Applitools vs. mabl

Scenarios where Applitools is well suited: Cross-browser and Cross-device Testing: Applitools shines in scenarios where applications need to be tested across multiple browsers (chrome,ie,firefox) UI Component Libraries: When working with UI component libraries or design systems, Applitools allows to capture and maintain a visual baseline for each component, Applitools may not work with highly animated sites and in non visual testing purpose

We haven't found a scenario yet where it hasn't been appropriate. We did have one function on our application that mabl couldn't do, but they solved it and got back to us very quickly. Our application is web-based and mabl is able to handle this very easily. We use the command line runner a lot. Being able to easily and quickly change from a cloud based run to a local run has been fantastic. Setting up flows and environments is a wonderful feature

• mabl trainer - record and play back test cases
• Organization - labels and flows make this easy
• Customer support!

Incentivized

• Test Maintenance- no built-in mechanism to automatically handle dynamic or volatile elements,
• Test Configuration Flexibility- ability to specify different tolerances or thresholds for specific test elements or regions within a single test
• Test Execution Performance- larger test suites or complex visual validations can sometimes lead to longer execution times.

• Asserts could be easier to add, but they aren't terribly hard

Applitools is better than browser stack & LambdaTest as it offers AI-Powered Testing: Applitools leverages AI and machine learning algorithms to enhance its visual testing capabilities. The AI algorithms help in automatically identifying and classifying visual differences. Applitools introduces the concept of "Smart Locators," which are dynamic identifiers used to locate and identify elements in a more efficient manner.

We ultimately selected mabl cause it most met our needs and our budget. We needed a low code UI automation test tool. We also have a suite of existing testing tools and other tools that it needed to be able to integrate with. Price was the only thing that ruled out some of the above tools, we are a small start up, and don't have a huge budget. Some tools listed didn't have the same functionality or ease of use with the record and playback. mabl works on our machines and integrates with our existing tools
