Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 18, 2024

OpenText UFT One and Oracle Application Testing Suite compete in the software testing category. Based on features and compatibility, OpenText UFT One holds an advantage due to its broader testing capabilities across various applications and platforms, whereas Oracle Application Testing Suite specializes in Oracle environments.

Features: OpenText UFT One offers extensive compatibility with various applications, including GUI testing and API testing. It supports numerous technologies and provides high-end automation frameworks. Oracle Application Testing Suite provides robust functional and load testing, especially for Oracle applications, with a detailed interface and performance testing capabilities.

Room for Improvement: OpenText UFT One users point to its resource-heavy nature and the need for better CI/CD integration. Some find it sluggish at times and costly. Oracle Application Testing Suite could improve in desktop application automation, setup simplicity, and browser compatibility, particularly for recent browser versions.

Mixed customer service reviews highlight response time issues. Oracle Application Testing Suite is often on-premises with hybrid cloud options, receiving favorable customer service feedback, especially for Oracle-centric setups, though technical support could be more efficient.

Pricing and ROI: OpenText UFT One is considered expensive, with various licensing options impacting budgets. Its ROI is often realized through increased efficiency in testing. Oracle Application Testing Suite offers competitive pricing, particularly when bundled with other Oracle solutions, providing good ROI for Oracle-focused enterprises through effective automation with minimal costs.

With regularly occurring releases, a QA team member can schedule tests, let the tests run unattended, and then examine the results

With certainty, the best feature of UFT is its compatibility with so many products, tools and technologies. It is a challenge currently to find a single tool on the market besides UFT that will successfully work for so many projects and environments. For example, UFT supports GUI testing of Oracle, PeopleSoft, PowerBuilder, SAP (v7.20), Siebel, Stingray, Terminal Emulator, Putty, and Windows Objects (particularly Dialog Boxes). Furthermore, UFT has the built-in functionality to import Excel input files. For Web browsers, UFT 12.54 supports IE9, IE10, IE11, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome (versions 31.0 to 54.9), Firefox (versions 27.0 to 49.0). Besides GUI testing, UFT supports database testing and API testing (Docker, WSDL, and SOAP). For the first time ever, HP started to expand the testing capabilities of UFT (QTP) beyond Windows beginning with UFT 12.00. A UFT user can now run tests on Web applications on a Safari browser that is running on a remote Mac computer.

Requires little maintenance, is stable, and easy to deploy

Oracle Application Testing Suite can improve by covering more browsers as compared to other solutions because they're considering the Edge browser as well, but the solution is working on different Windows operating platforms. For example, in our current Windows 2012 R2 server, if I want to automate the Edge browser, I need to upgrade that particular Windows to Windows 10.1 or some other Windows platform, because it's not supported in Windows 2012 feature. That is an issue. If cross-browsers can be incorporated, then support should be provided. There should be a single operating system where everything can be incorporated. I have faced issues with some indexing items. For example, the solution is able to derive some properties from the screen, such as button locations or text locations, but there are some elements, for example, unnamed buttons or text, where there is no name or ID or any other identifying information. Indexing doesn't always work, and we have to go to those elements manually and inspect them to determine their class, and then input that information into the system.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Being able to automate different applications makes day-to-day activities a lot easier."

"Micro Focus UFT One is a great tool and can be used in a variety of ways."

"This product is easy to use, understand, and maintain."

"The most valuable feature is that it is fast during test execution, unlike LoadRunner."

"The ease of record and playback as well as descriptive programming are the most valuable features of UFT (QTP)."

"The interface is fine and there is nothing else to add in terms of enhancement."

"Hidden among the kitchen sink of features is a new Data Generation tool called the Test Combinations Generator."

"With frequent releases, using automation to perform regression testing can save us huge amount of time and resources."

More OpenText UFT One pros

"Has good automation and load-testing capabilities."

"Oracle Application Testing Suite's most valuable feature is it works very smoothly with all Oracle Java-based applications."

"We do not need a separate test management tool because we have there is a management tool. That is a very good feature. Secondly, it has an inbuilt performance testing tool, which is on flash. It has very good record and playback features as well. And apart from that, there is a good inspection feature. Since it comes with all of the packages, it's very good."

"The most valuable feature is the object identification feature."

"The most valuable features are functional testing and the central repository that contains various scripts."

"User friendly UI / Tree view to work with adding steps."

"The graphics are very intuitive and it's very easy to get scale of development."

"I like the functional testing. There's a product inside OATS called OLT, Oracle Load Testing. You can do the load testing without depending on any other tool"

More Oracle Application Testing Suite pros

Cons

"The solution is expensive."

"Needs to improve the integration with the CI/CD pipeline (VSTS and report generation)."

"Technical support could be improved."

"Scripting has become more complex from a maintenance standpoint to support additional browsers."

"UFT still requires some coding."

"We used to run it as a test suite. Micro Focus provides that in terms of a test management tool as ALM, but when we think of integrating with a distributed version control system, like Jenkins, there isn't much integration available. That means we need to make use of external solutions to make it work."

"Sometimes, the results' file size can be intense. I wish it was a little more compact."

"[Tech support is] not a 10 because what happens with some of our issues is that we might not get a patch quickly and we have to hold on to an application until we get a proper solution."

More OpenText UFT One cons

"To provide test automation support for other products like SAP, Windows and Java Applications when it comes to Functional Test Automation testing."

"Lacks patches for new OS systems and doesn't work on a Mac."

"The pathfinding at times is slow when we are using it. The tool's performance can be improved."

"Oracle Application Testing Suite could improve by offering desktop-based application automation. It is lacking in this area at the moment."

"It needs to be compatible with all browsers."

"The dashboards need to be simplified and made more user-friendly."

"Licensing policies could be more intuitive."

"I have faced issues with some indexing items."

More Oracle Application Testing Suite cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared to other products, the solution is very expensive."

"The price is reasonable."

"It's an expensive solution."

"It's a yearly subscription. There are no additional costs to the standard subscription."

"The price is only $3,000. I don't know how many QA analysts you would have in any given company. Probably no more than five or 10. So if it's a large corporation, it can easily afford $15,000 to $25,000. I don't see that being an issue."

"HPE recently extended the demo license period from 30 days to 60 days which was a very wise and popular decision to give potential customers more time to install it and try it for free. Even if your company has a salesperson come in and demo UFT, I would highly encourage at least one of your developers or automation engineers to download and install it to explore for themselves the functionality and features included during the demo trial period."

"There are no additional costs involved apart from the standard license."

"The licensing cost is high. There are no additional costs to the standard license."

More OpenText UFT One pricing and cost advice

"Customers need to negotiate properly to get the tool at a lower price."

"The price of the Oracle Application Testing Suite is not expensive. It is less expensive than other solutions."

"ORACLE is giving at a very competitive rates to all its customers, and its a simple licensing process."

"There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."

"The complete package, including load testing and performance analysis, has a licensing fee."
