Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 18, 2024

Oracle Application Testing Suite and Ranorex Studio compete in the software testing automation category. Oracle has the upper hand for Oracle-specific projects, whereas Ranorex excels in cross-platform testing.

Features: Oracle Application Testing Suite provides a comprehensive package for automation, functional testing, performance testing, and load testing, especially effective within the Oracle ecosystem. Ranorex Studio offers strong support for cross-browser and cross-platform testing including mobile and desktop applications, Ranorex Spy, and robust code integration.

Room for Improvement: Oracle Application Testing Suite could enhance object identification, browser compatibility, and support for non-Oracle applications. Ranorex Studio could improve object recognition consistency, support additional operating systems like Mac and Linux, and enhance parallel execution capabilities and API documentation.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Oracle Application Testing Suite can be deployed on-premises or as a hybrid cloud solution with strong support within the Oracle ecosystem. Users find Oracle’s technical support responsive but occasionally delayed. Ranorex Studio is mainly deployed on-premises or via public cloud, facing challenges due to its Windows-only support. Its customer service is generally well-regarded but less specialized than Oracle's.

Pricing and ROI: Oracle Application Testing Suite is seen as affordable, especially for Oracle customers, offering favorable ROI and flexible licensing. Ranorex Studio, while potentially more expensive, justifies its pricing with a robust feature set and multi-platform compatibility, offering node-locked and floating licenses.

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.

Good data security, allowing local installations to prevent data from going to the internet

There were a lot of issues we faced. One notable improvement would be better API integration within the tool itself, as we still rely on external tools like Postman. Additionally, expanding language support beyond C#, Java, and JavaScript to include Python would be beneficial. An AI feature that automatically detects automation object properties and suggests actions would be a great addition. So, in future releases, AI solutions for automated property identification would be helpful.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the object identification feature, the recording feature is the prime feature that open script has, and I also like the connectivity with Oracle Forms as it is very compatible."

"We like that we don't need a separate management tool. This is a good feature. It also has an inbuilt performance tool which is on Flash. It has very good record and playback feature as well. The inspection tool is also very good. Overall, since it comes with all the three packages, it's very good."

"Overall, since it comes with all the three packages, it's very good."

"It helped in running performance testing cycles and identifying the bottlenecks of the application, helping our clients to run their application successfully and smoothly."

"It's user friendly and in-built API support makes it very easy to automate or develop an automation framework."

"OATS provides the functionality to institute a corporate-wide standardized method and approach for all types of application testing."

"Overall, Oracle Application Testing Suite is very easy to use and you can create a good framework for developing and testing."

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

More Oracle Application Testing Suite pros

"Object identification is good."

"This is way better than QTP and Silktest when compared to in following aspects: User friendly UI, Cost of Tool, Continuous Integration, Instant release of updated add-on as per latest technologies and browsers, Full fledged trial product for exact 30 days."

"The most valuable feature of Ranorex Studio is the capture and replay tool. You don't need to do script testing. When you launch any application from Ranorex Studio it automatically captures these test case steps. The next time you can replay the tool the flow automatically happens again. For example, when you do the logging and all the activity will be captured by the tool, and re-execute the same step by using automatization."

"Object identification is good, it is easy to identify and convenient for scripting as well, which is a good thing for us."

"Ranorex support is speedy, reliable and very friendly."

"Customer Service: Excellent – very quick and detailed responses. Technical Support: Excellent – very quick and detailed responses."

"Since it is possible to reference the API from some other tools and solutions, instead of being forced to use Ranorex studio, we gained a lot on flexibility and re-using our existing tools and technologies in combination with Ranorex features which are relevant for our test automation process."

"Easy integration with CI Tools like Jenkins, TFS, and TeamCity."

More Ranorex Studio pros

Cons

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

"It needs to be compatible with all browsers."

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

"Improvements can be made in a number of protocol support areas, including enhanced Citrix support."

"Room for improvement would be for the reporting features. If they could improve the dashboards, that would be helpful."

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

"The tool runs out of memory when the recording flows are long and involve many screens despite increasing the memory settings for OpenScript."

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

More Oracle Application Testing Suite cons

"I have proposed few suggestions to them in the product improvement area."

"I would like to be able to customize the data grids. They are currently written in Visual Basic and we are unable to get down to the cell level without hard-code."

"We are mainly working for manufacturing OEMs but the integration is not available. It would be a benefit if they built one integration tool for all the Teamcenter home servers and software as the main PLM data source. It is a simple process at this time, the integration could be made easier."

"I would like to be able to customize the data grids. They are currently written in Visual Basic and we are unable to get down to the cell level without hard-code."

"Tests will fail if browser minimised, Parallel Execution Not possible (We could do are some extend if we use DOM method)."

"The object detection functionality needs to be improved. We have found that when you are selecting objects by moving the mouse, and then the position of these objects change in the newer versions of the application, the test tool fails to correctly identify them."

"For a very long time, we were running into crashes with either Ranorex or Ranorex's utility (UIALauncher) which would stop our testing dead in its tracks."

"Running the tool in a distributed environment was a challenge since Ranorex requires an active user session."

More Ranorex Studio cons

"Our company has one license per user with each costing two lakh rupees."
