Kevin Copple

Sr. Quality Assurance Project Manager at a tech services company with 501-1,000 employees

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.

Automation has delivered strong ROI with AI-driven test prioritization and parallel reporting

The best feature of Worksoft Certify is the automatic report generation. Unlike traditional tools like Selenium or Java-based frameworks where reporting often requires custom coding, Certify handles this natively. We are currently utilizing the 14.5 version, which has modernized these capabilities, though we frequently manage backward compatibility for clients still running on the 12.x version series.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We escalate tickets to HPE, and we don't have problems."

"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 most valuable feature of this solution is virtualization."

"This helped my prior organization immensely due to the ability to remotely manipulate devices, even by offshore vendors."

"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."

"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."

"In general, in my opinion, Mobile Center is a good product that allows us to do everything we need to automate application testing for mobile."

"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."

More OpenText Functional Testing Lab for Mobile and Web pros

"Worksoft is a good tool to start with as it is a codeless tool."

"This solution has enabled us to automate in order to tremendously save time."

"LiveTouch is the best feature of Worksoft Certify; live touching the objects is very beneficial, and we can use the dynamic windows and objects."

"People focus on what they actually want to test and define it in a more detailed way. It shines a light on what they are testing, along with the speed and adaptability."

"The most valuable feature is the ability to automate quickly and to maintain and update scripts."

"The solution has cut our clients' test maintenance time for changes, like patches or system upgrades; they used to take a lot of time until the production validation completed, and now it is just seconds until it is ready, so they can do executions within a couple of minutes."

"We get feedback from all areas that the return on investment is there, not just regarding time savings but also cost reduction."

"A significant positive impact is that Worksoft Certify requires no coding skills, unlike most other automation tools, as it is a codeless tool that anyone can easily learn and use for automation while also offering CTM to schedule suites and BPP to generate reports so we can develop end-to-end scripts, perform API testing, and conduct web automation across 29 supported interfaces including SAP GUI, S/4HANA, MS Office, Notepad, and PDF automation."

More Worksoft Certify pros

Cons

"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."

"However, it is still a young product that is improving leaps and bounds each release."

"The product's object detection method needs to be improved since it can help testers do perfect testing."

"OpenText Functional Testing Lab for Mobile and Web could benefit from implementing a low-code, no-code solution that aids in quick automation code preparation."

"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."

"Digital Lab is a pretty solid product with areas that could be continuously improved on."

"Sometimes, it's challenging to have relations with OpenText support."

"I think the interface is not very good and I have used other solutions that are easier to learn."

More OpenText Functional Testing Lab for Mobile and Web cons

"When it is unstable, there will be times when a test that we are running in Certify will just stop, and it will say, "Aborted." There will be errors. There will be no explanation as to why it happens. It has now happened maybe one out of 20 times. When it happens, I just tell our QA team to stop Certify and restart it, hoping we don't see it again."

"The problem with Worksoft Certify is that it's not always stable. It runs on a live platform that's constantly changing, so the test script needs to be adjusted every time, which is very painful."

"One feature that we have been asking for has been to treat tests as code and store the source code for tests in a configuration management tool."

"If we can import process from other automation tools like UiPath, Selenium, or Automation Anywhere, then it would be more helpful."

"With the codeless process automation across packaged applications, once in a while, if we get a weird application that's not widely used, it gets a little stickier. First, the software has to learn the fields, so you have to identify all the fields. Once you do that, as long as there isn’t any non-standard code in the application, then it works fine. But there's that one step that you have to do, a step you don't have to do with SAP and Salesforce, for example."

"Sometimes we are facing crashes and downtime. Even our script will terminate in between the execution."

"We ran into some issues with the version that we were on during the initial setup. We ran into a bug on one version, then they upgraded us to a new version, and we got hit with another bug. So, they had to put us in a beta. That was a little frustrating. However, besides the bugs that we ran into, the install was pretty straightforward."

"Worksoft Certify's support team should respond more promptly when we are stuck with certain issues and looking for a solution."

More Worksoft Certify cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product could be more affordable."

"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."

"This solution has enabled us to automate in order to tremendously save time. Only first time when you are recording and creating the script will you spend some time with it, the rest of the time, you are just executing."

"The initial upfront cost in terms of licenses, plus all the money that we spent developing tests, has proven it's worth. Now, we can do a regression test suite in ten days as opposed to sixteen weeks."

"I'm not aware of any licensing costs for Worksoft Certify."

"In general, they changed their license model. Before you had to buy licenses for each component, and now they changed it so you can buy a license and use it for nearly all their applications."

"Cost-wise, compared with other tools, it is a great product."

"I think they came out with a different type of licensing specifically for testing. Therefore, you don't have to use a more expensive user license, you can use an automation license. So potentially, if we had 100 use cases, we could spin up a 100 different machines, have them all run and be done in five minutes. That would be the goal, but I don't know if that would actually succeed or not."

"We no longer need ten people sitting and manually testing something. We can just have one person running the entire regression automation testing suite, and this has saved us dollars."

"The typical range that we see is between 50 to 90 percent improvement in speed capabilities. Another aspect comes with the depth that they're able to test. It increases their capabilities overall to test at a broader level."
