which helps get the whole team involved in test automation."
"The most valuable feature is the Object Model, where you can directly pull up the object as a global or a local."
"LeanFT's been very good."
"It’s good to see, now that we are using LambdaTest, we can run multiple tests on multiple VMs, saving us hours of testing time and the maintenance cost of local infrastructure."
"The UI is pretty clean and easy to navigate, and we were able to figure it out very quickly."
"LambdaTest supports multiple platforms like iOS across different devices and enables real-time testing."
"Automation and mobile testing have improved our efficiency."
"LambdaTest has helped me gain more customers."
"The primary feature that has significantly improved our test execution times is automation."
"Our test execution time was reduced to 16 mins from five hours when executed in parallel on multiple VMs. This has been extremely helpful!"
"The real devices feature is the most valuable feature for us."
 

Cons

"The issue with all the integration is that it can become very costly and expensive and we'd like to be able to recommend one single tool that will do it all."
"The solution could improve by working better with desktop applications and websites."
"Number one thing is we are an Oracle shop, so we do Oracle ERP testing, and that add-in from UFT, that technology is not in LeanFT right now."
"The price of the solution could be lowered."
"The pricing of the solution is high. It's more than $10,000 per floating license."
"Improvement is still needed for stability and performance."
"It would be improved by adding a drag-and-drop interface to help alleviate the coding."
"I think the one thing we're basically asking for should be JavaScript support, but I think they will start adding JavaScript support in the future."
"Their smart testing module needs improvement."
"We get logged out of the devices if there is some inactivity."
"The tool can improve its testing speed. Changing or switching to another mobile phone can be very slow on a real device."
"Mobile application testing will be an added benefit for us if LambdaTest implements this really soon."
"I didn't like the solution's technical support and how they communicated and tried to fix the issues of customers like me."
"There is scope for improvement in service account usage, LDAP integration, and adapting new devices and features."
"I've also had some issues with the speed of certain API calls and the rendering of data. For example, when I'm onboarding data, the process can be slow."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If I would rate it with one being inexpensive and ten being expensive, I would rate pricing an eight out of ten."
"It is quite expensive and is priced per seat or in concurrent (or floating) licenses over a period of months."
"The price of the solution could be lowered. The cost is approximately $25 per year for a subscription-based license."
"Its cost is a bit high. From the licensing perspective, I am using a concurrent license. It is not a seed license. It is something that I can use in our network. It can also be used by other users."
"It is cheap, but if you take the enterprise license, it is valid for both software items."
"The licensing is very expensive, so often, we don't have enough VMs to run all of our tests."
"The pricing is quite high compared to the competition."
"When we compare in the market with other tools that have similar features, it may be a little bit extra, but the cost is ten times less."
"It is 60% cheaper and there is no fuss in maintaining the lab, so we have more time to do the testing."
"The pricing could be made cheaper."
"LambdaTest is paid per execution."
"From the customer side, LambdaTest is cheaper for big company usage and works fine as other similar applications."
"The product can be described as an averagely-priced solution."
"The pricing for LambdaTest is affordable, and one of the reasons we implemented it."
"I used the product for free."
"This is an affordable product."
