OpenText UFT Developer Reviews

We create workload models based on requirements, which vary by company. We also create scenarios to simulate real-world environments. 

The main objectives are stress testing, endurance testing, and spike testing, all for performance testing. We monitor the application using tools like LoadRunner or JMeter and provide reports to clients.

For functional testing, we use various checkpoints, like verifying if elements are enabled when we click on a page. These are GUI checkpoints. There are also text recognition, accessibility, and database checkpoints. You can insert these checkpoints into the script and validate them when you run it. 

Selenium has similar functionality, but you have to code it yourself. In UFT, it's a simple click to insert the checkpoints. 

Another great feature in UFT is synchronization. It ensures that the next line of code executes only after a page is fully loaded. You can do the same in Selenium, but you have to write the code manually.

Our use case involves functionality for a system ERP. We work with Deviation, which is stable and receives positive feedback from users.

OpenText UFT Developer allows junior testers to learn through open source and online resources like YouTube. They can find solutions to issues even if the solution does not work with them initially.

We use Micro Focus UFT Developer to perform functional testing on both a desktop application and a web application.

One aspect that I like about Micro Focus UFT Developer is the ability to integrate it into a testing framework as a library.

They have LeanFT Library. This is the reason we choose this tool, we can It's because it can combine and integrate with any unit. 

We primarily use the solution in order to test functionality on other applications. It does have the capability of screengrabbing, recording, test automation, implementation of test cases, et cetera. It's called Unified Functional Test and therefore it does these functional requirements of the application in question.

Let's say that we're going to test yahoo.com and there're changes on the yahoo.com page. You can either hire a whole bunch of people to test every button, every functionality, every menu that exists on yahoo.com, or you can use UFT to record one session and then play it back a thousand times. You can either hire a thousand people or hire one person to record that session. And then you can execute the test case a thousand times. It saves a lot of time and resources for a company, in that sense.

We have many data centers, and the infrastructure for these is moving to the Amazon cloud. They are working towards a total transformation. We have a lot of mobile applications. Some of these are Java-based, but a number of them are Angular and Ionic-based. Here, our usage is as a simple record and playback utility. We perform unit testing as a one-off operation, and once we complete development tasks, we do the unit testing. Our developers only have two machines, one for .NET and one for Java. There is no commitment to buy these tools by their licensed permit.

We haven't got the full suite. We had only UFT regular 14.53. They have now the UFT Developer. This is for the developers to perform unit testing. It improves our testing processes.

We've used it across various technologies, including automation for web applications and SAP, as HP partnered with SAP for that integration. We've tried it on all platforms.

There are many good things. Like it is intuitive and scripting was easy.  Plus the availability of experienced resources in India due to its market leadership.

I am a software developer and at my company, we use this solution for testing a banking ATM application that is written in C#. There is a customer screen that is part of a simulator for physical devices and different scenarios such as card and PIN entry have to be tested. Example test cases can be things like insufficient funds to dispense or it does not have the required bills. Another might be that the printer raises a hardware error. There are approximately 500 scenarios to test and in some, it will reject the transaction.

We have UFT deployed on a TFS server and the test agents are running the scenarios on virtual machines.

The most valuable feature is the automation of test cases.

Micro Focus UFT Developer's main focus is on your desktop application and web applications. 

The most valuable feature of Micro Focus UFT Developer is the flexibility to work with many different types of software.
