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."
"This is a good solution for a global transnational company."
"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."
"In addition, we found PractiTest very user-friendly and customizable."
"Converting a couple of these test plans into PractiTest was amazing and made a world of difference."
"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."
"To me, what stands out the most about Tricentis Tosca is that even if I'm not a technical tester, I could pick up on how to use it very quickly because of the mechanisms of the tool, for example, its scanning mechanism. I'm not so technical, but I'm able to maneuver through Tricentis Tosca and derive capability. It's a user-friendly tool. It's not very complex."
"Scriptless SW QA automation provides a very quick on ramp to test automation with little maintenance."
"It has helped teams within our organization become more aware of the testing requirements in terms of risk and priority."
"It allows manual testers to pick up automation, because it is a scriptless tool."
"The most valuable feature is being able to create a test case by recording some scenarios and then leasing that task case to other scenarios."
"This solution is very easy to learn and any non-programmer or manual tester, with little experience in automation, can pick it up quite easily."
"The product is very useful in keeping track of test execution and coverage."
"Licenses are expensive, but they are worth using."
 

Cons

"PractiTest practically requires a lot of sandboxing, demos with their team, and online tutorials."
"Yes, there are times when server is very slow in response."
"It does not offer server installation, only software as a service."
"There are some features that I would like added: an option to export a part of tests with steps."
"Needs to improve adding the ability to run tests multiple times and setting different parameters."
"It doesn't allow you to connect to multiple different bug tracking tools at the same time."
"The connection between the CI client and remote machine dropped off when certain standard Tosca modules were used in the test cases."
"I think the downside would be licensing costs which are very high."
"Product quality has declined as it grows, and its updates aren't without fault. The process of resolving problems has slowed, and as it expands into other areas like NeoLoad and other testing tools, the product becomes more complicated. It used to be a small firm with a clear goal, but as it grows, the quality has been affected."
"Pricing for Tricentis Tosca could be improved as well because it's very expensive."
"You need to spend much more time learning the tool and how to use it, compared to others."
"The support we received from Tricentis Tosca was good, but it can improve."
"I would like to see better integration with other testing tools."
"The technical support services are generally good, though there are areas for improvement regarding response time and overall competence."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is probably in the middle, it's not the cheapest but it's not the most expensive."
"It is expensive. There is also the training cost, but it does speed up the process. So, you get a return on investment."
"I would like to see better costing packs. There are several features but USD $11,000 for one license is expensive."
"A competitor of Tricentis Tosca: Katalon Studio, is very similar and offers lower pricing, though Tricentis Tosca offers more features and benefits."
"Tricentis Tosca is an expensive tool and the licensing is not simple."
"The tool is quite 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."
"It is expensive."
"The pricing is high, but altogether it offers you the ability to automate all sorts of applications: desktop, web, mobile, etc."
