We performed a comparison between ReadyAPI and Tricentis Tosca based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Functional Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature has been the assertion as a test step as this has allowed us to increase the scope of testing and validation."
"The most valuable features of ReadyAPI are the drag-and-drop options and the integration with versioning tool solutions, such as Git."
"For anyone who does not have experience with automation, ReadyAPI provides a sense of comfort, especially for testers who find it hard to go directly into coding."
"The interface is ok and they have the ability to re-load tests so that you can reuse them."
"This solution is very intuitive. Once you finish your first few testing cases, you can change several parameters and create lots of testing cases. You could use the same testing cases for different purposes such as automation, performance and screen testing."
"The great thing about ReadyAPI is that it has a wide variety of functions. You can test any API that you come across. You are not limited to one type of API. It supports many APIs."
"ReadyAPI's best features are user-friendliness, smooth integration with Postman, the speed of creating test cases, and integration with customer data."
"Reporting is more robust than other products because test reports can be exported in multiple ways."
"Tricentis Tosca is well integrated with other products like Jira."
"This solution is easy to use for everybody, including those who are not IT-educated."
"The reporting is really nice."
"This solution is very easy to learn and any non-programmer or manual tester, with little experience in automation, can pick it up quite easily."
"I would rate the scalability a nine out of ten. We have enterprise-level customers."
"The model-based scriptless automation is the most valuable feature because it needs less maintenance as compared to script-based automation."
"It can provide all levels of testing from design to execution to reporting."
"What I find valuable is that Tricentis is always refining the test methodology. They listen to feedback from the analysts about what the testing tool should do, and then Tricentis always implements it. So all the necessary testing functions are already implemented in their tools."
"The UI is not user-friendly."
"Version control does not work well."
"ReadyAPI could improve by having dynamic validation information."
"They have performance testing also. However, it's not that great."
"The UI should be flexible. Currently, the UI isn't."
"To generate a test suite in API, I had to create a separate one each time because otherwise it was just override the test. Each API had to be added separately. I thought I could just have one and then create different methods, but I had to add each API separately to create the test for that. That is an area that could be improved."
"Can be improved by including an inherent feature for UI automation."
"I don't like how they don't have a clear way to manage tests between multiple projects."
"It can be quite expensive."
"The product needs to improve its pricing. It also needs to improve the infrastructure and DEX agent setup."
"The tool lags in client-based applications. We have also encountered issues with the features in integrations."
"The solution is expensive compared to other tools in the market."
"More and more artificial intelligence (AI) is coming in. So, some amount of AI to create natural language processing (NLP)-based test cases and manage defects would be very helpful. This is because the technologies have evolved in the last five to six months, so there is a potential opportunity there."
"First, Tricentis could improve Tosca's Linux scripting. We can automate Linux scripting, but there are a few commands that Tosca doesn't support. DVS support and the object identification mechanism could also be better."
"I would like a better user interface."
"The main area where there is room for improvement is how they do upgrades. Going through this current upgrade, we were delayed a month because we are using a third-party tool. It's called Tosca Connect by Tasktop. When this latest upgrade broke that relationship between the two, it took Tricentis a month to come back with a workable solution... Their whole upgrade process needs to be better and cleaner, from an end-user standpoint."
