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 cross-browser feature, it has many android and iOS devices both simulators and real devices. It's easy to integrate. I also like video recording too.""It has a wide assortment of platforms.""They offer a large number of devices and browser/operating system combinations for real device tests""Sauce Labs is optimized for automation and integration with the major CI/CD platforms and developer tools. We have an integration with App Center that we're working on. They have a storage API that lets us retrieve APK and IPA, iOS and Android builds off the phone, so that we can continue testing with CI/CD. They integrate with Jenkins, and Jenkins is the main CI/CD.""Easy to integrate with the other platform for tracking purposes.""Sauce Connect gave us ability to test an application that was hosted locally.""It provides a comprehensive selection of browsers and platform versions for our test automations and CI/CD pipeline process. It also provides a comprehensive set of virtual mobile devices, which we can configure for our automation and availability. These features are valuable for us when it comes to testing our applications. We have a website and mobile applications that we want to test and diversify to various browsers and mobile devices as well as restore various versions. This helps us to find bugs that users might be facing and correct them.""APPIUM for mobile testing has improved our organization by allowing us to test our website on more devices and browsers than we currently possess."

"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution.""The script-less part of it was good for novice users.""The automation and AI are very good.""The ease of web and mobile functional testing is pretty easy on TestProject.""Ability to carry out automatic testing without having coding knowledge.""Since implementing this solution, our code management has been reduced by 40% to 60%."

Cons
"Running tests in the SauceCloud can take longer than running in a local environment.""We have had some issues with the Sauce Connect Proxy on our Jenkins servers failing to start, which makes the optimal CI/CD pipeline come to a halt.""The ability to install profiles on iOS real mobile devices should be included.""They could improve the platform's customer support services.""The one issue I have is the 14-day trial that a new user gets for free. I understand the concept of the trial period; however, I think this could be revamped to a free 30-minute run time every few months or after a significant update once the trial period has ended.""Integration with Github, as well as several other similar tools, could be improved.""Better and programmatic controls on request/response recordings and sharing with developers.""Another feature that could still be improved on is more error clarity. Sometimes when running automated scripts the test will fail on the device side instead of the script and errors only show a 500 try again message instead of a detailed script that could of a been a timeout error from the code."

More Sauce Labs Cons →

"I and some other experts may be able to understand the solution's reporting system, but a layperson won't understand it.""Difficult trying to configure on more than one browser.""TestProject needs better support for integration with other products to provide a better overall solution for test planning and test data management.""The support is a weak point since they discontinued the tool.""In an upcoming release, there should be a SaaS offering available.""We'd like to see a direct cloud from TestProject instead of some other third party."

  • "Go ahead please. Try it at a smaller scale."
  • "Trial the product and see if it suits your needs."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Sauce Labs is a solution that stands out when compared to many of its competitors. It has valuable features that include error logging, helpful dashboards, and its browser.

    Joel A., Product Manager - Data & APIs at a marketing services firm, says, "The error logging is very robust. If we run a test through Sauce Labs and there's some sort of issue, a log will appear on the screen. Log messages are usually heinous and horrible... Sauce Labs is incredibly good at saying things like, 'Hey, here is the exact issue. Fix this and you can run the test.' That helps in getting things up and running and executing the way they should."

    Savio D., Sr. IT Architect at a healthcare company, mentions, "Sauce Labs' dashboards contain multiple useful metrics in one place. Everything is represented to us visually on the dashboard, which helps us understand where to focus our attention, what the issues are, and what we need to resolve."

    PeerSpot reviewer, Rob L., Director of Quality Assurance - Shared Service at a financial services firm, writes, “The most valuable feature for us is the browser. The most critical thing is that this software aligns with our Agile and DevOps way of doing things. It integrates with kickoff scripts through DevOps.”

    TestProject is a free end-to-end test automation platform for web, mobile, and API testing that’s supported by the #1 test automation community.
