Deborah Yarosh - PeerSpot reviewer
Can be used by non-developers, and saves us time, but the manual testing needs improvement
UiPath’s Test Suite manual testing doesn’t work for our organization based on how the QA Analysts do their manual testing and the artifacts that are needed for deployment. The QA Manager needs to track which tests have been completed, the success rate, and other relevant information. The ability to have manual tests show up in multiple projects is a requirement that is not easily done in Test Suite. We have submitted the following enhancements request to UiPath and are waiting for them to address these issues before migrating our manual testing to the UiPath Test Suite platform. * Ability to import manual test cases from an Excel Spreadsheet. * Ability to create release folders and have manual tests under the folders (sub-folders are also needed). * Ability to copy tests between projects (manual and automated). * Ability to execute manual test cases in any order and skip tests if needed. * Ability to assign and see who has been assigned to test cases – need to know who created the test case and who executed the test case as they could be different people. * Ability for the QA manager to see which test cases have been run and which haven’t as well as which ones were successful, and which weren’t. * Ability for the QA manager to track defect cycles for a particular release. * Improving Search functionality – must enter the exact test case name in current search functionality. * Ability to extract key data for artifacts for Release Management or Audit* Test Set or Individual Cases, * Include Test Results (passed / failed), * Include how many iterations a test case went through until it passed.

Pros

"The solution's most valuable features are the designing of API, Property Transfer feature, and Groovy plugin."
"We need to test the APIs as we build them. I use the product for API testing. You can do AWS security in SoapUI. With SoapUI, we can even perform mutual SSL authentication by incorporating certificates into the SoapUI browser. This allows us to send transactions to the backend downstream."
"SoapUI is a pretty simple tool."
"Test Suite has multiple tools that are fully integrated. It has everything you need to record your test cases, generate your documentation, and integrate synthetic data with your Orchestrator. I like the integrated aspect of it. The biggest advantage of UiPath is that it not only tests but also integrates with all the other services to offer a complete package."
"It's useful for automating tasks."
"The console, in a single pane, allows us to understand where we are in the testing environment."
"Being able to use regular expressions, activities, and attributes is valuable."
"The detailed logging is invaluable."
"We can generate our own workflow. In our case, it is a report on the PDF file. In the reporting category, we generally verify a couple of things and generate a lot of reports at the end of the day. It provides some useful details about the data captured from the PDF that we can put into an Excel file."
"The document understanding is good."
"It's effective at testing whatever automation we've built or making sure the automation we've built is working fine."
 

Cons

"The product needs to be available as an extension for the Chrome browser."
"There are more advanced API testing tools than SoapUI, and SoapUI could be made better."
"The solution should include some plug-ins to share the generated reports over email."
"The test manager component could be improved."
"Orchestrator is not easy to use or understand."
"If I publish a test case in Test Manager as well as in Orchestrator, the existing test case does not get replaced. It is appending the test case but not replacing it."
"They can improve the dashboard by adding some widgets for reporting. Also, currently, they don't have defect management modules."
"The pricing isn't as low as other options."
"They could improve the visualization of the product."
"Storing the test scripts is what needs to improve in the UiPath Test Suite, as it's currently a challenge to some extent. Maintaining the files is a bit challenging, especially when you need to keep those locally."
"The product releases sometimes have issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"SoapUI is an open-source solution."
"SoapUI is a cheap tool that does not have an expensive license."
"It is a little bit more expensive than Selenium, but it provides value for money. There are multiple types of licenses such as the Test Suite license, Studio Pro license, Test Manager license, and Test Robot license. The overall cost estimation is 13,800 dollars."
"When we decided to buy the solution three and a half years ago, it was fairly priced."
"I wasn't involved in the negotiations for the UiPath Test Suite, so I have no information on its pricing."
"I consider it expensive. I would rate it a seven out of ten for pricing. It's priced per license on an annual basis. Our customers usually pay around 30K to 35K for five licenses, which is priced per year."
"I don't necessarily have a problem with the pricing of the UiPath Test Suite, especially because we're using the testing bot licenses as opposed to the unattended licensing."
"UiPath Test Suite is a cost-effective solution. Orchestrator is the most expensive UiPath module, costing around $20,000, but you don't need to purchase Orchestrator to use Test Suite. You can buy a nonproductive version that costs about $2,400. It's a better value than other products I've seen."
"Regarding the pricing model, I believe it would be beneficial to combine it with some of the other platform aspects."
"Its price is a bit high."
