We performed a comparison between OpenText UFT One, Selenium HQ, and Tricentis Flood based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Perforce and others in Functional Testing Tools."On a scale of one to ten, I would give OpenText UFT One a 10 because it is a reliable product, it works, it's as good or better than similar solutions especially because you get technical support from real people. Additionally, upgrades are always provided on a consistent basis."
"It is easy to automate and new personnel can start learning automation using UFT One. You don't have to learn any scripting."
"The ease of record and playback as well as descriptive programming are the most valuable features of UFT (QTP)."
"It's not only web-based but also for backend applications; you can also do the integration of the applications."
"Hidden among the kitchen sink of features is a new Data Generation tool called the Test Combinations Generator."
"The scalability of Micro Focus UFT One is good."
"The most valuable feature is that it is fast during test execution, unlike LoadRunner."
"Being able to automate different applications makes day-to-day activities a lot easier."
"There is a supportive community around it."
"I have found using IDE and Cucumber framework is good."
"Due to its popularity, you can find pretty much any answer in open discussions from the community."
"Selenium HQ has a lot of capabilities and is compatible with many languages."
"I like that it is a robust and free open source. There is a lot of community support available, and there are a lot of developers using them. There's good community support."
"Some of the most valuable features of this solution are open-source, they have good support, good community support, and it supports multiple languages whether you use C-Sharp or not. These are some of the most important benefits."
"The most valuable feature of Selenium HQ is it provides support for third-party tools, such as screenshots, and automates Windows-based applications."
"It has helped to complete tests in less time, which would not be possible relying on manual testing only."
"You can utilize this tool on the cloud, and also access application on-premises. That is a very good part of the solution."
"Their technical support is awesome."
"The most valuable feature is the support for Java, where we can quickly code what we need."
"The UA objects are sometimes hard to recognize, so the coverage should be increased. Open-source alternatives have a broad scope. Also, it's sometimes difficult to make connections between two of the components in the UFT mobile center. It should be easier to set up the wireless solution because we have to set both. We directly integrate Selenium and APM, so we should try to cover all the features they have in APM and Selenium with the UFT mobile."
"The overall design needs an entire overhaul. We prefer software designed to ensure the package isn't too loaded."
"I'd like to see test case-related reports included in the solution."
"The product doesn't provide free training for the basic features."
"Micro Focus UFT One could benefit from creating modules that are more accessible to non-technical users. Without a developer background or at least basic knowledge of VBScript, using Micro Focus UFT One may not be feasible for everyone. This is something that Micro Focus, now owned by OpenText, should consider in order to cater to business professionals as well. While Micro Focus UFT One does have a recording function, it still requires a certain level of IT proficiency to create effective automation, which may be challenging for those outside of the technical field."
"I'd like to see UFT integrated more with some of the open source tools like Selenium, where web is involved."
"They need to reduce the cost because it is pretty high. It's approximately $3,000 per user."
"They should include AI-based testing features."
"Selenium could offer better ways to record and create scripts. IDE is available, however, it can be improved."
"The initial setup was difficult."
"It is not easy to make IE plus Selenium work good as other browsers. Firefox and Chrome are the best ones to work with Selenium."
"The solution does not offer up enough information in regards to personality testing."
"You need to have experience in order to do the initial setup."
"The reporting part can be better."
"It would be better if we could use it without having the technical skills to run the scripting test."
"It would be very helpful to be able to write scripts in a GUI, rather than depend so heavily on the command line."
"The performance of the tool needs to improve."
"We used an implementation strategy to deploy the solution, not because of the tools, but mainly because of the scripting part of the tool."
"The solution is quite immature, it is not in an optimal state."
