BrowserStack
BrowserStack is very useful if you need to troubleshoot a client's reported experience from using an older device or browser version that you do not own and can not personally replicate in-house. For instance, if you are in a Windows environment and your client has a Mac, or if you have iPhones and they have Android. It's also great for ensuring that above-the-fold content is presented effectively across a variety of mobile devices and optimizing visitor experiences. If you are a small business with lower client volumes where these services are needed, then the price point may be high.

Testim has been great at automating Frontend and integration regression testing. I do not think it would work wellTricentis Testimfor backend code testing, if it could not be done through UI. The record function is very good, and makes automating test cases much faster and more accurate. We have had great success using Testim to verify SalesForce environments, NetSuite environments, and our own JumpCloud application as well.

Pros
BrowserStack
  • Tests Android and iOS on real devices on cloud, without the need to purchase the devices.
  • Run Maestro tests and other frameworks on real devices, reporting the errors to be fixed to developers or the test workflows that failed to the QA team.
  • The quality reports at the end of the tests are really good, because they contain videos of the tests being performed on the devices. So, not only text, I can check the behavior of the application exactly how it runs.

Tricentis
  • It provides a codeless testing environment, allowing non-technical users such as business analysts and testers to create and maintain automated tests without writing code. This democratizes test automation and accelerates test creation.
  • The platform leverages artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms to analyze user interactions with the application and automatically generate test scripts. This significantly reduces the time and effort required to create test cases.
  • Its AI capabilities enable tests to adapt to changes in the application's user interface (UI) automatically. If UI elements change, the platform can identify and update the tests accordingly, reducing maintenance overhead.

Cons
BrowserStack
  • The documentation needs to improve for browser edge cases, such as "approving permissions automatically". There are several "solutions" posted, none of which worked. I needed to go to Discord to get the real solution.
  • Documentation in general seems to provide answers that are unclear or flaky
  • There needs to be a more reliable way to programmatically choose device, platform, and window size by being able to query a 'plan' endpoint instead of just 'failing the combination.'

Tricentis
  • Providing more comprehensive reporting and analytics capabilities, including customizable dashboards and insights into test execution results, could help users gain deeper insights into their test coverage and quality.
  • Expanding integration capabilities with a wider range of external systems, tools, and test management platforms could increase flexibility and interoperability within the testing ecosystem.
  • Enhancements in organizing and managing test scenarios and test suites could improve the user experience. Features such as better folder structures, tags, and hierarchical organization could make it easier to manage large test suites.

It's almost the 3rd year for us and it's renewal time for us. So yes, we are already discussing how many licenses we need to increase as users are increasing internally. So it's 100% sure that we are already planning renewal this year as well BrowserStack with live and app automate.

This is one of the most intuitive tools, while also having the capability to do complex test scenarios. There are very few things we are unable to test with this tool. The support is also very quick and very helpful.

Usability
BrowserStack
So many options that it can be a little overwhelming, but the core functions are easy to find and use and it's usually not too hard to figure things out for the more complex tasks. Very easy to boot up a device and a specific browser from the dashboard to begin a manual website test.

While the users do have some small amount of coding background, this tool does not require much prior knowledge to get off the ground. In order to do some of the more complicated test scenarios, there is a learning curve, but overall the re-usability and ease of use is fantastic.

Performance
BrowserStack
The tests are fast considering the fact that they're Appium tests. I've seen tests reliably pass or fail when they're supposed to, with next to zero issues on the BrowserStack side of things. Tests launch only seconds after I kick off them off from my CLI.

BrowserStack
I've not had much direct interaction with the BrowserStack support team. The help and community are great and we've not run into any issue that has really required us to reach out. I guess having a stable and easy to use system means you may never need to contact support.

I rated the implementation satisfaction an 8 because while it went smoothly overall, there were some challenges during the initial learning phase and integration with existing tools. Key insights include the importance of providing sufficient training upfront and ensuring seamless integration with other systems to minimize disruptions and improve adoption speed.

We evaluated several other products, and what gave Tricentis Testim the edge was the ease of use, the customer support and the pricing. While others seemed to have a bit more complex functionality, we have been able to build almost every use case the way we would expect, with very few workarounds.
