Offers unique object identification, ideal for UI layer regression automation but limited scalability
Performance is one key area for improvement. It can be slower compared to other tools I've used. Secondly, we have a very limited resource pool that uses this tool in India. So, finding resources familiar with Eggplant in India is challenging due to lack of affiliation programs and so on.

Automation test development becomes accessible and effective for functional testers
Tricentis Tosca is a codeless tool, making it easy for everyone to understand the transition of how to develop scenarios or test cases. In Tricentis Tosca, analyzing failures is straightforward because every time it fails somewhere, I get the screenshot, which helps me analyze how and why it failed. It has all the modules, including some pre-built ones that can be reused efficiently. Compared to other code tools such as Selenium, where I used to develop one script in one day, with Tricentis Tosca I can easily develop one script in four hours or three hours, saving four to five hours in a day.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We find the solution stable and scalable."
"Customer Service: Excellent and very personal."
"It is not a conventional test automation tool. It uses optical character recognition (OCR) to identify objects. It makes it the best in the class."
"It's been a revelation to us in terms of its ability to assist us in exploratory testing and to integrate with our current model-driven architecture."
"We've been really fortunate in that we've had virtually zero downtime in all the time we've been using Eggplant."
"We don't have a big team of people that can watch the dials and check that everything is okay. We're doing a lot of the monitoring of our website and our product at the side of the desk. We need a solution that does a lot for us, and that's what Eggplant does."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"Improves the software quality in production by finding more defects with automated test sets, before transporting developments to production."
"Tosca lets you jot down your requirements, design test cases, automate and analyse your test results within one GUI."
"The most valuable feature is the UI-based interface for building modules and turning modules into test cases."
"Customer Service: Best I have ever seen. Technical Support: Best I have ever seen."
"The most valuable features of Tricentis Tosca are all the test automation functionality. It is a full-scale automation tool."
"It offers many features, such as risk-based testing and scenario creation using Kafka."
"The automation engine is very strong, and it is very competitive in the market in terms of features. They develop a lot of features."
 

Cons

"I'd like to see the ability to integrate the user experience through device forms like AWS device forms or source labs."
"Performance is one key area for improvement. It can be slower compared to other tools I've used."
"One area I can think of to improve is the usability of the reports that we get."
"Bugs occur fairly frequently, but they are very responsive in identifying them and scheduling them for fixes in future releases."
"Not being able to mask test data in relation to testing data management, in my opinion, is also a limitation."
"The document object model or some aspects of it has a bit of a learning curve."
"It is very expensive as compared to other tools that we have in the market."
"I would like to see more implementation of AI on the self-healing aspect. That would be like the next step."
"Tricentis Tosca could improve on the ease of use. There is a steep learning curve. The reporting section could be better and some of the new features could be simplified. Additionally, the user management of the client and the server are confusing. There should not be two."
"Because of expensive licenses, if your company is new to the market, do not start a business using Tosca if you expect slow growth - use cheaper solutions instead, and switch to Tosca once you are overwhelmed with projects and work."
"More and more artificial intelligence (AI) is coming in. So, some amount of AI to create natural language processing (NLP)-based test cases and manage defects would be very helpful. This is because the technologies have evolved in the last five to six months, so there is a potential opportunity there."
"It did not improve because the GUI was not static, so it was not possible to write tests for a GUI that was in progress."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is competitive in India."
"Eggplant came out as the most competitive in terms of commercials (terms and conditions) which was positive. When we did the initial negotiations, Eggplant started at a price but they were open to negotiations and we did negotiate a discount. That was really important to us because it showed a level of commitment to us."
"There is an annual cost for Tricentis."
"I'm not sure if I'm at liberty to talk about the pricing, but it has some significant costs. For example, you have to pay a license and maintenance fee. Then the rest of the terms are negotiable. We have to consider what we need and what benefit we get from it."
"Expensive, but for long-term projects, it is paying back."
"They are probably more expensive than other comparable tools, but you also get the full suite of testing tools."
"Although the product is slightly more expensive than tools, its automation capabilities and reduced scripting needs justify the cost."
"It is expensive. There is also the training cost, but it does speed up the process. So, you get a return on investment."
"In terms of the licensing costs for Tricentis Tosca, we are spending more or less $70,000 per year. We have a very complex mechanism because there are some business users and some BI users, so the licensing structure is not simple, but support is included."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is very cheap and ten is very expensive, I rate the pricing a ten. The licensing model is based on a yearly basis."
