Easy to set up, integrates well with other tools, and maintains traceability in STLC process
There is room for improvement, including the following: * We have limited widgets available in the tool to design UI flow. We would like to see other frequently used widgets like spin boxes, sliders, etc. * The table widget options such as display tables, modify tables, and select rows, should be enhanced. * It would be helpful to have a feature in the tool's UI to map object locators within the system. This will help to maintain automation scripts, keeping them in synchronization with Conformiq models. * Currently, we don't have an integration with the test data management tool. Having this feature will help for generating and maintaining test data.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Conformiq integrates well with various automation tools and auto-generates between 60% and 80% of the automation scripts."
"Conformiq generates a unique and optimized set of test cases, maintains them to the current application version by removing those for obsolete functionality, and, with proper integration to the automation framework, has enabled in-release and in-sprint automation for us."
"This product helps with understanding the design tool for the test case generation without manual writing of test cases in Excel."
"Though optimized and automated test generation is the core functionality, the product's integration with other tools sets it apart."
"The tool has the ability to integrate with various requirement management, test management, and version control tools."
"Integration with Visual Studio (VS): I have used other software management solutions with VS, but TFS is the best at the moment."
"TFS is a good product and you can continue working with it."
"TFS is more stable and more scalable."
"All the features in it are essential for successful development projects, especially version control, defects tracking, SCRUM tools etc."
"Version Control: TFS offers both the centralized “TFVC” version control technology as well as the distributed “Git” version control technology."
"The most valuable feature of TFS is its compatibility with Microsoft Windows systems. We have predominantly Microsoft solutions and TFS work well."
"The full ALM experience that means you can have all your information in one place."
"The most valuable feature is integration, particularly if you have a .NET application because it nicely integrates the CI/CD pipeline where you can automate your build whenever developers check the code."
 

Cons

"I would like to see the output data optionally used as input for the model, as further action in the flow."
"It would be helpful to have a feature in the tool's UI to map object locators within the system."
"We have limited widgets available in the tool to design UI flow."
"Even though the 4.1 version is a far-improved version from its earlier avatars, the performance of test generation is still an issue on real-time models we have."
"Improvements on the List item widget and Table widget are needed."
"More options could be provided from the perspective of requirements management, which would help product owners to use the tool effectively."
"The product access management features and connectivity need improvement. Rights management is also complex and could be simplified."
"Build definition management - there needs to be change control for build definitions"
"There might be some complexity in its off-cloud versions."
"TFS isn't a great tool if you're on the cloud, so the cloud version could be improved."
"Since the TFS was an on-prem solution, the private network accessibility was restricted."
"There are better tools for Agile and CI/CD in the market."
"There should be management of the project built-in."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I wouldn't say that this tool is cheap or expensive but in the middle."
"There is a yearly licensing fee that needs to be paid."
"TFS is not cheap."
"I was working with the engineering team, and that was not under my umbrella. From what I can remember, its license was yearly. They had the licenses on a per-user basis, and they included MTM."
"It is an expensive solution."
"Microsoft products are always expensive. Obviously, they are quality products, but it would be helpful if there was a reduction in price. But compared to other vendors, I think the cost is high."
"I would like to see TFS improve its web interface as there are some limitations with IDs and the integration behind it and with open source tools like VS Code."
"On a scale where ten is the highest and one is the cheapest, I rate the solution's licensing cost at one on a scale of one to ten."
