Has reduced the need for scripting knowledge and enabled broader test script creation
The ease of use and zero cost are what I appreciate most about this product. The key for us is their Digital Lab service. With Digital Lab service, you have no control over those devices; you are simply getting an iOS device and using it as it is. Many of our customers are using InTune and other deployment services that have security settings on them. OpenText Functional Testing Lab for Mobile and Web allows us to test with our customers' setup of their device and ensure that the scripts will run against it versus a cloud service that does not have any of their security sizing and cannot truly mimic a real-life scenario. The overall framework of UFT in general helps reduce manual testing efforts for us. The ease of use and being able to enroll more people into developing test scripts using their AI function, which they call AI but is OCR recognition, is significant. By being able to develop scripts that way, you prevent having to know VB script. I have testers who create manual scripts and are already running the test manually; now they can perform that same effort in UFT One, and it creates the scripts so they do not have to recreate them every time. We do use the product's API integrations at some customers, though I am not as familiar with it as some of my colleagues are. My understanding is that for free, you can set up virtual APIs that do not exist yet, allowing you to mimic that behavior even before your APIs have been built. That is a huge selling feature and a significant zero-cost feature in being able to run your API tests even before the API is finished.

Cloud-based testing has simplified remote mobile validation and provides flexible device coverage
I was not impressed with how detailed their analytics and logs are from LambdaTest. The solution we were testing is being used because many of us are working from home. It was easy to implement because with a real phone, we have to bring a real phone to each person. Since three years ago, many employees have been working from home, so we were trying to find a solution for this challenge. We had no need to exploit the information for the analytics generated in the background. The purpose was simply to make it easy for our employees to access a phone. The downsides I noticed include that the pricing was very good, but the visual quality of the image sometimes suffers. The contrast on a real iPhone provides better contrast than with the cloud solution. The only aspect that was less favorable than on a real phone was the contrast of the color.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution provides a controlled device farm with the right devices (selected based on analytics), that are readily available (can be reserved), have the right app and can be used for manual or automated tests."
"There are numerous valuable features such as automation, the ones that facilitate importing and synchronization capabilities between our platform, Jira, and Azure DevOps."
"The fact that it allows users to test on real mobile devices instead of emulators is something that projects have told us is beyond compare."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is virtualization."
"This is a solution that's easy to use and it also gives us the possibility to use real devices connected either on the Mobile Center server or on our own computers and it works with both iOS and Android devices."
"The product is easy to use."
"ROI is definitely present with OpenText Functional Testing Lab for Mobile and Web; these are very capable tools, and there is no reason ROI should be a challenge."
"For automation testing, the tool provides the record and playback option, which helps with object detection easily."
"LambdaTest supports multiple platforms like iOS across different devices and enables real-time testing."
"LambdaTest has helped me gain more customers."
"This product offers out-of-the-box geolocation testing in automation, which is amazing!"
"It is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature is the real-time testing, which helps you to test your website on more than two thousand combinations of browsers and operating systems."
"LambdaTest made a great fit here when considering the latest browsers on the product."
"I am really glad that there are tools like LambdaTest that help freelancers like me to make sure everything is okay before finally making a website live."
"Without a doubt, LambdaTest is one of the big reasons behind our faster deployment and better team collaboration."
 

Cons

"However, it is still a young product that is improving leaps and bounds each release."
"We need to scale devices easily. Some customers would like to loop in AWS or other cloud providers to check if their devices have the cloud factor. OpenText UFT Digital Lab needs to improve it."
"The product's object detection method needs to be improved since it can help testers do perfect testing."
"Digital Lab is a pretty solid product with areas that could be continuously improved on."
"However, in some cases we discovered some issues for HPE support regarding the latest enhancements; the delivery time for these enhancements is not as fast as we would like."
"With versions prior to 2.0 I found that configuration was trickier than it should be, particularly with aspects such as NV."
"We like to host the tools centrally. We would need them to be multi-tenants, so different projects could log on and have their own set of devices and their own set of apps, and they wouldn't see data from other projects that are using it."
"I think the interface is not very good and I have used other solutions that are easier to learn."
"We get logged out of the devices if there is some inactivity."
"LambdaTest needs to have native application testing, which would be a great help to my team."
"There is scope for improvement in service account usage, LDAP integration, and adapting new devices and features."
"Mobile application testing will be an added benefit for us if LambdaTest implements this really soon."
"I've also had some issues with the speed of certain API calls and the rendering of data. For example, when I'm onboarding data, the process can be slow."
"Performing automation testing from UI is a little slow and could be improved."
"I feel that the automated screenshot testing takes a little longer on MacOS sometimes."
"Load flow compared to other stacks needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"OpenText UFT Digital Lab's pricing is average, and I rate it a five out of ten."
"While the pricing may seem relatively high, when compared to competitors, it often falls in line or can even be more cost-effective."
"The product could be more affordable."
"LambdaTest is on the cloud, offers both free and paid plans which start at $19 USD per month."
"It is affordable as compared to similar SaaS solutions."
"The tool is not cheap, but it is not expensive."
"I used the product for free."
"The product can be described as an averagely-priced solution."
"LambdaTest's pricing is cheaper than that of other similar platforms."
"It is 60% cheaper and there is no fuss in maintaining the lab, so we have more time to do the testing."
"It is free to start, which means you can actually see how it works and then take the decision to buy."
