StuartBarker - PeerSpot reviewer
A tool that provides effective test management and real-time reporting capabilities
I have faced some issues with the integration between TestRail and Jira where the status of tests is not displayed (in Jira) due to I suspect security settings on the browser. In a large corporate environment, it is not easily changed. The support wasn't particularly helpful. It would be great if I could create custom reports, ideally with a tool designed specifically for that.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution is stable."
"CucumberStudio aligns with our strategy for data-driven testing."
"The data table that helps in converting a single script to multiple test cases is very helpful."
"CucumberStudio aligns with our strategy for data-driven testing."
"The best thing is that a person without knowledge about the program can easily understand what happened in our testing process."
"The URL is very useful, and it has a very good UI for deploying information of the scenarios created."
"CucumberStudio has a very user-friendly interface."
"Integration with Confluence and JIRA."
"The most valuable features are the flexibility, ease of use for writing new test cases, the test plans, and the composition."
"I haven't faced any stability issues using the solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The biggest advantage of using TestRail is its simplicity and intuitive interface."
"From a testing perspective, the management is awesome. I am able to do testing and then add the reporting and the evidence. It is fair in terms of the price that you're paying. You get what you're paying for."
"The integration with Jira and the ability for extra configurations are the most valuable features."
"Most valuable features are the ease of organizing test cases and a great API for sending results from automated test run results into the database."
"I was on the lookout for automation testing on the browser and I believe this tool is very interesting in that matter. The solution is useful for UI testing. You just need to add the URL that is to be checked."
 

Cons

"A key area for improvement is to revamp outdated components such as HipTest publisher."
"I would like to see better customer support."
"A key area for improvement is to revamp outdated components such as HipTest publisher."
"Another kind of deployment might be useful, perhaps an option to install the tool in a local deployment."
"I think it would be better if we could also do the reporting with CucumberStudio."
"The reporting needs to be improved."
"Better prediction of text."
"The reports should be more user-friendly."
"TestRail should improve its pricing."
"Customer support could be enhanced. All the support is provided via chat and emails. Sometimes, you really need to speak to a person, and arranging such calls is not easy."
"I have faced some issues with the integration between TestRail and Jira, which haven't been permanently resolved yet."
"I do see room for lots of improvement in it. In terms of usability, duplication with test cases and constant creation of projects isn't easy. There is also too much API integration into automation tools, which is not there in ALM with UFT. Instead of setting it up as a project and using it, we set it up as a system for usability. It also lacks in the traceability aspect. For traceability, you need to use the JIRA plugin and drag traceability on JIRA, but the functionality is still quite limited. The biggest gap is mainframe testing. It would be good if I could start with mainframe testing. Manual granting of access is another issue. There is no API that I could use with another system where it is automated. There is an API for loading somebody to a project but not for adding to the application."
"It would be useful if it had its own issue management system. At the moment, it's purely a test management tool and you have to link to a defect management tool, like JIRA. It would be useful if there was an option to use its own defect management tool so that it's integrated and not two separate tools."
"It would be nice to have a description section when creating the test scenario itself so I can indicate what the configuration should be."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The product has a reasonable price in terms of the features."
"The price of the solution is based on how many users you have per year. When you grow, it is segmented, For example, 10 to 25, you have a price, and more than 50, or 100, you need to take the enterprise license. I don't think we will reach this point."
"Pricing for small teams seems correct with respect to competitors."
"The solution is quite reasonably priced for what it offers and offers a monthly subscription model."
"My advice to others is to shop around for the best deal. Some options out there are free in cyberspace."
"I give the price a five out of ten."
"Use TestRail Cloud (online TR hosted server) and don't worry about maintenance or scalability. It saves a lot of cash and time."
"The product is not much expensive."
