Organizing and sharing reusable API test suites has improved our team’s regression testing
SoapUI is really great for my team because when we are trying to create test cases and the requests that we are going to send to an API, we can create one SoapUI folder which will be XML and this XML is used by SoapUI itself. If we want to share whatever request we are running on my system with another person, we can export the test suite that we are working on and give it to another person. It is shareable through file upload and download. However, we cannot share it through a link or something implemented on the cloud. The best feature of SoapUI is that we can build a suite in SoapUI. When we build a suite, it creates a kind of directory where we can organize our tests in one place, and then we can share it. Another best feature is that we can execute the tests that we want to do on API level in a sequential fashion or in parallel, through synchronous or asynchronous calls. For the feature where we can organize and share test suites, because we have the test suite now, there are many things that we want to check manually. This suite can be shared with a team, and then the suite can be divided into parts or we can divide the work by sharing the suite. We can update the suite and then we can make a final suite that will be useful for next iterations. This has helped us in creating a very efficient test suite and a way to organize our test cases and regression suite.

Efficient application testing with reduced maintenance, though integration enhancements are needed
The best features I've seen with UiPath Test Cloud so far come down to test case management, tracking, and the ability to see results, but I'll be honest, the main feature I enjoy the most is the cost. The ability of the test suite to automate tests across a wide range of technologies is great since UiPath's background in RPA is specifically designed to automate basically any and all technologies. UiPath Test Cloud has certainly helped me reduce maintenance. While I don't have a good calculation on the exact time saved, I can tell you it helps with maintenance significantly. It absolutely frees up staff time for other projects by quickly identifying and classifying issues instead of going through a manual triage process. The total cost of testing is indeed reduced with UiPath Test Cloud, probably targeting around a 25% to 30% reduction in cost, typically ending up closer to 15% to 20% for larger implementations.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"SoapUI has really made that possible for us."
"SoapUI is really great for my team because when we are trying to create test cases and the requests that we are going to send to an API, we can create one SoapUI folder which will be XML and this XML is used by SoapUI itself."
"SoapUI is a pretty simple tool."
"The solution's most valuable features are the designing of API, Property Transfer feature, and Groovy plugin."
"We need to test the APIs as we build them. I use the product for API testing. You can do AWS security in SoapUI. With SoapUI, we can even perform mutual SSL authentication by incorporating certificates into the SoapUI browser. This allows us to send transactions to the backend downstream."
"It's useful for automating tasks."
"The most valuable feature of UiPath Test Cloud that I have found is the TestManager dashboard, which integrates with Jira through Planview Tasktop. This allows us to create different suites in TestManager, schedule them, and integrate them with CI/CD."
"UiPath Test Suite is user-friendly and operates as a low-code platform."
"The Test Manager, the final stage of the UiPath Test Suite, is its most valuable feature."
"Test Manager is helpful for tracking process steps. We can see which step is failing."
"We also don't develop test robots like typing codes; we program them with drag-and-drop features."
"It is a very scalable product."
"Some of the best features I find with UiPath Test Cloud include the creation of end-to-end workflows with API integration, which was particularly useful for my use case, allowing me to connect APIs seamlessly within the defined workflows in UiPath."
 

Cons

"If we could have more sharing capability within teams or its own structure, that would help."
"The product needs to be available as an extension for the Chrome browser."
"SoapUI is not that scalable."
"There are more advanced API testing tools than SoapUI, and SoapUI could be made better."
"The solution should include some plug-ins to share the generated reports over email."
"The pricing isn't as low as other options."
"More precise logging would be appreciated."
"Accessing the full functionality of the Test Suite manager, including the dashboard, requires a tenant license."
"UiPath needs to improve its Test Manager feature. Defect management and reporting also need improvement."
"There is room for improvement in terms of introducing framework compatibility."
"There is room for improvement in terms of introducing framework compatibility. Many companies use test automation as an alternative to Selenium but need to develop a fully functional bot in UiPath to test on it, which is inefficient."
"Our primary application is built on Windows, so we've faced no significant challenges. However, I think mobile automation is one area where the solution still needs some work."
"With Selenium, there is a plugin called Healenium, which helps automatically detect changed properties of objects. With one click, it automatically updates the object repository with the changed properties. I would like UiPath to add that capability."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"SoapUI is a cheap tool that does not have an expensive license."
"SoapUI is an open-source solution."
"It represents good value for the investment."
"I wasn't involved in the negotiations for the UiPath Test Suite, so I have no information on its pricing."
"Its price is a bit high."
"Regarding the pricing model, I believe it would be beneficial to combine it with some of the other platform aspects."
"I consider it expensive. I would rate it a seven out of ten for pricing. It's priced per license on an annual basis. Our customers usually pay around 30K to 35K for five licenses, which is priced per year."
"One robot license costs 1,500 euros."
"UiPath Test Suite is a cost-effective solution. Orchestrator is the most expensive UiPath module, costing around $20,000, but you don't need to purchase Orchestrator to use Test Suite. You can buy a nonproductive version that costs about $2,400. It's a better value than other products I've seen."
"It is a little bit more expensive than Selenium, but it provides value for money. There are multiple types of licenses such as the Test Suite license, Studio Pro license, Test Manager license, and Test Robot license. The overall cost estimation is 13,800 dollars."
