Pros
"We find the front-end interface of this solution to be very user-friendly, meaning easy navigation even for novice users.""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.""The most valuable features are functional testing and the central repository that contains various scripts.""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""Has good automation and load-testing capabilities.""User friendly UI / Tree view to work with adding steps.""The solution is scalable.""Oracle Application Testing Suite's most valuable feature is it works very smoothly with all Oracle Java-based applications."
