Flexible and intuitive with easy reporting, and good support that is instantly available through chat
It doesn't allow you to connect to multiple different bug tracking tools at the same time. This is not an issue if you only have one bug tracker but we can potentially use different tools for different projects. As an example, if you connect PractiTest to Jira for one project, that's the one you have to use for all projects. We had a requirement to connect with Jira for one project, and a different tool for another, project but it was unable to accommodate that unfortunately. I would therefore like to see it easier to integrate with bug tracking tools at project level which would give each project the opportunity to use a different bug tracker if required.

Automation test development becomes accessible and effective for functional testers
Tricentis Tosca is a codeless tool, making it easy for everyone to understand the transition of how to develop scenarios or test cases. In Tricentis Tosca, analyzing failures is straightforward because every time it fails somewhere, I get the screenshot, which helps me analyze how and why it failed. It has all the modules, including some pre-built ones that can be reused efficiently. Compared to other code tools such as Selenium, where I used to develop one script in one day, with Tricentis Tosca I can easily develop one script in four hours or three hours, saving four to five hours in a day.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Converting a couple of these test plans into PractiTest was amazing and made a world of difference."
"In addition, we found PractiTest very user-friendly and customizable."
"Technical support of PractiTest is awesome. They are always ready to help in any time zone, which makes them stand out from others."
"PractiTest gives us the opportunity to control the testing process efficiently and saves us a lot of time that we had to spend while using other tools."
"Helped organise the manual test cases so they were documented correctly, which was invaluable as it allowed for reviewing and improving of test scripts so they could be followed by a number of different people which helped with resourcing."
"This is a good solution for a global transnational company."
"Since we started using this product, our organization's testing functionality has really improved."
"The most valuable feature is the way the libraries are structured so that they were not folder driven."
"The automation engine is very strong, and it is very competitive in the market in terms of features. They develop a lot of features."
"It is easy to automate tasks, highly flexible, straightforward to learn, and easy to maintain."
"Multiple scanning engines to automate many different applications."
"The use of automation is most valuable."
"From a positive perspective, I would want people to use the reporting from Tosca."
"The model-based scriptless automation is the most valuable feature because it needs less maintenance as compared to script-based automation."
"Tests written once can be reused across different projects."
"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the extremely fast setup, as you can really get up and running within a very small window of time, and we like the fact that it works across mobile, desktop, web, and APIs, giving the solution a broad range of applications."
 

Cons

"Needs to improve adding the ability to run tests multiple times and setting different parameters."
"There are some features that I would like added: an option to export a part of tests with steps."
"It doesn't allow you to connect to multiple different bug tracking tools at the same time."
"It doesn't allow you to connect to multiple different tracking tools."
"Yes, there are times when server is very slow in response."
"PractiTest practically requires a lot of sandboxing, demos with their team, and online tutorials."
"It does not offer server installation, only software as a service."
"If you need to improve one of the Tosca engines, you have to develop it in the same language, such as C# and Java, so you need more technical experts to help you."
"Many times when we have raised a ticket, we did not get an urgent response."
"It requires some coding customization that requires expertise."
"The support we received from Tricentis Tosca was good, but it can improve."
"The UI does not have the option of automating the scroll bars."
"Parallel execution is not yet implemented for Tosca. This means you can't execute the same test case on multiple machines remotely."
"Because of expensive licenses, if your company is new to the market, do not start a business using Tosca if you expect slow growth - use cheaper solutions instead, and switch to Tosca once you are overwhelmed with projects and work."
"They can make it more stable. I have used this tool for SAP applications. They have an alliance with SAP, and it mostly worked fine, but there were a few glitches. However, we got the required support from the Tricentis team. They are coming up with their new versions and upgrades with respect to how the Tricentis systems as cloud applications are updated, and it would be good if they have a robust accelerator pack."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is probably in the middle, it's not the cheapest but it's not the most expensive."
"Tricentis Tosca is an expensive tool and the licensing is not simple."
"A yearly license costs around 20,000 euros."
"If you are purchasing less than five licenses, then the pricing is high. On a scale from one to ten, with one being low and ten being high pricing, I would rate this solution at eight."
"Pricing for Tricentis Tosca could be improved because it's very expensive."
"The tool is quite expensive."
"It is expensive."
"The tool is expensive. It has become overpriced, especially after Tricentis Tosca grew as a company. Initially, we bought a license with an annual support fee, which wasn't too expensive. However, they changed the model, and now we have to purchase a license yearly, which has become quite costly."
"I rate the price of Tricentis Tosca a two out of five."
