Used for integration automation, user-based automation, and web automation
The solution's most valuable features are the drag-and-drop feature, keyword-driven approach, and reusability of the scripts. The solution has introduced a new feature that helps us identify objects we cannot normally identify. It gives you a fair idea of objects, resolving the object recognition issue. The solution can be used to perform different tests on different machines.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution helps improve the stability of our product. It also decreases the work of our manual quality assurance engineers."
"The ability to run a whole suite of tests automatically (which we did overnight)."
"The solution has a very nice interface."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"The solution is great as a record and playback tool. It also has valuable regression testing."
"The most valuable features are the desktop and mobile modules."
"You can record your actions and play them back later."
"The product has many features."
"TestingWhiz is a low code, no code tool with integration facilities, such as with Jira, and can be used over the cloud."
 

Cons

"The solution’s customer support should be improved."
"Stability issues occurred only when connecting to the SourceSafe. Sometimes, after getting the latest version, the tool hangs and it should be reopened in order to recover."
"The pricing is the constraint."
"The way objects are added and used when utilizing descriptive programming could be improved. It is a little unwieldy, compared to UFT."
"One notable drawback is the absence of native integration with Git."
"The artificial intelligence needs to be improved."
"The test object repository needs to be improved. The hierarchy and the way we identify the objects in different applications, irrespective of technology, needs adjustments. The located and test objects are not as flexible compared to other commercial tools."
"The learning curve of the solution's user interface is a little high for new users."
"Some features need to be implemented based on customer customization requests, which are currently not available."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our ROI is about $10,000 a year."
"TestComplete now have come up with three modules (Web, Desktop & Mobile), so based on the type of product for automation, it is adequate to purchase the required module."
"We have a TestComplete 12 license."
"It costs a few hundred per year, but I am not sure. It is not at all expensive as compared to other tools."
"It comes with a high cost."
"The product is becoming more and more expensive."
"It is approximately $6,000 a year."
"My advice so far, is that while it’s not quite as powerful and easy to use as UFT, its price tag more than makes up for it."
