Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Object identification is good.""The solution is intuitive and pretty self-sustaining. You don't need a lot of help with it in terms of setup or assistance.""The scalability is very good. It's probably one of the better tools I've seen on the market.""This is a powerful, reliable and versatile all-around application testing suite.""Code Conversion is one of the great features because sometimes, the automation tool doesn't have the capability of maneuvering around two specific evaluations.""I'm from a UFT background, so Ranorex Studio has a similar feel in terms of how it handles objects. It just felt familiar even though I'd never seen it before. However, it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of UFT, but it's a pretty good start, and it's cost-effective.""Support is very quick. You can write to them and on the same day, they will respond. This is one of the best features.""The solutions's regression testing is very important for our company, as is the continuous integration process."

More Ranorex Studio Pros →

"The most valuable features are that it is user-friendly, it's easy to use and easy to teach to others.""The out-of-the-box support for the database is a valuable feature.""The solution has some good scanning features.""The solution offers excellent integration capabilities.""The utmost importance lies in the performance of the application.""One good feature is SoapUI's URL check, which allows you to check among the applications. I'm not just talking about the ones for Android. It has all kinds of multi-world tests that are really helpful.""The solution scales well.""ReadyAPI has the power to enrich all the technical work. You can achieve any complex task using ReadyAPI. I can also do UI automation with ReadyAPI. In a few test cases, we want to check the API and the equivalent UI. I download a job and write a piece of Groovy or Java code. It's almost the same in ReadyAPI. I can do that in a single test case. ReadyAPI is a powerful tool because you can do anything you want, but only you need to download the right set of jobs and produce the right set of code."

Cons
"If there are many queries on the web page, Ranorex will not render the page correctly. I had about 1,000 queries on the page, and the solution was not able to handle it.""The solution does not support dual or regression testing.""The object detection functionality needs to be improved.""I'd like to know their testing strategies and to know what they can automate and what they can't. It can become pretty frustrating if you're trying to automate something that changes on a monthly or weekly basis.""When Ranorex is upgraded, the compatibility with other projects, in version control, in-house or on-premise, fails on occasion. However, overall, the stability is good.""The solution's technical support team could be responsive.""We are mainly working for manufacturing OEMs but the integration is not available. It would be a benefit if they built one integration tool for all the Teamcenter home servers and software as the main PLM data source. It is a simple process at this time, the integration could be made easier.""Binding to other sources is very good but the object recognition in .NET desktop applications often doesn't work."

More Ranorex Studio Cons →

"If the load and bare minimum could be defined, I would give this solution a higher rating.""Automation features are not user-friendly.""The UI should be improved.""I find that I'm fighting with the opportunities to order requests.""SoapUI Pro could improve by having dashboards.""There aren't any plugins for UI automation. You need to make a custom code and download a job to put into the libraries. If it were panelized, then it would be straightforward. It should be in a panel of the tools, so you can add those tools as your test step in your test cases.""The documentation needs to be improved because the interface is not easy for a first-time user.""Grouping of the cases is not possible in SoapUI, to my knowledge. When working with critical cases or the, we were not able to group them properly. We can definitely create a suite and add them there, but within a whole suite, we have to identify them, which was not easy."
