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

"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."
"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."
"The product is very useful in keeping track of test execution and coverage."
"The use of automation is most valuable."
"I would definitely recommend this product to my colleagues or my friends because it is very useful if they are using the Tosca Query Language (TQL)."
"It allows manual testers to pick up automation, because it is a scriptless tool."
"Tricentis Tosca is a fast-pace, ever-evolving test automation tool that can solve today's testing requirements and provide fast feedback."
"I would rate the scalability a nine out of ten. We have enterprise-level customers."
"Tosca lets you jot down your requirements, design test cases, automate and analyse your test results within one GUI."
"Overall, this is a good product and I definitely recommend it."
 

Cons

"There are some features that I would like added: an option to export a part of tests with steps."
"It does not offer server installation, only software as a service."
"Yes, there are times when server is very slow in response."
"It doesn't allow you to connect to multiple different tracking tools."
"Needs to improve adding the ability to run tests multiple times and setting different parameters."
"PractiTest practically requires a lot of sandboxing, demos with their team, and online tutorials."
"It doesn't allow you to connect to multiple different bug tracking tools at the same time."
"It needs better integration with JIRA."
"Tosca's reporting features could be better. Tricentis had a reporting tool called Analytics, but it didn't function properly after they reworked it. After that, they tried a new approach with key-tracing, and that didn't work."
"Setup wasn't that straightforward; it was more complex. It all depends on the environment, because there were a lot of errors on our applications. Therefore, it wasn't an easy setup for us."
"The issue is that even though the components are tightly integrated, object identification can be quite slow, sometimes taking five to ten seconds."
"The product needs to improve object identification. The identify with properties and anchor methods work perfectly, while the by-index and image methods may face challenges."
"The solution needs to improve its simulation of mobile environments. Right now, that aspect is really lacking."
"10.3 was not stable enough for my expectations."
"Setup wasn't that straightforward; it was more complex. It all depends on the environment, because there were a lot of errors on our applications."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is probably in the middle, it's not the cheapest but it's not the most expensive."
"There are different types of licenses: enterprise or professional. The cost varies."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. It is on the higher side."
"Expensive, but for long-term projects, it is paying back."
"Tricentis Tosca is not expensive at all."
"I give the cost of Tricentis Tosca a six out of seven."
"I'm not sure if I'm at liberty to talk about the pricing, but it has some significant costs. For example, you have to pay a license and maintenance fee. Then the rest of the terms are negotiable. We have to consider what we need and what benefit we get from it."
"The pricing and licensing of Tricentis Tosca were alright. Many customers look for end-to-end enterprise solutions, there were not many challenges with the pricing. However, the customers who are coming from Selenium or similar, feel they're paying a premium for this Tricentis Tosca license. If the right person is there for the implementation of the Tricentis Tosca, then it is one of the best tools in the market."
"The price of the tool is a problem for a lot of Brazilian clients or Latino clients, as it is expensive. Where I work, if one is low price and ten is high price, I rate the tool's price as a ten out of ten."
