We performed a comparison between CrossBrowserTesting and Eggplant Test based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Functional Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I am able to continuously test my new releases across browser versions without issues."
"It has increased the speed of our regression testing."
"CrossBrowserTesting allows us to test our site with real-world devices in real-world scenarios and find what we're missing."
"Record and Replay is the most used functionality for us, as we can record the test cases and play them on multiple combinations of platforms."
"I must acknowledge that the customer support has been A++ when I have run into problems."
"SmartBear has excellent, informative webinars, so keep an eye out for those."
"Video recording of the script running in a cloud server."
"The ability to choose from many devices is the best feature."
"It is easy to set up."
"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 main feature of Eggplant Test is that it can do fully automated web testing and app testing."
"Good text reading ability."
"We are able to now automate tests, which so far have been manual."
"The most valuable features would be the image recognition and the OCR."
"The most valuable features of Eggplant Digital Automation Intelligence are bug hunting and OCR technology."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create code from a flow chart, and then run the code through it."
"A problem that we are facing quite often is related to the network connection. Tests can fail if the remote CrossBrowserTesting's VM has connection problems. This happens mostly with browsers of Internet Explorer family which work on Windows OS."
"There should be more detailed training on CrossBrowserTesting."
"Being able to test on real devices via the virtual connection is wonderful, but it can cause some lag and load time issues while testing."
"A wider range of physical devices with more browser versions in the Selenium Grid would be great to insure users with out-of-date devices are able to interact with our sites."
"The screenshot tool defaults to a screen layout instead of a full page test. I find it a bit cumbersome that I can't have it run a full screenshot as my default."
"Elements of 'real' mobile/tablet testing could be sped up."
"The speed connection in mobile devices could be improved, because sometimes the load time is uncertain."
"This solution would benefit from faster testing and support for more devices."
"The reporting function is a bit shallow. The solution does not offer very comprehensive reporting in terms of your test results. The reporting time and the logs are very high level as well. These areas need improvement."
"The language is too specific; it is just for Eggplant."
"A step forward would be to have event support, because it is more or less linear at the moment."
"There was no free trial in it."
"Eggplant Digital Automation Intelligence could improve by lowering the price."
"The solution would crash from time to time."
"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."
"We found that we had issues regarding the VPN setup, which is one of the reasons that we did not purchase this solution."
