Find out in this report how the two Test Automation Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
Once set up, only one person is needed to handle all tasks, reducing the requirement for multiple personnel.
Due to the fast adoption, there is a quick ROI along with faster and better maintenance due to Tosca's AI and self-healing aspects.
Support has never been an issue, except for consulting which Tricentis charges for.
As for stability and performance, apart from a few hiccups and glitches, Tricentis qTest worked fine.
While using SmartBear TestComplete, we are fine with the current capabilities, however, it would be beneficial to improve some performance aspects, especially the image comparison feature.
There may be missing features that should be included in the next release of Tricentis qTest, such as integration with other tools, specifically integration with Parasoft.
It also does not allow for task tracking or calculating time spent on tasks, which affects project timelines.
The solution is expensive.
The pricing and execution of qTest are easy.
The most valuable feature of SmartBear TestComplete for me is the image comparison functionality.
There are also AI insights available based on the data and defects raised, which gives a view of functionalities where there are challenges and where more regression needs to happen.
A valuable feature is the ease of uploading, as well as creating folders.
I have seen measurable benefits with Tricentis qTest in terms of time-saving and resource-saving.
