Shyam_Prasad - PeerSpot reviewer
AVP - Testing & QA at Laminaar Aviation
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.
AKSHAYRATHI - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior engineer at Nagarro
End-to-end regression automation has accelerated delivery and now secures complex test data
I think Tosca can be improved, particularly in AI capabilities because right now Tosca does not have any strong API capabilities. It has some AI features in the newer version, but many organizations have not adopted these due to version-specific problems, as some are still using older versions. From an AI point of view, they can enhance reliability since the world is moving towards AI, and every tool must be integrated. While Tosca has made attempts, I have not used them and they are not widely adopted, so they are stuck in the testing phase in my organization. I would also mention that while I am currently using Tosca Mobile, the loading part and connectivity issues need improvement. They should better integrate AI features that are already present but not widely used across many organizations. Reliability on the AI aspect needs enhancement for practical application. From the perspective of governance and security, I believe Tosca can develop its own LLM or leverage third-party LLMs while maintaining security and risk management regarding client data. Many companies prefer using Tosca due to data security, which is crucial. An in-house LLM could significantly enhance its debugging power and provide helpful solutions upon test case failure.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We've been really fortunate in that we've had virtually zero downtime in all the time we've been using Eggplant."
"Customer Service: Excellent and very personal."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"We find the solution stable and scalable."
"Tosca lets you jot down your requirements, design test cases, automate and analyse your test results within one GUI."
"I would recommend this solution to others."
"This solution is easy to use for everybody, including those who are not IT-educated."
"Tests written once can be reused across different projects."
"The XScan was great because it was a handy way to automate on a surface which made it very easy and simple."
"The model-based scriptless automation is the most valuable feature because it needs less maintenance as compared to script-based automation."
"The most valuable feature of Tricentis Tosca is it is a completely scriptless automation tool, which I liked a lot."
"This is a complete Test Automation solution of our Enterprise Legacy system, which has many technical peripherals."
 

Cons

"One area I can think of to improve is the usability of the reports that we get."
"I'd like to see the ability to integrate the user experience through device forms like AWS device forms or source labs."
"Bugs occur fairly frequently, but they are very responsive in identifying them and scheduling them for fixes in future releases."
"Performance is one key area for improvement. It can be slower compared to other tools I've used."
"Not being able to mask test data in relation to testing data management, in my opinion, is also a limitation."
"I would also mention that while I am currently using Tosca Mobile, the loading part and connectivity issues need improvement."
"The product, at times, does not recognize objects, especially in web applications."
"It needs better integration with JIRA."
"The main area where there is room for improvement is how they do upgrades. Going through this current upgrade, we were delayed a month because we are using a third-party tool. It's called Tosca Connect by Tasktop. When this latest upgrade broke that relationship between the two, it took Tricentis a month to come back with a workable solution... Their whole upgrade process needs to be better and cleaner, from an end-user standpoint."
"Do not buy this tool if you simply need a driver for your automation, as open source solutions (e.g. Selenium), or technology specific solutions are more suitable here."
"Not part of my job, but during the upgrade our IT departmend faced several issues in the installation process of the new version."
"The connection between the CI client and remote machine dropped off when certain standard Tosca modules were used in the test cases."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The pricing is competitive in India."
"Tosca is expensive. I don't see small and medium customers going for it. It's always large enterprises that have a big pocket. It is very expensive as compared to the other tools that we have in the market. They should reduce the price by half, and if they do that, they would do better business. From the competition perspective, other solutions are at a pretty similar level. UiPath is also very expensive. One thing that I always wanted was a short-term consumption license. With Tricentis, the biggest challenge is that you have to go for a minimum of one year license, and they also try to sell you a three-year license. It would be good if people can get a three-month or four-month consumption license."
"My understanding is that it's an expensive product, although I don't know the specifics with regards to pricing."
"​It is an expensive tool compared to other test automation tools. It has a lot of advantages over other tools."
"Pricing for Tricentis Tosca could be improved because it's very expensive."
"It is expensive. There is also the training cost, but it does speed up the process. So, you get a return on investment."
"There is an annual cost for Tricentis."
"The pricing of the solution comes as part of our Tosca bundle."
"The pricing is high, but altogether it offers you the ability to automate all sorts of applications: desktop, web, mobile, etc."
