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

"The most valuable feature is the object identification feature, the recording feature is the prime feature that open script has, and I also like the connectivity with Oracle Forms as it is very compatible."

"My advice to others is if they are using any Oracle Cloud Fusion-based or on-premise-based application, this is a good solution to use."

"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"

"It's user friendly and in-built API support makes it very easy to automate or develop an automation framework."

"Overall, Oracle Application Testing Suite is very easy to use and you can create a good framework for developing and testing."

"It has allowed more thorough testing with performance-based testing, in addition to regression testing and regular testing with each software release."

"Now I feel its the best tool to automate any of the Oracle Products, which include Oracle EBS Applications, PeopleSoft, JD Edwards, Siebel, Adobe Flex, ADF applications, etc.."

"We find the front-end interface of this solution to be very user-friendly, meaning easy navigation even for novice users."

More Oracle Application Testing Suite pros

"Our customers are saving money; it saves us time, approximately 50 percent, and we have cut test maintenance time by 70 to 80 percent."

"It is a huge improvement, as it recognizes complex general applications, where most tools won't recognize the objects within them."

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

"It is a fantastic tool."

"The most valuable feature is the ability to automate quickly and to maintain and update scripts."

"Worksoft has helped us position our company better because the product lets us show our value in terms of the benefits that we bring."

"It's very different versus other tools in the past, which were not very modern. It easy for people to automate."

"The decoupling of the test scripts from the data and the application is a nice feature. When you are creating test scripts, for example, for a web application, you have to learn about Worksoft and how the controls of a screen can be interpreted by Worksoft. For that purpose, you create so-called maps. These maps are loosely coupled to your scripts, which means if the application is changed, the control will be changed from an identifier. You don't need to rework the entire script. You only need to do these adjustments in the map, and then you can automatically reuse the scripts. So, it is really a smart move to have the decoupling of scripts, maps, and data."

More Worksoft Certify pros

Cons

"It does not provide easy diagnostics to ascertain end to end transaction monitoring."

"There are certain bugs which were present but was cleared in subsequent releases of application, but still there is room for improvement in the Functionality testing tool when automating form-based applications."

"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."

"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."

"The pathfinding at times is slow when we are using it. The tool's performance can be improved."

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

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

More Oracle Application Testing Suite cons

"Better automation capability would be helpful."

"Testing of web based applications can be really cumbersome at times."

"One feature that we have been asking for has been to treat tests as code and store the source code for tests in a configuration management tool."

"For beginners, I think this is the most problematic aspect."

"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."

"With one of our applications where we do check-in, Worksoft is not able to identify the Java-based application. We raised the ticket, but we were unable to resolve this using Worksoft."

"There have been some previous security concerns with the way that Capture has worked. When you turn it on, you don't know what it's capturing. This has raised some concerns in the past, especially in our European regions."

"I would like BPP to have more filtering options during the report creation. This would make our customers happy."

More Worksoft Certify cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

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

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

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

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

"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."

"Worksoft Certify is priced higher than most tools."

"The initial investment is probably a little high. It was a little hard for me to sell, but it was a one-shot deal and that's why it's so high. All we are doing now is paying annual maintenance, which we don't have to do if we don't want upgrades, but we do."

"Cost-wise, compared with other tools, it is a great product."

"Purchasing and licensing are okay. Go for the perpetual licenses. In that way, you own a license, then you can purchase maintenance and support on top of that, so you don't have to pay every year for it. Even if you don't want it a contract with Worksoft Certify in the future, you will have your own license of it. Then, if your usage is not that much, you can have one or two perpetual licenses. However, if you want to run your processes, you will need more licenses, e.g., using the run-only licenses. They are really cheap compared to the full licensing."

"Worksoft Capture 2.0 can help our customers to accelerate their automation development at least 40 percent faster than any other commercial tools available in the market."

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

"Our ROI is primarily a reduction in testing time. The testing, when we were doing it manually, was 30 to 40 percent of the project's cost."
