Playwright vs. Tricentis Testim

Playwright is works pretty well for automating the critical user paths of any web application, ensuring that core functionalities are constantly tested and catching issues before they reach QA, particularly through its seamless integration into our CI/CD (in our case, using GithHub); however, it is less appropriate for mobile testing since it doesn't support mobile applications. Testers still needs to learn another framework to do this.

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.

• 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.

• 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 makes automating complex user interactions easier, fits right into our CI/CD for continuous testing, and works great across different browsers. The Documentation is a plus, you don't really need to search a lot to understand and find what you need for the coding. The community is small but very helpful, which makes it a breeze to use and a must-have for keeping our software in top shape.

We are using Testim all the time. Every new, big we roll out feature has tests and it is our only tool for regression tests.

The customer support is the best I have ever experienced, both personally and in a job role. The chat anytime is a very nice option, there has never been more than a few minute wait to connect with someone, and the agents are very knowledgeable and helpful.

We selected Playwright over the rest for several reasons. The learning curve is faster, making it easier for our team to get up to speed quickly. The setup is pretty straithtforwared, minimal configurartion needed and a great example included in the configuration which includes all the basics to start writing using that spec as a placeholder. Compared to Cypress, Playwright support multiple browsers out of the box, giving us broader testing coverage. Appium is great for mobile testing, but extremely slow.

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.

• Tricentis Testim has helped us run a thorough regression daily, something that we were unable to do before
• Tricentis Testim has helped us to catch many seemingly unrelated bugs in a test environment the day of/day after code changes
• Tricentis Testim low code approach has helped us to create automation tests much faster, with more confidence, and allows much easier maintenance
