Find out in this report how the two Regression Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Game testing and the API for apps are good."
"Ability to use different frameworks."
"The recording feature of this product is very valuable for our testing purposes."
"Katalon Studio's biggest advantage is its price. It's a good tool for the price, albeit with some limitations when you compare it with tools like Tricentis Tosca."
"The functionality of the data is very good. You can upload and disperse data using the solution."
"One of the features that I like is Object Recognition. It worked very well, and it allowed me to create a dynamic expert based on my requirements."
"It is good for API testing. It is also good for continuous integration testing. You can connect it to Jenkins."
"This is a product that is well ahead of its immediate competition in features and functionality."
"The product provides ease of automation for the cloud."
"The most valuable feature of Katalon Studio is visual testing. It compares the look and feel of an application which is useful."
"Their pricing structure is complicated and can be improved."
"Lacking capability options that can be directly integrated."
"Currently, I'm the only one who can use it because I have a Mac. It is giving a hard time to my team members who are on Linux. My team members are using Linux, and Katalon doesn't support Linux very well. It keeps on crashing. It crashes and shuts down almost every time they save their work, so they are not able to use it. It should have good support for Linux. We don't know what the problem is. If the Katalon team can pick up this issue, it will be very helpful."
"One improvement would be if it could support more programming languages such as JavaScript or Python. Right now, it is only on Groovy, which I think is not a too popular language."
"What it lacks is the Selenium Grid capabilities."
"The product’s regression testing time could be reduced."
"One aspect that can be improved is testing for desktop applications. I would like to see them support more technologies in this area."
"We have been seeing some error pop-ups that are difficult to understand why they were triggered."
"I can say that in my company, we struggle a lot with iOS automation."
"Katalon Studio could improve having visual testing, but I think they're launching that feature very soon. We would like to see an increase in the usage of AI."
