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."The real devices feature is the most valuable feature for us."
"Our test execution time was reduced to 16 mins from five hours when executed in parallel on multiple VMs. This has been extremely helpful!"
"In case something goes wrong at LambdaTest end, the Support team is extremely responsive to analyze any platform-related issues."
"This product offers out-of-the-box geolocation testing in automation, which is amazing!"
"The UI is pretty clean and easy to navigate, and we were able to figure it out very quickly."
"LambdaTest easily integrates with leading project management, bug tracking, and CI-CD tools like Jira, Asana, Jenkins, Circle CI, and more."
"Builds that took days to complete with in-house infrastructure were executed in a couple of hours."
"The most valuable features are that it's essentially on-demand, and you only focus on getting the code that needs to be executed without having to worry about the OS, hardware, etc."
"It's easy for new people to get trained on this solution. If we are hiring new people, the resource pool in the market in test automation is largely around Selenium."
"The plugins, the components, and the method of the library with Selenium is very user defined."
"The initial setup is straightforward. Deployment took about seven months."
"All the features in Selenium to automate the UI."
"We can run multiple projects at the same time and we can design both types of framework, including data-driven or hybrid. We have got a lot of flexibility here."
"Since Selenium HQ has multiple plug-ins, we can use it with multiple tools and multiple languages."
"Selenium is the fastest tool compared to other competitors. It can run on any language, like Java, Python, C++, and .NET. So we can test any application on Selenium, whether it's mobile or desktop."
"The most valuable feature of Selenium HQ is it provides support for third-party tools, such as screenshots, and automates Windows-based applications."
"I feel that the automated screenshot testing takes a little longer on MacOS sometimes."
"Performing automation testing from UI is a little slow and could be improved."
"Mobile application testing will be an added benefit for us if LambdaTest implements this really soon."
"If possible to simulate the finger pinch, it would make it more realistic."
"The scalability is good with Amazon, but IBM had some issues."
"The analytics over the automation dashboard can be more intuitive."
"I would like to see all of the features available in the freemium plan so that I can test them."
"Sometimes, when multiple users use the tool simultaneously, it can slow down, affecting efficiency."
"To simplify the development process, everyone needs to do a Selenium Framework to acquire the web application functions and features from Selenium methods."
"The latest versions are often unstable."
"Katalon has built a UI on top of Selenium to make it more user-friendly, as well as repository options and the ability to create repositories for objects, among other things. It would be helpful if this type of information could be included in the Selenium tool itself, so people wouldn't have to do filing testing."
"An improvement to Selenium HQ would be the inclusion of a facility to work on Shadow DOM."
"The stop control needs to be improved with a configuration tool to enable desktop support."
"Selenium uses a layer-based approach that is somewhat slower than Eggplant when it comes to executing code."
"Coding skills are required to use Selenium, so it could be made more user-friendly for non-programmers."
"They should leverage the tools for supporting Windows apps."
