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

"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."
"The most valuable feature is the way the libraries are structured so that they were not folder driven."
"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."
"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."
"Converting a couple of these test plans into PractiTest was amazing and made a world of difference."
"The most valuable features of Tricentis Tosca are the Salesforce scanning. There are two scanning for Salesforce applications. There is Salesforce scanning and normal application scanning. Object identification has been really useful in Tricentis Tosca."
"Compared to the old tools, WinRunner and TestDirector by Mercury Interactive, it accelerated building, performing, and maintaining regression tests by a factor of approximately ten times."
"Tricentis Tosca can be easily integrated with SAP infrastructure."
"It is easy to automate tasks, highly flexible, straightforward to learn, and easy to maintain."
"The most valuable feature is the UI-based interface for building modules and turning modules into test cases."
"It's been very helpful to have connectivity with mobile. The tool also identifies some of the actual changes from the recordings on the actual testing suite. That is something that I really like."
"It was the only way to organize and support automation testing process for our re-insurance tool for underwriters."
"It was very apparent that Tosca was an all-in-one solution because we could do database testing, UI, and API testing, while the other tools we evaluated each focused on only one area."
 

Cons

"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."
"It doesn't allow you to connect to multiple different tracking tools."
"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."
"It doesn't allow you to connect to multiple different bug tracking tools at the same time."
"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."
"A disadvantage of Tricentis Tosca is that you have to customize it according to your need, during the early stages of the software, particularly during upstream testing, before system and unit testing."
"The product's test case management functionality needs enhancement."
"What needs to be improved in Tricentis Tosca is its centralized repository mechanism because it's not as flexible. The repository in the solution where you store the data and the script for test automation is quite an old-fashioned mechanism that could be improved."
"The initial setup was complex."
"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."
"The issue is that even though the components are tightly integrated, object identification can be quite slow, sometimes taking five to ten seconds."
"I would like to see more implementation of AI on the self-healing aspect. That would be like the next step."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is probably in the middle, it's not the cheapest but it's not the most expensive."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. It is on the higher side."
"The pricing of the solution comes as part of our Tosca bundle."
"My understanding is that it's an expensive product, although I don't know the specifics with regards to pricing."
"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."
"I give the cost of Tricentis Tosca a six out of seven."
"Tricentis Tosca is not expensive at all."
"A yearly license costs around 20,000 euros."
"I rate the price of Tricentis Tosca a two out of five."
