AVP - Testing & QA at Laminaar Aviation
Offers unique object identification, ideal for UI layer regression automation but limited scalability
Performance is one key area for improvement. It can be slower compared to other tools I've used. Secondly, we have a very limited resource pool that uses this tool in India. So, finding resources familiar with Eggplant in India is challenging due to lack of affiliation programs and so on.
AKSHAYRATHI - PeerSpot reviewer
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

"We've been really fortunate in that we've had virtually zero downtime in all the time we've been using Eggplant."
"It's been a revelation to us in terms of its ability to assist us in exploratory testing and to integrate with our current model-driven architecture."
"We find the solution stable and scalable."
"Customer Service: Excellent and very personal."
"It is not a conventional test automation tool. It uses optical character recognition (OCR) to identify objects. It makes it the best in the class."
"We don't have a big team of people that can watch the dials and check that everything is okay. We're doing a lot of the monitoring of our website and our product at the side of the desk. We need a solution that does a lot for us, and that's what Eggplant does."
"I like how the modules are set up, particularly how you can use the screens you're automating. This automation helps save both time and money because we use less test capacity regarding personnel."
"Overall, everything is reusable simply via drag and drop, and you will always have a single point of maintenance (e.g. in a future release of your SUT a button was added, you just need adapt the module. Linked test cases and execution lists are updated automatically)."
"The automation engine is very strong, and it is very competitive in the market in terms of features. They develop a lot of features."
"The technical support is good, we were satisfied."
"We have, within the first six months, been able to automate 85% of our critical business processes and we have been able to maintain that while keeping our BCR ratio down, and we have also seen about 234 defects per month in production drop to less than 8."
"The XScan was great because it was a handy way to automate on a surface which made it very easy and simple."
"I would recommend this solution to others."
"We have seen an ROI because we are able to automate test scripts much quicker."
 

Cons

"Bugs occur fairly frequently, but they are very responsive in identifying them and scheduling them for fixes in future releases."
"One area I can think of to improve is the usability of the reports that we get."
"I'd like to see the ability to integrate the user experience through device forms like AWS device forms or source labs."
"Performance is one key area for improvement. It can be slower compared to other tools I've used."
"Technical support used to be better. It is now a bit difficult to reach out compared to previous experiences."
"Not part of my job, but during the upgrade our IT departmend faced several issues in the installation process of the new version."
"ScratchBook execution needs to be improved as Tosca crashes multiple times."
"So far, all our issues have had to do with our unfamiliarity with the product."
"I would like to see more implementation of AI on the self-healing aspect. That would be like the next step."
"It did not improve because the GUI was not static, so it was not possible to write tests for a GUI that was in progress."
"Do not buy this tool if you simply need a driver for your automation, as open source solutions (e.g. Selenium), or technology specific solutions are more suitable here."
"Needs a UI to visualize the test case development."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is competitive in India."
"Eggplant came out as the most competitive in terms of commercials (terms and conditions) which was positive. When we did the initial negotiations, Eggplant started at a price but they were open to negotiations and we did negotiate a discount. That was really important to us because it showed a level of commitment to us."
"There is an annual cost for Tricentis."
"Expensive, but for long-term projects, it is paying back."
"Tricentis Tosca should improve its pricing. It is expensive."
"If you are purchasing less than five licenses, then the pricing is high. On a scale from one to ten, with one being low and ten being high pricing, I would rate this solution at eight."
"Pricing could be better."
"The price of the tool is a problem for a lot of Brazilian clients or Latino clients, as it is expensive. Where I work, if one is low price and ten is high price, I rate the tool's price as a ten out of ten."
"​It is an expensive tool compared to other test automation tools. It has a lot of advantages over other tools."
"In terms of the licensing costs for Tricentis Tosca, we are spending more or less $70,000 per year. We have a very complex mechanism because there are some business users and some BI users, so the licensing structure is not simple, but support is included."
