Find out in this report how the two Regression Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Whenever I speak to the support team of Katalon Studio, I learn that some new features will be included in the product. It is a scalable product."
"The best feature is the split up between test cases and the test object. This allows us to easily change an error."
"User-friendly and a good solution."
"The recording feature of this product is very valuable for our testing purposes."
"I rate Katalon Studio's scalability a four out of five."
"This is a product that is well ahead of its immediate competition in features and functionality."
"The ability to build all libraries with codes and use them in many situations has been most valuable."
"The most valuable feature of Katalon Studio is visual testing. It compares the look and feel of an application which is useful."
"It offers a wide range of testing."
"The solution has good out-of-the-box protocols."
"This product is easy to use, understand, and maintain."
"It's simple to set up."
"The solution is easy to integrate with other platforms."
"UFT has improved our ability to regression test."
"The interface is fine and there is nothing else to add in terms of enhancement."
"The initial setup is relatively easy."
"It is difficult to identify elements on websites that use Angular or ReactJS because they don't have an option to view source code."
"Support options need improvement. It is sometimes hard to find a solution to any given problem, thus you are forced to use another solution."
"Now we are having difficulties in using it and had to limit our automation experts to the features that Katalon allows us to use for free. It was free access and they claimed that it would be free for all time."
"I can say that in my company, we struggle a lot with iOS automation."
"The Object Spy is rather frustrating to work with, so I tend not to use it."
"I've seen that our clients are not truly aware of the power behind Katalon."
"The product is comparatively slow."
"It would be helpful if they can integrate a feature for performance testing."
"Perhaps more coverage as far as different languages go. I'm talking more about object identification."
"They should include an automated feature to load backlog tests."
"UFT has a recording feature. They could make the recording feature window bigger for whatever activities that I am recording. It would improve the user experience if they could create a separate floating panel (or have it automatically show on the side) once the recording starts."
"Sometimes it appears that UFT takes a while to open and sometimes will run slower than expected. Also, UFT uses a lot of memory. On this note, if you are running UFT on a virtual server I would add more RAM memory than the minimum requirements especially when using multiple add-ins. HP is pretty good about coming out with new patches to fix known issues and it pays for the user to check for new patches and updates on a regular basis."
"Scripting has become more complex from a maintenance standpoint to support additional browsers."
"They should include AI-based testing features."
"The product should evolve to be flexible so one can use any programming language such as Java and C#, and not just VB script."
"There is a lot of room for improvement when it comes to friction-free continuous testing across the software life cycle, as a local installation is required to run UFT."
