We performed a comparison between Eggplant Test and Visual Studio Test Professional based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Test Management Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Good text reading ability."
"Its scalability is good. It is useful for desktop applications, and it also uses OCR and does image recognition."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create code from a flow chart, and then run the code through it."
"The features that we like the most are the developer interface and the ability to quickly develop and deploy tests."
"We did see a massive return on investment from using Eggplant."
"We are able to now automate tests, which so far have been manual."
"It is easy to set up."
"DAI's newest release allows us to test via scripts rather than models, because we have done 95 percent of our development in functional, not through modeling. I am really happy that then we can use the controller to run scripts rather than having to translate things to models. There are lots of options."
"Visual Studio is an exemplary integrated development environment that stands out due to its exceptional features. It allows for the seamless selection of the appropriate programming language for the specific development tasks at hand. This facilitates a swift and effortless transition between languages, providing a highly efficient development experience."
"The setup is easy and straightforward."
"Visual Studio Test Professional is a user-friendly solution."
"It is a good and user-friendly tool."
"It's great for the development of .NET."
"One of the best documentation in the world."
"Visual Studio Test Professional is a very scalable solution."
"The product is good to create big or small projects fastly. It is one of the leaders in the area."
"We found that we had issues regarding the VPN setup, which is one of the reasons that we did not purchase this solution."
"Its performance and stability could be better."
"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 In particular, some of their online help and user support documentation is a little bit out of date and could be revised and updated on a more frequent basis.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."
"Eggplant Digital Automation Intelligence could improve by lowering the price."
"The solution would crash from time to time."
"There was no free trial in it."
"The language is too specific; it is just for Eggplant."
"I would like to see standardized actions already built into Eggplant. For example, "wait eight seconds". That way, I wouldn't need to create it as an action. Right now, I have to program that wait and describe it as an action so that everybody knows it is an action that waits eight seconds... That way, somebody who is not familiar with programming processes like "if-else", or "for", or "while", would be able, from the first moment, and without programming, to put some easy-to-use, standardized, actions in place."
"The server that we use is very slow so that is concerning for us."
"The price is reasonable, but it's not the best."
"It is not good in terms of performance. When you open Visual Studio, you have to wait for a while to process your code. It uses a lot of resources and has a lot of features. If we could disable some of the features, it would be lighter and faster to use. Nowadays, for some of the projects, we use VS Code for JavaScript or Python. VS Code is very light and easy to use, whereas, in Visual Studio, we have to wait because it takes time to compile or run a project. It has a lot of competitors in terms of performance, such as Intelligent ID. Intelligent ID is very easy to use. It has many features, and it is lighter to use than Visual Studio. In terms of error handling, sometimes, it shows an error before you finish your code, which can be improved. It would be good if it has a version for Linux. I use VS Code on Linux, but I am not sure if Visual Studio has a version for Linux."
"Visual Studio Test Professional needs to improve its stability."
"Visual Studio Test Professional should include more automation."
"The solution's documentation could be improved for beginners."
"The solution should be cheaper."
"It would be great to support other languages and applications, and that is one of the things we can improve."
