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

More Oracle Application Testing Suite pros

"By our calculations we are now getting a return of 50% time saved in team efforts, making the team 50% more productive."

"With a small team of one onshore person and three offshore people, I was able to show the value of $90,000 savings for a project as a POC and the customer is currently using this tool for several other projects in their organization after seeing the ROI for one project."

"This is a powerful, reliable and versatile all-around application testing suite."

More Ranorex Studio pros

Cons

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

"OTM Test Report – We needed to develop custom reports as there is less flexibility."

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

"It needs to be compatible with all browsers."

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

"Transaction handling was very simple and I’d say quite primitive."

"WebForms works fine, but scripting in the EBS forms option isn't very consistent and stable."

"The test installation pretty much destroyed my computer’s laptop performance."

More Oracle Application Testing Suite cons

"No real issues, but I had to force close Ranorex Studio a couple of times, as it was stuck with the 'Not Responding' message for a long time on Windows 7."

"If there are many queries on the web page, Ranorex will not render the page correctly. I had about 1,000 queries on the page, and the solution was not able to handle it."

"While the product does well with its primary job of testing, when we are using Ranorex it would be nice if it would report directly in HTML."

"Ranorex is used in Windows while other solutions, for example, Katalon Studio, are cross-platform. (But in my opinion, overall, Ranorex is better)."

"The compatibility with different browsers needs to be improved."

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

"The automation of the SAP application could perhaps be improved to make it much simpler."

"I'd like to know their testing strategies and to know what they can automate and what they can't. It can become pretty frustrating if you're trying to automate something that changes on a monthly or weekly basis."

More Ranorex Studio cons
