    I think SpiraTest is well suited as a test suite, but in situations where the team is already using multiple products from one particular provider, it may be better to go with that provider's test solution. This is because integrations are very important nowadays, and should be considered when picking your project management software. It should be noted that management selected SpiraTest primarily due to the low cost of the test software. I'm less familiar with other test software in the field, but if cost is an issue, you should take a look at SpiraTest.

    DevSuite helps us as a company collaborate on how to best manage the requirements and specifications of a technical design. It allows us to create, organize, manage and visualize requirements and specifications, so everyone has access to the same information and is able to use version control to make things easier.

    Pros
    Inflectra Corporation
    • A clean view of test case steps, expected results and the ability to record a result for each step quickly on one page per test set. This really helps testers work through executing manual test cases.
    • Hierarchical structure of releases and builds, requirements, and test cases.
    • Can quickly build test sets and/or test runs per build/release.
    • Simple identification of each test case, requirement, test run, build, release, etc.

    Cons
    Inflectra Corporation
    • Training can be difficult to find at times.
    • Basic reporting can become very verbose unless you set lots of filters and parameters.
    • The ability to customize some of the verbiage in the application would help bridge the gap between translating what SpiraTest's testing terminology is and the company culture uses for testing terminology.

    Inflectra Corporation
    As promised during product selection, SpiraPlan support has always been quick and helpful. Replies almost always come back in hours (and often in an hour or two). And SpiraPlan's online tech support maintains all support conversations online so no need to look through emails to try to recall repllies.

    I'd say it offers pretty much all of the functionality that we need, including scrum, talk mgmt, multiple workflows, full audits, MS Office integration, and many other things. We really can't complain, as it's doing basically exactly what we were promised it would. Pricing is fair and has not gone up.

    We were given a really good recommendation from a trusted partner on the implementation and use of this tool, so while we looked at other solutions like Microfocus and Inflectra, but we were pretty convinced we would go with DevSuite from pretty early on in the selection process. We knew it would accomplish what we needed it to, and the price was quite fair.

    • SpiraTest can be improved in terms of its dashboard and reporting. This will be really helpful for the management as well.
