Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We like the model device factory for iOS and Android devices.""Testing across devices and browsers without maintaining that inventory is invaluable.""The integration is very good.""I like that it offers full device capability.""It is a scalable solution.""I have found that BrowserStack is stable.""I've worked on testing integrations with BrowserStack, particularly with a platform called IT. This involves testing the registration process, including receiving verification codes on devices and phones. BrowserStack has been excellent for testing these integrations, providing a seamless workflow development experience.""BrowserStack's best feature is browser testing across different platforms, including mobile."

"The solution is based on a Windows model, where adding users is just a few clicks. It is easy to manage users and add them.""The solution is a stable one.""We did see a massive return on investment from using Eggplant.""GUI testing is the strength of the tool. The tool works as expected, and the support response from eggPlant, as a company, has been quick and substantial.""Everything is happening on the layout or display that is used by the user. Eggplant prompts processes, like 'click here,' or 'look for this image.' Eggplant makes it possible for QA people and BAs, working in the actual display, to check if the software is providing the right images, the right text, and the right results. They don't have to go inside the code or to the TCP/IP layer. Everything is happening at the highest level.""The most valuable feature is the ability to create code from a flow chart, and then run the code through it.""We are able to now automate tests, which so far have been manual.""The features that we like the most are the developer interface and the ability to quickly develop and deploy tests."

Cons
"We are struggling to do local testing.""BrowserStack operates at a slow pace, it could improve by making it faster.""One of the biggest issues with BrowserStack is that if you don't have your network set up by the book, it's hard to get it to work with local desk machines.""While I was testing I was not 100% sure a that was properly mimicking the browsers or not. We had some issues with a browser, and the reason was the browser itself does not provide any support. If the local system does not provide any support, I think this was the problem. There should be better integration with other solutions, such as JIRA.""BrowserStack should work on its Internet connectivity although issues only occur occasionally.""Adding better integration with frameworks, particularly testing frameworks like Robot, would be of more value to customers and make their jobs easier.""The solution is slow.""It is difficult to use for someone who has little to no experience."

More BrowserStack Cons →

"There was no free trial in it.""Its performance and stability could be better.""I would like to see standardized actions already built into Eggplant. For example, "wait eight seconds". That way, I wouldn't need to create it as an action. Right now, I have to program that wait and describe it as an action so that everybody knows it is an action that waits eight seconds... That way, somebody who is not familiar with programming processes like "if-else", or "for", or "while", would be able, from the first moment, and without programming, to put some easy-to-use, standardized, actions in place.""In terms of additional features, it would be helpful to have one package for all testing. You have the manager, the AI, then you have functional, and about 10 different packages for installing.""It has low productivity.""Eggplant Digital Automation Intelligence could improve by lowering the price.""A step forward would be to have event support, because it is more or less linear at the moment.""Eggplant Test should emphasize on improving its offering in non-Windows environments."

  • "It is scalable, but it is a matter of money in the pocket. You can scale it, but then you have to have additional licenses. The licensing approach of eggPlant is not the best."
  • "Make a smart decision about the number of developer- and execution-only licenses you purchase to maximize your budget. We found that going heavier on execution-only licenses has been a way to reduce our costs and maximize our ability to benefit from the software."
  • "End-to-end testing isn't possible for us because of the licensing problems. It's very expensive, so we only have two development/execution licenses."
  • "It probably has a yearly license."
  • "This solution is expensive when compared to the market. However, the reason it is more expensive is because of its stability, high performance, and for its support of any technology."
  • "Eggplant Test is a very expensive solution."
