Cons
"I feel that the automated screenshot testing takes a little longer on MacOS sometimes.""It would be nice to have an API for visual regression testing.""Sometimes, when multiple users use the tool simultaneously, it can slow down, affecting efficiency.""Load flow compared to other stacks needs improvement.""Improvements on a platform need to happen on a timely basis...There should be some new features coming up or some performance improvisation over a period of time.""I didn't like the solution's technical support and how they communicated and tried to fix the issues of customers like me.""You cannot perform native-app testing, as they offer simulation for web testing only.""I've also had some issues with the speed of certain API calls and the rendering of data. For example, when I'm onboarding data, the process can be slow."

More LambdaTest Cons →

"The solution's documentation could be improved because it keeps disappearing from the solution.""The vendor must release a lightweight version of the solution.""Over the years, I haven't identified any specific enhancements that I desire; Visual Studio has consistently met my requirements seamlessly and flawlessly.""Visual Studio Test Professional could improve by having better integration with external databases.""The solution should be cheaper.""I would appreciate some enhancements in the interface, maybe adding more color options.""The documentation is limited.""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."
