Rishabh-Sharma - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Engineer at Cignity Technology
Requires little maintenance, is stable, and easy to deploy
Oracle Application Testing Suite can improve by covering more browsers as compared to other solutions because they're considering the Edge browser as well, but the solution is working on different Windows operating platforms. For example, in our current Windows 2012 R2 server, if I want to automate the Edge browser, I need to upgrade that particular Windows to Windows 10.1 or some other Windows platform, because it's not supported in Windows 2012 feature. That is an issue. If cross-browsers can be incorporated, then support should be provided. There should be a single operating system where everything can be incorporated. I have faced issues with some indexing items. For example, the solution is able to derive some properties from the screen, such as button locations or text locations, but there are some elements, for example, unnamed buttons or text, where there is no name or ID or any other identifying information. Indexing doesn't always work, and we have to go to those elements manually and inspect them to determine their class, and then input that information into the system.

Offers good stability and robust but lacks generative AI capabilities
Technical support is equally very important. If you talk about anything deployed to production, and the project is live, customers are using that, and they might face some issues, some functional issues. That's when support people play a role in identifying the fix or the incident. Based on that, we create an incident based on the customer defect or whatever. Once the incident gets raised, the support will play a role in working on that particular incident. If it's a code-based incident, administration, or integration issue, support people play a big role in resolving those issues before reaching the exact developers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"My advice to others is if they are using any Oracle Cloud Fusion-based or on-premise-based application, this is a good solution to use."
"This tool did a much better job recording the http requests during web load testing than other open source tools."
"This is the best tool I have used till today as it allows us to handle automation in variety of ways."
"Overall, Oracle Application Testing Suite is very easy to use and you can create a good framework for developing and testing."
"The Product as a whole is an integrated package with excellent co-relation with all Oracle Applications and any web-based application."
"Helps us to reduce the workload to check the system."
"For a few years, OATS was the only tool that allowed us to load test our Computer Telephone Integration (CTI) with Siebel."
"We find the front-end interface of this solution to be very user-friendly, meaning easy navigation even for novice users."
"Yes, it allowed us to scale mobile testing across the globe."
"Sauce Connect gave us ability to test an application that was hosted locally."
"From an infrastructure support perspective, the number of VMs, browsers installations and versions that we would be maintaining without Sauce Labs would be a lot. This includes not only the infrastructure costs, but also the maintenance costs and people's time. The labor cost associated with maintaining all of that would be considerably high. In terms of efficiency, having concurrent VMs with various browser combinations available has allowed us to run multiple executions by all our teams."
"Testing is very fast with this tool."
"However, Sauce Labs is incredibly easy to use and has enabled me to make some changes so that the sites are (almost) universal across the range of devices and versions."
"I find that the multitude of browser and OS versions are very helpful for broadening testing scope."
"Sauce Labs has helped us a lot in resolving these issues."
"Sauce Labs is a reliable vendor, and you can trust their network."
 

Cons

"The test installation pretty much destroyed my computer’s laptop performance."
"I would like to see better dashboards."
"To provide test automation support for other products like SAP, Windows and Java Applications when it comes to Functional Test Automation testing."
"I have faced issues with some indexing items."
"I would rate their technical support 2.5 out of ten."
"I think that licensing policies could be more intuitive; when we installed this application for the first time, we couldn't understand why there were only two users."
"It does not provide easy diagnostics to ascertain end to end transaction monitoring."
"The dashboards need to be simplified and made more user-friendly."
"Not really sure. Maybe a .NET test runner option?"
"It's a little bit slow sometimes."
"Another feature that could still be improved on is more error clarity. Sometimes when running automated scripts the test will fail on the device side instead of the script and errors only show a 500 try again message instead of a detailed script that could have been a timeout error from the code."
"The ability to configure the memory and CPU for the test machines should be included."
"There have been various times throughout the last month or so where the service has gone down during business hours."
"Progress towards reducing application testing time can be made."
"If I had to speak of an area that could be improved it would probably have to be the speed of interaction with the devices."
"The connectivity needs improvement."

"There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"The price of the Oracle Application Testing Suite is not expensive. It is less expensive than other solutions."
"The complete package, including load testing and performance analysis, has a licensing fee."
"Customers need to negotiate properly to get the tool at a lower price."
"It could be less like pay-per-use with a lower rate."
"Try the free trial and work with a Sauce Labs representative to see what package works best for your application(s)."
"Trial the product and see if it suits your needs."
"They could improve on the pricing because it seems pretty expensive. I'm sure it's justified, but it's expensive."
"Compared with other services, Sauce Labs is a bit expensive."
"Go ahead please. Try it at a smaller scale."
"​Now that we have an enterprise license, we no longer have to worry about minutes each month!​"
"The number of concurrent VMs that Sauce Labs provides depends on your purchase license level."
