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

"This is a good solution for a global transnational company."
"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."
"Technical support of PractiTest is awesome. They are always ready to help in any time zone, which makes them stand out from others."
"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."
"In addition, we found PractiTest very user-friendly and customizable."
"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."
"Converting a couple of these test plans into PractiTest was amazing and made a world of difference."
"Tricentis Tosca has completely met our requirements."
"We've found TBox to be valuable for scanning applications and automating test cases."
"The product enables codeless automation."
"I liked the "no required scripting" part as most of the people in my team are not skilled QAs and half of the team reside offshore, thus it suited to most of our requirements."
"We switched to Tosca because it's a no-code solution, so people without coding skills can also use it, and if you have an in-depth understanding of the Tosca framework, you can easily automate any complex application."
"I would recommend this solution to others."
"It can provide all levels of testing from design to execution to reporting."
"The mainframe testing and UI automation are the most valuable aspects of the solution."
 

Cons

"It doesn't allow you to connect to multiple different tracking tools."
"It does not offer server installation, only software as a service."
"It doesn't allow you to connect to multiple different bug tracking tools at the same time."
"Yes, there are times when server is very slow in response."
"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."
"Needs to improve adding the ability to run tests multiple times and setting different parameters."
"The solution needs to improve its simulation of mobile environments. Right now, that aspect is really lacking."
"I would like a better user interface."
"Tricentis Tosca's performance could be better. Sometimes when we are remapping or when it is loading it can take a lot of time."
"Making it more stable would be good because we get around 90% stability."
"It did not improve because the GUI was not static, so it was not possible to write tests for a GUI that was in progress."
"Primarily I'm dealing with customers looking for a cheap solution, and they are willing to try open-source automation solutions. So from this perspective, the price of Tosca is not as competitive."
"Tricentis Tosca is an expensive solution and there is an annual license required. The whole licensing process is confusing and it could be made easier."
"Run time test execution status: They have improved on this a bit by introducing a progress bar. However, it can be further improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is probably in the middle, it's not the cheapest but it's not the most expensive."
"Tricentis Tosca may be relatively on the higher side in terms of pricing, but their sales rep can give pretty decent deals when asked."
"We have around 200 [concurrent] licenses and the cost around $1.4 million a year."
"Expensive, but for long-term projects, it is paying back."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. It is on the higher side."
"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
"There are two licenses: single user and multiple user. A multiple-user license means that several people can work together on one project and collaborate on code stored in a central location. A single-user license is for people working alone on a one particular application. It's much cheaper than a multi-user workspace. If you are getting a large volume of licenses for an enterprise, you can probably negotiate a discount, but I'm not sure about that."
"The pricing is high, but altogether it offers you the ability to automate all sorts of applications: desktop, web, mobile, etc."
"It is expensive. There is also the training cost, but it does speed up the process. So, you get a return on investment."
