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

"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."
"In addition, we found PractiTest very user-friendly and customizable."
"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."
"Technical support of PractiTest is awesome. They are always ready to help in any time zone, which makes them stand out from others."
"Converting a couple of these test plans into PractiTest was amazing and made a world of difference."
"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."
"This is a good solution for a global transnational company."
"Overall, I rate Tricentis Tosca as a ten out of ten."
"For a manual tester who wants to become an automation specialist with no programming skills, this is the right tool for the future."
"We are satisfied with the support of Tricentis."
"I am impressed with the product's script test."
"Overall the solution is easy to use compared to any other tools, it's very easy to organize and develop."
"I rate the overall solution a ten out of ten as I am satisfied with it."
"Multiple scanning engines to automate many different applications."
"It offers many features, such as risk-based testing and scenario creation using Kafka."
 

Cons

"There are some features that I would like added: an option to export a part of tests with steps."
"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 doesn't allow you to connect to multiple different tracking tools."
"Yes, there are times when server is very slow in response."
"Needs to improve adding the ability to run tests multiple times and setting different parameters."
"It does not offer server installation, only software as a service."
"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."
"Most of us have had the complaint that loop statements are missing, without which testing in reality was difficult, as many times test scenarios needed to be run in iteration and version 8.4 has included this feature."
"You need to spend much more time learning the tool and how to use it, compared to others."
"It requires some coding customization that requires expertise, so having free services along with the licenses would be good."
"The document object model or some aspects of it has a bit of a learning curve."
"There should be ease of data manipulation within automation test cases."
"I would like to be able to manage different projects in one repository or have better data exchange between repositories."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is probably in the middle, it's not the cheapest but it's not the most expensive."
"Pricing could be better."
"The pricing of the solution comes as part of our Tosca bundle."
"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."
"We have around 200 [concurrent] licenses and the cost around $1.4 million a year."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is very cheap and ten is very expensive, I rate the pricing a ten. The licensing model is based on a yearly basis."
"A competitor of Tricentis Tosca: Katalon Studio, is very similar and offers lower pricing, though Tricentis Tosca offers more features and benefits."
"Expensive, but for long-term projects, it is paying back."
"Tricentis Tosca may be relatively on the higher side in terms of pricing, but their sales rep can give pretty decent deals when asked."
