Efficient Regression Testing: Several reviewers have praised the product for its efficiency in regression testing. It significantly reduces test time, allowing testers to automate functional QUI tests easily. This feature has been a game-changer for many users as they can quickly analyze test results and generate graphical reports for all their tests. The ability to cut down on manual testing work considerably ensures that bugs are kept out of production.

Great experience over all. Telerik/Progress was very responsive to questions in the beginning when evaluating the product. Great online help for getting the product into production. Test Studios is an easy product to learn and can be picked up relatively fast.

The product has cut down on

our test time during our QA cycles

Pros

Great for Regression testing
Cut down on test time

Cons

Mobile test compatibility and ease of use

Likelihood to Recommend

The product is easy to learn and any customer making web based application will greatly benefit from a product like this and cut down on testing time. As new code builds go out it's an excellent tool for regression testing. The load testing feature has a great benefit as well and lets us test the limits of the application on different platforms and allows us to tweak the certain area and test again.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Currently being used for development of testing automation of web applications. It is being used by the QA Department to help us on tedious repetitive tasks that can be automated. It is mainly used for regression testing. We are also considering to use it for API testing and from my initial tests it is looking good.

Pros

Very user-friendly interface.
The element repository is a great feature and really help us save time when the interface is changed.
C# or VB.net can be used to edit code making it even easier for those who have previous knowledge on such languages.

Cons

The coding IDE is a tad slow compared to Visual Studio.
Quite expensive, but there are several features that make up for the price.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is very good for testers who have little coding experience but are willing to learn. It is very good for regression testing and really helps us identify issues that could have been a detriment to our end users. It is also great to keep track of the performance of pages across time.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Test Studio is being by one of our business units to support quicker delivery of new software enhancements to our customers.

Pros

The user interface is really user friendly and non intimidating even for less technical personnel.
Recording of test makes it really easy to capture test steps in a natural way.
The ability to link multiple test together and re-use test is a great feature.

Cons

The user documentation and training materials seem to be outdated a bit.
Integration with newer version control systems such as VSTS is buggy.

Likelihood to Recommend

Test Studio has a very clean user interface experience and makes user acceptance of the tool easier to a less technical audience. For smaller applications, where simple use of the test recorder and playback seems like a great use of this tool.
