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

"Once we upgraded to UFT Pro, it was an easy adoption, even though it's a commercial product, and it supports our approach in agile and DevOps deliveries really well."
"This is a good solution and I recommend it."
"The solution is very scalable."
"Since we started using the Quality Center for the integration of all Microsoft tools, things have been much easier for us."
"The fact that it is so easy to go between UFT with its large install base and LeanFT, whoever has used UFT will quite easily become productive with LeanFT, but with the added benefit of shifting left to move testing closer to the development cycle."
"When they've been working with it for a while and they see the complexity when you're doing real and tough test situations, then they see that this kind of tool is very, very good."
"The ability to evaluate live applications in our production environment for unusual behavior and determine problem areas and solutions is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"The technical support services are excellent."
"LambdaTest offers geolocation testing in automation, which is amazing!"
"The most valuable feature is the real-time testing, which helps you to test your website on more than two thousand combinations of browsers and operating systems."
"LambdaTest supports multiple platforms like iOS across different devices and enables real-time testing."
"LambdaTest has made our testing process less tedious with automated parallel testing."
"Without a doubt, LambdaTest is one of the big reasons behind our faster deployment and better team collaboration."
"The UI is pretty clean and easy to navigate, and we were able to figure it out very quickly."
"Geolocation testing is as straightforward as ticking checkboxes of browsers, operating systems, and countries."
 

Cons

"I'd like to not have to use Selenium. I'd like to be able to do headless scripting and not just always be UI serving."
"It's now too heavy and they should be making it faster."
"In the next release, I would like to see integration with different cloud-based tools such as Azure."
"Technical support is not good."
"Object definition and recognition need improvement, especially with calendar controls. I faced challenges with schedulers and calendars."
"The support for .NET Framework and Visual Studio in Micro Focus UFT Developer is currently limited. At present, only Visual Studio 2019 is supported, despite the release of a newer version (2022). Similarly, the tool only supports up to .NET Framework version 4.3.8, while there have been six newer versions released. This is an area that could be improved upon, particularly in the Windows environment."
"Technical support was not very good. We do reach out, but often they're unable to help."
"Stability depends on the company's infrastructure and end-to-end infrastructure. When I used the tool in my project, we had a big problem with many users using it simultaneously."
"Their smart testing module needs improvement."
"It would be much easier for us to read the test if they provided dashboard analytics."
"Responsive testing UI is a bit cluttered, whereas the LT browser is much better to use."
"Load flow compared to other stacks needs improvement."
"There is scope for improvement in service account usage, LDAP integration, and adapting new devices and features."
"We get logged out of the devices if there is some inactivity."
"It would be nice to have an API for visual regression testing."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 quite expensive and is priced per seat or in concurrent (or floating) licenses over a period of months."
"It is cheap, but if you take the enterprise license, it is valid for both software items."
"The price of the solution could be lowered. The cost is approximately $25 per year for a subscription-based license."
"The licensing is very expensive, so often, we don't have enough VMs to run all of our tests."
"The cost of this solution is a little bit high and we are considering moving to another solution."
"If I would rate it with one being inexpensive and ten being expensive, I would rate pricing an eight out of ten."
"The pricing is quite high compared to the competition."
"I used the product for free."
"It is affordable as compared to similar SaaS solutions."
"LambdaTest is on the cloud, offers both free and paid plans which start at $19 USD per month."
"The product can be described as an averagely-priced solution."
"From the customer side, LambdaTest is cheaper for big company usage and works fine as other similar applications."
"The pricing for LambdaTest is affordable, and one of the reasons we implemented it."
"It is free to start, which means you can actually see how it works and then take the decision to buy."
"The pricing could be made cheaper."
