AKSHAYRATHI

Senior engineer at Nagarro

End-to-end regression automation has accelerated delivery and now secures complex test data

I think Tosca can be improved, particularly in AI capabilities because right now Tosca does not have any strong API capabilities. It has some AI features in the newer version, but many organizations have not adopted these due to version-specific problems, as some are still using older versions. From an AI point of view, they can enhance reliability since the world is moving towards AI, and every tool must be integrated. While Tosca has made attempts, I have not used them and they are not widely adopted, so they are stuck in the testing phase in my organization. I would also mention that while I am currently using Tosca Mobile, the loading part and connectivity issues need improvement. They should better integrate AI features that are already present but not widely used across many organizations. Reliability on the AI aspect needs enhancement for practical application. From the perspective of governance and security, I believe Tosca can develop its own LLM or leverage third-party LLMs while maintaining security and risk management regarding client data. Many companies prefer using Tosca due to data security, which is crucial. An in-house LLM could significantly enhance its debugging power and provide helpful solutions upon test case failure.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The URL is very useful, and it has a very good UI for deploying information of the scenarios created."

"The data table that helps in converting a single script to multiple test cases is very helpful."

"The power of Hiptest is its test cases and campaign management."

"The best thing is that a person without knowledge about the program can easily understand what happened in our testing process."

"CucumberStudio aligns with our strategy for data-driven testing."

"The most valuable feature is the re-usability of action words."

"The most valuable feature of CucumberStudio is its use of action words, which allows me to avoid writing test cases from scratch for the most common scenarios."

"Hiptest is a great test management tool for agile teams."

More CucumberStudio pros

"It is easy to maintain and easy to automate. No coding skills are required to automate. It is also easy in terms of transferring knowledge and skills. Many of my team members shifted over the past one and a half years, and there was no big issue with respect to knowledge sharing. It is a good tool that enables me to re-automate my scripts and update my scripts as quickly as possible. Looking at the amount of rework and maintenance activity that we had done for our scripts, it might have been a nightmare with some other scripting tool."

"The primary driver for us is that it puts automation into the hands of non-technical testers."

"It offers many features, such as risk-based testing and scenario creation using Kafka."

"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."

"Customer Service: Best I have ever seen. Technical Support: Best I have ever seen."

"Tricentis Tosca is a really cool tool that you don't have to be technical to use it. Additionally, the solution is easy to use. The modules, libraries, and reusable are in an efficient way to update all the tests. I find it spot on with that. We also started using the design which we switched from Excel. The design was superior to Excel."

"The product helps us to create very accurate test cases."

"The solution has plenty of features compared to other solutions."

More Tricentis Tosca pros

Cons

"Another kind of deployment might be useful, perhaps an option to install the tool in a local deployment."

"More tutorials and examples."

"The reporting and metrics can be improved. E.g.: If we wanted to have metrics across all projects."

"I would like to see better customer support."

"CucumberStudio's API integration could be improved both in terms of reliability and design."

"Yes, it is not stable when you create a data table that includes more than 30 elements, so it can lose your data."

"The reporting needs to be improved."

"A key area for improvement is to revamp outdated components such as HipTest publisher."

More CucumberStudio cons

"There have been some setbacks because of upgrades. While Tosca has been around for a while, Tricentis has catered to smaller clients and I don't think they have done such a large, at-scale transition or transformation before or worked with a company like ours, which is doing an enterprise-wide transformation. When we go to their customer advisory-board meetings, upgrades have been an issue. They have been working a lot to make upgrades seamless."

"They can make it more stable. I have used this tool for SAP applications. They have an alliance with SAP, and it mostly worked fine, but there were a few glitches. However, we got the required support from the Tricentis team. They are coming up with their new versions and upgrades with respect to how the Tricentis systems as cloud applications are updated, and it would be good if they have a robust accelerator pack."

"I would like to see more implementation of AI on the self-healing aspect. That would be like the next step."

"The product is not very stable when used with cloud storage. It is very hard to load the screen, making it difficult to use the tool in cloud storage."

"So far, all our issues have had to do with our unfamiliarity with the product."

"If you need to improve one of the Tosca engines, you have to develop it in the same language, such as C# and Java, so you need more technical experts to help you."

"With regard to areas of improvement, report customization should be easier. It would be good if Tosca could provide standard reports for at least 20 variants. At present, there are only three to four variants. The mobile engine needs to be faster and easier to use; it is a bit cumbersome. Also, the object identification in the mobile engine needs improvement. I would like to see easy-to-use customizations for reports in the next release."

"The stability and reliability of Tricentis Tosca is just 60% for me."
