My organization heavily customizes Salesforce to align it with specific business processes, adding custom fields, workflows, and triggers. With each Salesforce release or customization update, we need to ensure that existing functionalities and customizations remain intact.Tricentis Test Automation for Salesforce excels in this scenario.

Katalon Studio is above both the tools is due to its codeless test automation feature and having API, desktop, web, and mobile automation in one place but obviously there is room for improvement when desktop automation is of primary importance in the automation.

• Result upload takes little longer time: It is been observed that uploading tests results takes little longer.
• Sometimes it gets hard to integrate: Since this is fairly a new tool, requires lot of learning curve to get the job done effectively.
