Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Perforce and others in Functional Testing Tools."We like that we don't need a separate management tool. This is a good feature. It also has an inbuilt performance tool which is on Flash. It has very good record and playback feature as well. The inspection tool is also very good. Overall, since it comes with all the three packages, it's very good."
"User friendly UI / Tree view to work with adding steps."
"OpenScript has many features that make it useful, including the ability to record and playback."
"I like the functional testing. There's a product inside OATS called OLT, Oracle Load Testing. You can do the load testing without depending on any other tool"
"The graphics are very intuitive and it's very easy to get scale of development."
"The most valuable feature is the object identification feature."
"We find the front-end interface of this solution to be very user-friendly, meaning easy navigation even for novice users."
"Oracle Application Testing Suite's most valuable feature is it works very smoothly with all Oracle Java-based applications."
"Good use in Agile workshops, where the person needs to conceptualize the tests before the developer provides the complete application interface."
"The tool's most valuable feature is Tosca Commander."
"With one click, it will scan all the elements on the screen, so that the user can select the required elements for automation tests."
"Tricentis Tosca is well integrated with other products like Jira."
"It's been very helpful to have connectivity with mobile. The tool also identifies some of the actual changes from the recordings on the actual testing suite. That is something that I really like."
"The scalability is a valuable feature of Tricentis Tosca."
"The most valuable feature of Tricentis Tosca is it is a completely scriptless automation tool, which I liked a lot. They keep on continuously improving their tools, wherever we are facing any challenges they are able to provide a solution for it. It is easy to learn, everyone can easily read and understand what is happening with the scripts. Any business user or function tester can use the tool efficiently. This is a complete solution package."
"This tool has test data management capability along with test management."
"AscentialTest's object recognition in snapshots is a robust feature that goes beyond standard elements, even accurately identifying objects within Datawindows."
"The most valuable feature of AscentialTest for us is that it fully supports PowerBuilder."
"It’s been really easy to automate the same application TestComplete struggled with. I have been able to automate two of our key applications in just a few months. I haven’t even taken their training."
"If you use the PowerBuilder application, do choose AscentialTest without thinking twice."
"Lacks patches for new OS systems and doesn't work on a Mac."
"I would like to see better dashboards."
"It needs to be compatible with all browsers."
"Licensing policies could be more intuitive."
"If there's a feature we want in OATS that's missing and we report that to Oracle, it takes a long time."
"Oracle Application Testing Suite could improve by offering desktop-based application automation. It is lacking in this area at the moment."
"To provide test automation support for other products like SAP, Windows and Java Applications when it comes to Functional Test Automation testing."
"The pathfinding at times is slow when we are using it. The tool's performance can be improved."
"The solution is expensive."
"The product needs to improve its pricing. It also needs to improve the infrastructure and DEX agent setup."
"I would like to see better integration with other testing tools."
"The solution should work with the Linux platform. Right now, it only runs on Windows."
"Very difficult to get information about licensing costs."
"They need to improve on the reports after the execution of automation tests, since all the current organizations are looking for detailed graphical reports."
"A disadvantage of Tricentis Tosca is that you have to customize it according to your need, during the early stages of the software, particularly during upstream testing, before system and unit testing."
"With regard to areas of improvement, report customization should be easier. It would be good if Tosca could provide standard reports for at least 20 variants. At present, there are only three to four variants. The mobile engine needs to be faster and easier to use; it is a bit cumbersome. Also, the object identification in the mobile engine needs improvement. I would like to see easy-to-use customizations for reports in the next release."
"I would like to see an improvement in the User Interface."
"Classes are not as object-oriented as I would like, but I am a programmer and not QA so I expect a lot."
"The only thing I can't wait for is for Zeenyx to add automating Mobile apps."
"Streamlining the retrieval of results from individual test set runs would be beneficial."
