Likelihood to Recommend It is very easy to verify Images with drawable resources Color Verification we can do this by referring to the same hex code as the developer team used so that it is reused. Opening a desired activity without performing End-to-end flow which eventually saves time. If the application is built on Android we can go testing activity with Espresso as it provides all the necessary APIs Espresso is not appropriate to iOS app automation, from a business point of view we need to hire new resources for iOS testing. Read full review My CMS has a small window in which I can edit custom HTML/CSS. It can be expanded some, but not as much as I would like. It also displays all code as dark text on a white background. On a page where I am doing extensive custom coding, it is helpful to see it in a larger window and in a color-coded display so that I don't have to strain my eyes as hard. Especially when I'm trying to scan for specific elements and target issues and so that I don't have to scroll endlessly in a tiny window.

Read full review Cons As Espresso works on the ideal thread if the threads are not handled properly by the developing team it can lead to challenges in the execution of your tests. Depends more on the developer's code we cannot develop tests as individual frameworks, we share the repository with developers. We need to be cautious while making changes in the tests, as we share same repository Read full review Plugins are easier to use and less complicated but transferring your license to a new computer isn't as simple as it sounds. Sublime has an automatic file comparison feature, but it's challenging to use and should be improved. Adding the ability to mark or highlight the text with different colors would be an excellent application. Read full review Likelihood to Renew I love this application. It has helped to improve my work. Also, I became so used to the shortcuts that It's hard for me to change to another editor.
Read full review Usability This is a programmers tool. As such a lot of the features and benefits are lost on a non-technical user. To get the most out of the tool you need to have a basic crash course in how it works and what it can do. The documentation and community are good, but it takes a bit of time to get up to speed.

Read full review Support Rating Never had to use their customer support before. There is ample documentation online so it's straightforward to find a solution to any problem you might encounter. For example, I needed to convert a string of HTML code to a properly formatted HTML file to "modify." Easy to do when there are so many users of the product who have needed to do that same thing before.

Appium Fewer efforts in Espresso over
Appium , as Espresso provides some built-in library to perform the operation. Easy to use, Espresso is very easy to understand and we can perform operations with very little code. Developers can contribute, as they have good command over Java and Kotin languages and also use Espresso for unit testing.

Atom ; both are great but nothing really beats the Sublime Text UI; super intuitive and friendly and does everything you need without overwhelming you with stuff you don't. Other options are free, but for our organization, it was well worth the small license cost for the persistent use of a great product.

As such, it has helped me be a more productive employee because I don't get dazed by hundreds of buttons. I can focus on just the code. Sublime Text is so affordable that it's a no-brainer to have an extra tool in your toolset. The Search features of Sublime Text are so useful that it has saved me a great amount of time compared to using Find & Replace menus in Xcode, Android Studio, or Eclipse. Read full review ScreenShots
