I would like to see some improvements in Adaptive Test Management for Jira. First, having a recommendation engine or feature that guides handling risks more intuitively rather than relying on manual processes would be helpful. Second, enhancing the connectivity with third-party tools like Teams or Slack would be valuable. One challenge with integrating Adaptavist Test Management for Jira into workflows is ensuring it accurately tags and incorporates all relevant stories and epics. Sometimes, it’s unclear if the tool considers all dependencies and backlog items, which can affect how risks are assessed. However, it sometimes seems to miss this high-level perspective, which can be a limitation based on how the product is designed. This has been a concern for those who use it regularly, although I don’t manage these aspects personally.

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

"The program is very stable and scalable."
"You can group test cases together and track the execution of them."
"Our software development process primarily uses Adaptive Test Management for Jira to monitor real-time risks across all stories and sprint planning. Additionally, we use it to create action plans for high-priority risks."
"We don't use technical support. We have an office in Austria that provides us with solutions. Also, this solution is pretty simple and user-friendly. We don't really need help with it."
"Test Management for Jira provides a repository for our test cases."
"My impression of the stability is very positive."
"The program is very stable, and that is why we have so much success with it."
"It is a scalable solution."
"This product contains a lot of functionality; it can provide all levels of testing from design to execution to reporting, and I like it because everything is available in one place."
"The features I find most valuable in Tricentis Tosca are that it's the easiest way to build the scripts and to do the CI/CD process; using Tricentis Tosca is very useful and easy."
"The solution has improved our time to release on production; everything is automated now, which makes everything move faster."
"Our organization is completely based on automation of the activities."
"Tricentis Tosca is different and better, because it has a reusable model, whereas the others do not."
"What I find valuable is that Tricentis is always refining the test methodology."
"Testsuite accomplishes what a lot of different tools did before."
"Before implementing Tosca, the average time that we took for completing regression was about four days, and after we started using Tosca, it has been reduced to six hours."
 

Cons

"Capability for scalability is basic, it's not as sophisticated as I would like."
"I would like to see some improvements in Adaptive Test Management for Jira. First, having a recommendation engine or feature that guides handling risks more intuitively rather than relying on manual processes would be helpful. Second, enhancing the connectivity with third-party tools like Teams or Slack would be valuable."
"I don't like that you need to use a lot of tabs. One test case takes 15-20 minutes and on Zephyr it takes about 5-10 minutes."
"Lacking visual gadgets that go on a dashboard, pie charts, bar charts and histograms."
"Something that needs to improve is the model of the licensing. For instance, if you have two packs from two servers, you need to buy two licenses."
"They should work on integrating the solution with AI."
"They need to improve on the reports after the execution of automation tests, since all the current organizations are looking for detailed graphical reports."
"It requires some coding customization that requires expertise, so having free services along with the licenses would be good."
"I would like to see more implementation of AI on the self-healing aspect. That would be like the next step."
"The stability and reliability of Tricentis Tosca is just 60% for me."
"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."
"Parallel execution is not yet implemented for Tosca. This means you can't execute the same test case on multiple machines remotely."
"The Vision AI implementation works very slowly, affecting the speed of our work. The exploratory testing feature is not working for version 2023.1, which we are currently using."
"10.3 was not stable enough for my expectations."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's pricing is a bit expensive, considering the kind of risk analysis and visibility we want, given that it's built on top of the Jira platform and other Atlassian products. It's priced slightly higher than similar products, maybe five to ten percent more."
"The licensing is rather expensive for those that have many users."
"Tricentis Tosca may be relatively on the higher side in terms of pricing, but their sales rep can give pretty decent deals when asked."
"Pricing could be better."
"There is an annual cost for Tricentis."
"Expensive, but for long-term projects, it is paying back."
"I would like to see better costing packs. There are several features but USD $11,000 for one license is expensive."
"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
"We have around 200 [concurrent] licenses and the cost around $1.4 million a year."
"Although the product is slightly more expensive than tools, its automation capabilities and reduced scripting needs justify the cost."
