Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It's pretty straightforward to set up.""We always use the product for end-to-end automation test cases.""The most valuable feature of the solution is its versatility."

More Inflectra Rapise Pros →

"Selenium integration.""The database checkpoints detect problems which are difficult for a human resource to find.""The ease-of-use and quality of the overall product are above average.""TestComplete has strong reporting capabilities. The reports they generate are really good.""The most valuable features of the SmartBear TestComplete are self-healing, they reduce the maintenance required. The different languages SmartBear TestComplete supports are good because some of our libraries are written in Python, JavaScript, and C#. It's very easy to put them all under one project and use them. The are other features that SmartBear TestComplete has but the competition widely has them as well.""This company offers end-to-end capabilities for test suite creation and execution. One feature that I particularly appreciate is the tagging system. Tags are highly valuable, as they allow you to assign tags to your test cases. When there's an impact in a specific area, you can search for and run all test cases associated with that tag. I find this functionality very useful.""You can record your actions and play them back later.""TestComplete is simple, it's a very easy-to-use tool."

Cons
"The maintenance is very difficult. We've only been using the platform for three months, so I'm not sure if that will continue, but right now it's an observation I've had.""It would be good if there could be more integration of Inflectra Rapise, since not all customers use the same tool for test management and automation integration.""Inflectra Rapise needs to expand its ability."

More Inflectra Rapise Cons →

"Right now, when you buy the solution, you need to pay for one solution. You receive one set up and you install it and it's just in that one machine. It would be ideal if they could offer one subscription where you can connect to different machines with a group subscription.""I didn't use it very heavily. One issue that I found was that there wasn't a quick way or a button to move Visual Basic scripts to TestComplete. We have a lot of such scripts in our organization, and it would be very useful to have some option to easily move these scripts. It is currently possible to convert these scripts to TestComplete, but it is not easy. I have to write some code, but everything is not available immediately.""This solution could be improved by making it easier to visualize where there is a failure without having to look at it in detail.""TestComplete gives support to do requests to a SOAP web service but has no support to do HTTP requests on Restful services.""Product is not stable enough and it crashes often.""To bring it up to a 10, I would be looking for the addition of some key functional API testing.""The solution needs to extend the possibilities so that we can test on other operating systems, platforms and publications for Android as well as iOS.""What is currently missing from this solution is better support for mobile testing."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We pay no more than $50 annually for support of each one of the licenses."
  • "I rate the product's price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where ten means very good pricing."
  • More Inflectra Rapise Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The product is becoming more and more expensive."
  • "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."
  • "The price is less, compared to other products, such as QTP."
  • "Buy modules on demand. If you have a four-person team and they will each automate tests only 25% of the time, it's better to buy a floating licence and share the tool during the work day."
  • "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."
  • "This is a pay-per-use service that is not expensive, and cost-efficient if you have a small team."
  • "The option we chose was around $2,000 USD."
  • "The licensing costs are in the range of $1,000 to $3,000."

    Top Answer:It's comparable to other similar tools, perhaps a bit less expensive than some of its competitors. So, the pricing is pretty reasonable.
    Top Answer:Headless testing would be a big improvement. For example, when we run our regression suite, we need to start a virtual machine and run the tests interactively. There isn't a way to run the tests… more »

    Reviews from Real Users

    Sandhiya T S., Sr Solutions Engineer at Lexington Soft, relates, “The record and replay aspects of the solution are quite useful for people. With them, you don't have to write any scripts. Basically, you can record your actions and play them back later. The initial setup is also very easy.”

    Sai S R., Staff Test Architect at a tech services company, says, "The most valuable features of the SmartBear TestComplete are self-healing, they reduce the maintenance required. The different languages SmartBear TestComplete supports are good because some of our libraries are written in Python, JavaScript, and C#.
