Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 18, 2024

Worksoft Certify and Oracle Application Testing Suite compete in the test automation category. Worksoft Certify seems to have the upper hand with its extensive features and SAP support, while Oracle Testing Suite excels in load and performance testing, particularly in Oracle ERP contexts.

Features: Worksoft Certify provides automatic test execution without scripts, seamless end-to-end validation, and SAP support with parameter-driven actions and content merge. Oracle Application Testing Suite's strengths lie in load and performance testing using OpenScript, supported by Oracle Test Manager and Oracle Functional Test, proving beneficial in Oracle ERP contexts.

Room for Improvement: Worksoft Certify could improve in handling complex loops and upgrades, web automation, object identification, and integration capabilities. Oracle Application Testing Suite needs enhancement in its limited support for web and non-Oracle applications, installation process, reporting utilities, cross-browser support, and user-friendly dashboards.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Worksoft Certify deploys across on-premises, hybrid, and public cloud, but feedback on customer service responsiveness is mixed. Oracle Application Testing Suite primarily supports on-premises and hybrid deployment, with generally more responsive technical support. Both products benefit from community and technical support forums.

Pricing and ROI: Worksoft Certify's higher pricing aligns with its rich features, offering substantial ROI through automation, ideal for large enterprises. Oracle Application Testing Suite is priced competitively, often offered at reduced rates for Oracle customers, promoting strong ROI despite Worksoft's higher upfront costs.

Requires little maintenance, is stable, and easy to deploy

Oracle Application Testing Suite can improve by covering more browsers as compared to other solutions because they're considering the Edge browser as well, but the solution is working on different Windows operating platforms. For example, in our current Windows 2012 R2 server, if I want to automate the Edge browser, I need to upgrade that particular Windows to Windows 10.1 or some other Windows platform, because it's not supported in Windows 2012 feature. That is an issue. If cross-browsers can be incorporated, then support should be provided. There should be a single operating system where everything can be incorporated. I have faced issues with some indexing items. For example, the solution is able to derive some properties from the screen, such as button locations or text locations, but there are some elements, for example, unnamed buttons or text, where there is no name or ID or any other identifying information. Indexing doesn't always work, and we have to go to those elements manually and inspect them to determine their class, and then input that information into the system.

WorkSoft Certified Automation Engineer at Qualesce

Automation has delivered strong ROI with AI-driven test prioritization and parallel reporting

The best feature of Worksoft Certify is the automatic report generation. Unlike traditional tools like Selenium or Java-based frameworks where reporting often requires custom coding, Certify handles this natively. We are currently utilizing the 14.5 version, which has modernized these capabilities, though we frequently manage backward compatibility for clients still running on the 12.x version series.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"OATS provides the functionality to institute a corporate-wide standardized method and approach for all types of application testing."

"Overall, since it comes with all the three packages, it's very good."

"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"

"This product can facilitate the lowering of test execution times for operational people, as the bulk of the repeating test steps can be taken away by automating the EBS regression set in OpenScript every release."

"It helped in running performance testing cycles and identifying the bottlenecks of the application, helping our clients to run their application successfully and smoothly."

"The graphics are very intuitive and it's very easy to get scale of development."

"User friendly UI / Tree view to work with adding steps."

"The most valuable features are functional testing and the central repository that contains various scripts."

More Oracle Application Testing Suite pros

"Certify integrates with other tools and it works very well with other machine testing applications."

"With Certify, I developed the same automation features in about one-third of the time and which consisted of only about 450 Certify parameter-driven action steps, making it clear and obvious that going forward, development would be easier, much faster, and that maintaining 450 Certify action steps would always be easier than maintaining 10,000 syntax instructions typical with other tools."

"The ability to work with the data, with recordsets, and plug those into the scripts is very easy and very powerful. We use it extensively."

"We prefer Worksoft over other platforms because it's a low-code solution"

"The tool is easy to use. It is a drag and drop Microsoft type of solution."

"The main benefit that Worksoft Certify provides for me as an end user is scriptless automation, which is very important because there is no coding involved in it."

"On our last big SAP implementation project, we inserted an automation resource into the beginning of the project and, between automating regression processes, data staging, and using our automation to help repair cutover and conversion issues, we saved the project about $1,700,000."

"The typical range that we see is between 50 to 90 percent improvement in speed capabilities."

More Worksoft Certify pros

Cons

"OATS has some promising features that frankly we wish we could utilize, but so far we haven’t had much luck doing so."

"Lacks patches for new OS systems and doesn't work on a Mac."

"The tool runs out of memory when the recording flows are long and involve many screens despite increasing the memory settings for OpenScript."

"I think that licensing policies could be more intuitive; when we installed this application for the first time, we couldn't understand why there were only two users."

"We would like to see the instruction documentation made into video or audio formats, to help new users get used to the modules."

"Performance is slow as compared to other tools like QTP."

"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."

More Oracle Application Testing Suite cons

"They need to keep working on the mobile interface, the API part, and they need to improve more on web applications."

"Performance on the web UI part, especially with some of the more comprehensive Fiori features, like the complex tables that are being used, could be improved. In those cases we have noticed a lot of execution-time increase with regards to the Certify solution."

"We have had problems with an external cloud service (technology is Adobe Flex)."

"One feature that could be added to Capture 2.0 is generating a PDF file from your capture, so you can see your screenshots and steps."

"For Execution Manager, I would like it to be more robust interface and be able to view the remote machines full screen instead of a little window."

"The technical support of the product is an area of concern where certain improvements are required."

"What I dislike about Worksoft Certify is that if I have complex web applications or complex requirements, the scripting becomes difficult and the efficiency is also low for complex projects."

"The stability is very bad. We have a lot of projects, which are run by our service integrators offshore in India."

More Worksoft Certify cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers need to negotiate properly to get the tool at a lower price."

"ORACLE is giving at a very competitive rates to all its customers, and its a simple licensing process."

"There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."

"The price of the Oracle Application Testing Suite is not expensive. It is less expensive than other solutions."

"The complete package, including load testing and performance analysis, has a licensing fee."

"I can only judge based on the situation that we had around six years ago when we did the tool evaluation. Worksoft was not the cheapest, but it provided the value. For 25 concurrent licenses, we paid more than €400,000, so it was not cheap. In the end, if you see how much time you are saving and compare it with others, its price is okay. We had also compared its cost with the licensing costs for HP and Tricentis, and they were at another level. Now, as we have already booked the licenses, we only have to pay an annual maintenance fee, which is 70%, and that is okay."

"Worksoft has paid for itself fives times over."

"We saved $1.3 million using Worksoft Certify in 2017."

"On our last big SAP implementation project, we inserted an automation resource into the beginning of the project. Between automating regression processes, data staging, and using our automation to help repair cutover and conversion issues. We saved the project about $1,700,000."

"By using automation, it reduced about 75 percent of the time when compared to any other tool."

"If we do one manual process, it could take approximately two hours. The same process using Worksoft probably takes ten minutes."

"Worksoft Certify is priced higher than most tools."

"The license cost is quite high. This might not be a consideration for a large company, but it will be for a small company. E.g., Tricentis (their competitor) offers certain exclusive use cases where a company can use it in a certain way, so this is another option that companies consider."
