Replied to Leah Fainchtein Buenavida How does Micro Focus UFT One compare to Tricentis Tosca?
@Leah Fainchtein Buenavida I am always surprised when someone does not realize the "U" in UFT stands for "Unified" UFT is a combination of two products: Service Test (API) and QuickTest Pro (GUI) testing. It's two products for the price of one. Plus it has Test Combinations…

Answered a question: What is SAP testing? How is it different from non SAP testing?
RAM’s answer below is very detailed.
The reason SAP automation is sonchallenging is the element descriptions in the DOM are all in German. This is the reason the jobs make little sense. VA1 is initials for Vert - Sales in German.

Thanks Don
You make an excellent point!
While I personally have not printed code for several years, it is something missing compared to other IDEs. Both Eclipse and IntelliJ have a Print Code functionality.
Eclipse has a basic print from a the active window.

Answered a question: Which Would You Recommend To Your Boss, OWASP Zap or PortSwigger Burp?
I’ll have to ask my community. I have had just passing experience with PortSwaggler and I know OWASP has a list of website security best dev

MicroFocus just did a demo with me on their product Fortify. It runs…

Commented on AngularJS support, Data Generation and New Spy feature are great, but creeping “Click-itis” sours user experience.

Contributed a review of OpenText ALM / Quality Center: Range of supported technology expands, but odd IDE design still leave newbies and pro users alike disappointed.

I have been working with ALM clients on and off for several years back to when it was Mercury's Test Director. While it has improved significantly, I'm disappointed that HP chose to reinvent with Octane rather than inprove the existing product. If they could just get…

Answered a question: How does Digite's Swift ALM tool compare with HPE ALM or JIRA?
Reading what Rene wrote: I agree with him. And he knows BluePrint integration better than me. Follow his advice.

Answered a question: How does Digite's Swift ALM tool compare with HPE ALM or JIRA?
Just to be clear HP QC (Quality Center) is the old name for HP ALM/ALM Octane. And I know BluePrint has at least one former HP employee. So I think getting integration between those two tools should be possible. It's possible you already have what you need in QC, but not…

Answered a question: How does Digite's Swift ALM tool compare with HPE ALM or JIRA?
This is the first I have heard of Digite Swift ALM. I work with HP ALM for and I know others work with HP ALM Octane
I would suggest you add a list of your disconnected tools.
That way you can know for sure of integration, otherwise it's difficult to give an accurate…

Hi Anshika
First I agree the trial period should be longer - you really need six weeks to get into the tool.
Next there is a .Net Add-On with UFT. The important thing to remember is that there are about 15 supported technology Add-ons. Turning on all, or more that you…

Great advice in using a Citrix Server. Another advantage is that with Jenkins in the mix you can check out code changes via a tool like Subversion (SVN). You can be sure the latest automation code is always deployed before running tests.

Great review. Particularly about getting training to learn about all the features this tool has, as it is everything and the kitchen sink for automation. Most recently I pulled off a spellcheck requirement with it
I also see the stability issues which are more prevalent…

As one who has installed, configured, customized, administrated, demoed and used ALM/Quality Center/Test Director I have to agree this review is spot on! ALM is customizable to a fault
If you do experience stability issues in ALM, look first to any customizations you may…

Don that is a difficult question to answer accurately. Someone who knows Selenium proficiently would probably be able to design a solution in a few hours, probably no more than two working days. With LeanFT in the mix the development of the object identification code for all…

Commented on QTP Sucks Selenium Rules
Too bad I don't see the date you posted this. When you say QTP does not support FF 3.6 it tells me you don't keep up with the patches or the PAM. The memory allocation issue says the same, but the support guy was amiss to not direct you to the patch. Not sure what the…
