Good data security, allowing local installations to prevent data from going to the internet
There were a lot of issues we faced. One notable improvement would be better API integration within the tool itself, as we still rely on external tools like Postman. Additionally, expanding language support beyond C#, Java, and JavaScript to include Python would be beneficial. An AI feature that automatically detects automation object properties and suggests actions would be a great addition. So, in future releases, AI solutions for automated property identification would be helpful.

Cloud-based testing has simplified remote mobile validation and provides flexible device coverage
I was not impressed with how detailed their analytics and logs are from LambdaTest. The solution we were testing is being used because many of us are working from home. It was easy to implement because with a real phone, we have to bring a real phone to each person. Since three years ago, many employees have been working from home, so we were trying to find a solution for this challenge. We had no need to exploit the information for the analytics generated in the background. The purpose was simply to make it easy for our employees to access a phone. The downsides I noticed include that the pricing was very good, but the visual quality of the image sometimes suffers. The contrast on a real iPhone provides better contrast than with the cloud solution. The only aspect that was less favorable than on a real phone was the contrast of the color.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's improved our company in a numbers of ways, but most importantly it helps us save time and the report preparation is nice and easy."
"Object identification is good."
"Based on my experience, this would be my tool of choice for test automation."
"It is a good tool to perform user interface testing over a .NET product."
"Ranorex Spy is the most valuable feature for us, as it provides functionalities for analysis of host or web applications, as well as information for test automation."
"The most valuable feature of Ranorex Studio is the capture and replay tool. You don't need to do script testing. When you launch any application from Ranorex Studio it automatically captures these test case steps. The next time you can replay the tool the flow automatically happens again. For example, when you do the logging and all the activity will be captured by the tool, and re-execute the same step by using automatization."
"The solution is stable."
"If you are looking for an automation tool that is easy to implement, easy to understand, and works with most of technologies on the market, Ranorex is the appropriate solution for you."
"The Docker tunnel integration for local testing can be extremely useful to run on multiple instances in parallel."
"The most valuable feature is the real-time testing, which helps you to test your website on more than two thousand combinations of browsers and operating systems."
"The primary feature that has significantly improved our test execution times is automation."
"LambdaTest was handy and easy enough to save us a lot of time, effort, and money."
"LambdaTest proved to be a savior for us here, as one platform does the job!"
"The most valuable features are that it's essentially on-demand, and you only focus on getting the code that needs to be executed without having to worry about the OS, hardware, etc."
"The technical support services are excellent."
"LambdaTest is a saving soldier for our company by offering us thousands of browsers and platforms to test on the cloud."
 

Cons

"I think it still needs to improve a lot."
"The stability is in the range of eighty-five percent of what I was expecting. We still have some issues."
"No real issues, but I had to force close Ranorex Studio a couple of times, as it was stuck with the 'Not Responding' message for a long time on Windows 7."
"It's usually any minor firewall change or anything changed in our security system that seems to throw me off for a few days where I have to troubleshoot it and figure out why it's not working."
"Their logs are not compatible with the continuous integration we use internally."
"SQL Connector has a lot of improvements to make, and they need to implement user-defined queries."
"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."
"When we have updated the solution in the past there have been issues with the libraries. They need to make it clear that the libraries need to be upgraded too."
"Mobile application testing will be an added benefit for us if LambdaTest implements this really soon."
"For us, Cypress! It looks like the support for Cypress is not there."
"LambdaTest needs to improve its speed and memory because it takes a long time to load."
"It would be much easier for us to read the test if they provided dashboard analytics."
"Sometimes, when multiple users use the tool simultaneously, it can slow down, affecting efficiency."
"Mobile application testing would be helpful for us."
"I feel that the automated screenshot testing takes a little longer on MacOS sometimes."
"The tool can improve its testing speed. Changing or switching to another mobile phone can be very slow on a real device."

"We paid €3,000 (approximately $3,300 USD) for this solution. When you add the runtime licenses it will be €3,500 (approximately $3,900 USD)."
"There are several types of licenses and you need to choose depending on your needs and level of usage."
