OpenText UFT One

Formerly Micro Focus UFT One

UFT One is well suited
1. Good tool for all kind of applications (S/4 Hana->DB validations->Frontend legacy applications) through one tool
2. Integrate many 3rd party applications
Less appropriate
1. It should support all applications within organizations rather than looking other tools
2. Taking a bit time to the market when preparing script/component
3. Need a build interface/UI for less time to prepare an automation script/componenta

Desktop automation is well suited and all CI integrations are possible with HP UFT. It also requires less coding experience from the person who needs to develop automation scripts. Web automation should be improved a lot, in the sense of meeting the demands of the challenges of web automation.

When we need to execute the same test in different browsers cross-browser testing), UFT is the best tool as it supports all the major browsers. In a smaller organisation budget is the key, UFT will not be wiser to use. Since in my program as well we are able to get even- after 2 years. I will recommend any open source tools like Selenium for automation where a budget is key. Selenium can integrate with just about anything to give you a robust framework such as Maven or Ant for source code compilation, Test NG to drive tests, Jenkins for continuous integration and different reports or dashboards like allure reports.

UFT is well suited if the price is not an issue, and if the requirement is about testing different technologies.
If the application is based on Legacy platforms like Siebel or Mainframe, UFT fares quite well.
For low cost web-based projects, there are other cheap and open source tools available.
If it is about API testing or Mobile Testing, it is better to use other tools like TOSCA.

The tool has evolved to be the market leader in paid GUI testing, at last count, there are over a dozen add-ins (not including subtypes) that can be selected at startup based upon the technology of the application being tested. This includes the standard web types to new mobile applications. It can be plugged into your development tool of choice and reports the results to whatever level you desire.
