"The most critical thing is that this software aligns with our Agile and DevOps way of doing things. It integrates with kickoff scripts through DevOps.""Testing my app on cloud has really helped us with save time and resources to procure various hardware and software, and set those up.""The Failure Analysis feature is really important for us, one of the most important aspects. What is the root cause? Is it because we have a defect or is it that we have a test case that we need to fix or modify? The Failure Analysis is one of the main functionalities that I am exploring all the time in Sauce Labs... The Failure Analysis helps us to discover which test cases we need to work on.""Sauce Connect gave us ability to test an application that was hosted locally.""Before implementing Sauce Labs, we tested physical devices that team members had to share. It was more feasible when we were all located in one office, but we couldn't leverage our offshore capacity. With this solution, we can do everything remotely, which is essential now that most of us work from home.""Testing across multiple devices and environments is now possible to do quickly and effectively.""The abundance of device, platform, and browser combinations/versions that can be used in parallel.""There is a huge amount of open source, community provided resources."

Cons
"Licensing policies could be more intuitive.""Lacks patches for new OS systems and doesn't work on a Mac.""We would like to see the instruction documentation made into video or audio formats, to help new users get used to the modules.""I would like to see better dashboards.""The pathfinding at times is slow when we are using it. The tool's performance can be improved.""Oracle Application Testing Suite could improve by offering desktop-based application automation. It is lacking in this area at the moment.""To provide test automation support for other products like SAP, Windows and Java Applications when it comes to Functional Test Automation testing.""If there's a feature we want in OATS that's missing and we report that to Oracle, it takes a long time."

More Oracle Application Testing Suite Cons →

"They should provide a JIRA integration plugin so that we can easily log issues.""Running tests in the SauceCloud can take longer than running in a local environment.""Latency, due to Sauce Labs being a cloud-based solution, has been a concern. We work in different continents and countries, but last time I checked, Sauce Labs was only offering two data centers, one in the EU and another in the US. If you're not in either of those two places, you would have latency and issues running your test cases.""We have faced challenges with the availability of mobile devices. There was once or twice where there were no mobile devices available.""The real concern is the load time of applications or real devices when we start our tests. It takes some time to load the application or web browser. Sometimes, it is frustrating too. Since they are real devices, we understand it takes some time to load. However, if it were to improve, then that would be a great asset to the solution. So, we would like better responsive times when opening applications and running tests.""They could improve the platform's customer support services.""Unable to segregate reports for tests that are currently being developed, and might not be returning useful results.""Start execution time as each time a set of tests start, it will launch a new VM so it takes a bit of time."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Sauce Labs is a solution that stands out when compared to many of its competitors. It has valuable features that include error logging, helpful dashboards, and its browser.

    Joel A., Product Manager - Data & APIs at a marketing services firm, says, "The error logging is very robust. If we run a test through Sauce Labs and there's some sort of issue, a log will appear on the screen. Log messages are usually heinous and horrible... Sauce Labs is incredibly good at saying things like, 'Hey, here is the exact issue. Fix this and you can run the test.' That helps in getting things up and running and executing the way they should."

    Savio D., Sr. IT Architect at a healthcare company, mentions, "Sauce Labs' dashboards contain multiple useful metrics in one place. Everything is represented to us visually on the dashboard, which helps us understand where to focus our attention, what the issues are, and what we need to resolve."

    PeerSpot reviewer, Rob L., Director of Quality Assurance - Shared Service at a financial services firm, writes, “The most valuable feature for us is the browser. The most critical thing is that this software aligns with our Agile and DevOps way of doing things. It integrates with kickoff scripts through DevOps.”
