We performed a comparison between Eggplant Performance and SmartBear TestComplete based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Apache, OpenText, Tricentis and others in Performance Testing Tools."It is not a conventional test automation tool. It uses optical character recognition (OCR) to identify objects. It makes it the best in the class."
"We find the solution stable and scalable."
"We don't have a big team of people that can watch the dials and check that everything is okay. We're doing a lot of the monitoring of our website and our product at the side of the desk. We need a solution that does a lot for us, and that's what Eggplant does."
"It's cross platform automation capabilities specially ranging across web, UNIX (via putty), and other systems."
"TestComplete fits almost perfectly with a large amount of stacks, such as Delphi, C#, Java and web applications."
"In TestComplete, I saw a conformed package of a tool that kept everybody in consistency. The team was able to regenerate further tests without having to manipulate more code because the record feature is great."
"Runs in different remote machines. We have multiple versions of the software being tested."
"You can record your actions and play them back later."
"Recording and playback of tests were easier with SmartBear TestComplete...It is a scalable solution."
"Customer service and technical support responsiveness are high. Everyone is very professional."
"It allows us to test both desktop and web applications."
"Performance is one key area for improvement. It can be slower compared to other tools I've used."
"I'd like to see the ability to integrate the user experience through device forms like AWS device forms or source labs."
"If that engine could better identify more XPaths automatically and make the process more flexible, that would be better."
"In scenarios where two of our engineers work on the same task, merging codes is a bit difficult."
"The pricing is the constraint."
"Name Mapping feature should be clearer. Whenever I use it, I do not really know what will work and what will not work."
"I didn't use it very heavily. One issue that I found was that there wasn't a quick way or a button to move Visual Basic scripts to TestComplete. We have a lot of such scripts in our organization, and it would be very useful to have some option to easily move these scripts. It is currently possible to convert these scripts to TestComplete, but it is not easy. I have to write some code, but everything is not available immediately."
"Headless testing would be a big improvement."
"SmartBear products generally have a weak link when it comes to integration with other test management tools like Inflectra."
"The test object repository needs to be improved. The hierarchy and the way we identify the objects in different applications, irrespective of technology, needs adjustments. The located and test objects are not as flexible compared to other commercial tools."
