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."When we are doing API testing we have found it to be very efficient to receive results. Additionally, you are able to do tests directly from the API."
"The most valuable features of ReadyAPI are the drag-and-drop options and the integration with versioning tool solutions, such as Git."
"It has the ability to combine it with different CI/CD tools."
"The most valuable feature of ReadyAPI is that it is user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature is being able to run each version for test suites."
"ReadyAPI's best features are that it's user-friendly and its behavior-driven development is flexible."
"It can create stress tests very fast, and some features help you do it fast."
"ReadyAPI's best features are user-friendliness, smooth integration with Postman, the speed of creating test cases, and integration with customer data."
"Good use in Agile workshops, where the person needs to conceptualize the tests before the developer provides the complete application interface."
"The automation engine is very strong, and it is very competitive in the market in terms of features. They develop a lot of features."
"This solution is easy to use for everybody, including those who are not IT-educated."
"The feature that I have found the most valuable is the recovery and cleanup process. Suppose there is a list of test cases and one test case has failed, it should not impact the other test cases. We can reuse the same test case. We can change the configuration of parameters and then use the test cases on the same thing. So, that's a useful thing. Otherwise, we have to use the cleanup process. Another useful feature is to have our own library files. We can create our objects in the libraries and reuse them. There is no need to create duplicate data for that. They have been giving some enhancements recently which means integration is also there. They've integrated with different software like Jenkins, Bamboo. So, we can also create pipeline points. They have recently given SAP and everything, which is very useful."
"Multiple scanning engines to automate many different applications."
"Compared to other tools we have been looking at, you don't have to be a programmer to operate it, though it helps. It also a product that can be used by business people."
"The scalability is a valuable feature of Tricentis Tosca."
"The Model-Based Test Automation is the most valuable feature, where you can create reusable components. Even though we are using a scriptless automation tool, there still needs to be an understanding of how to create reusable components and how to keep refactoring and how to keep regression, the test scripts, at an okay level. We are coupling Tosca with some other risk-based testing tools, as well, but automation is primarily what we're using Tosca for, the scriptless, model-based technology which is driving automation for us."
"The solution is made up of multiple tools, and the one additional feature we'd like to have is load testing."
"The reporting in ReadyAPI could be better. It can become sloppy, sometimes it works and other times it does not."
"ReadyAPI can improve because it is limited to only SOAP and REST services. They should update the solution to include more protocols so that other people are not limited to SOAP and REST services. Other than would be able to utilize it."
"ReadyAPI could improve by adding a conversion tool from one file type to another. Import support for multiple file types would be beneficial."
"They have performance testing also. However, it's not that great."
"Many users will consider this solution expensive compared to the layout. It is more expensive than other solutions."
"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."
"The performance in some cases needs improvement. Sometimes it requires too many resources."
"You need to spend much more time learning the tool and how to use it, compared to others."
"Tricentis Tosca's performance could be better. Sometimes when we are remapping or when it is loading it can take a lot of time. There are free solutions that have better performance in this area."
"Security, UI, and basic performance improvements could be done to the product to enhance its use."
"Primarily I'm dealing with customers looking for a cheap solution, and they are willing to try open-source automation solutions. So from this perspective, the price of Tosca is not as competitive."
"The support we received from Tricentis Tosca was good, but it can improve."
"Very difficult to get information about licensing costs."
"Many times when we have raised a ticket, we did not get an urgent response."
"I would like to see more implementation of AI on the self-healing aspect. That would be like the next step."
