We performed a comparison between Eggplant Test and ReadyAPI based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Test Automation Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It provides very strong cross-platform support."
"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."
"The solution is a stable one."
"It is easy to set up."
"We did see a massive return on investment from using Eggplant."
"We are able to now automate tests, which so far have been manual."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create code from a flow chart, and then run the code through it."
"The most valuable features would be the image recognition and the OCR."
"For anyone who does not have experience with automation, ReadyAPI provides a sense of comfort, especially for testers who find it hard to go directly into coding."
"I haven't seen any other tool that offers both types of tests. This is very helpful for us, and it's one of the main reasons why we chose this service."
"The most valuable feature has been the assertion as a test step as this has allowed us to increase the scope of testing and validation."
"It can create stress tests very fast, and some features help you do it fast."
"This solution is very intuitive. Once you finish your first few testing cases, you can change several parameters and create lots of testing cases. You could use the same testing cases for different purposes such as automation, performance and screen testing."
"Reporting is more robust than other products because test reports can be exported in multiple ways."
"The most valuable features of ReadyAPI are the ready-to-use assertions and filters which can perform the validation. If we want to filter out any value, the filters are available. Apart from that database integration, if you want to go ahead and perform validation in the database layer it is possible with the ready-to-use feature available. The execution and reporting are rich features."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Eggplant Digital Automation Intelligence could improve by lowering the price."
"We found that we had issues regarding the VPN setup, which is one of the reasons that we did not purchase this solution."
"The solution would crash from time to time."
"If one area could be improved, it would be some of their documentation. In particular, some of their online help and user support documentation is a little bit out of date and could be revised and updated on a more frequent basis. Other than that, I haven't really found any issues or problems."
"The IDE could be even more full-featured. Because I was a developer, I was very spoiled by either Visual Studio Code or Visual Studio for shortcuts. For example, I was able to say "ctor" and hit Tab and it would create a template of a constructor for me... It would be great, when I want to create a new function, if there were shortcut commands like those that helped create all of the functions, or if there were shortcut features to do any of the complex plans."
"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."
"Eggplant Test should emphasize on improving its offering in non-Windows environments."
"There was no free trial in it."
"Lacking flexibility of adding more custom verification for security testing."
"The reporting in ReadyAPI could be better. It can become sloppy, sometimes it works and other times it does not."
"Can be improved by including an inherent feature for UI automation."
"The UI is not user-friendly."
"Performance and memory management both need to be improved because other solutions use less memory for the same amount of data."
"To generate a test suite in API, I had to create a separate one each time because otherwise it was just override the test. Each API had to be added separately. I thought I could just have one and then create different methods, but I had to add each API separately to create the test for that. That is an area that could be improved."
"The UI should be flexible. Currently, the UI isn't."
"They have performance testing also. However, it's not that great."
