TestComplete

We needed to automate a web application that had a highly dynamic object hierarchy and we decided to go with TestComplete. The problem with TestComplete is that it is supposed to actually help in rapid automation with minimal requirement for framework development. This actually is not the case for modern web and mobile applications. It is very good with desktop based apps but not so much with dynamic web apps that have complex object hierarchy. There is nothing that Selenium and Appium do that TestComplete is offering apart from a pretty IDE. We had to create the same POF based framework and use it on top of a TestComplete framework, it took the same time for us to create tests that we would have taken by opting for Selenium. In my current role, we decided categorically for open source solutions such as Selenium, Protractor and Appium and these are working wonders for us.

We use TestComplete to test our in-house developed software. Our products bolt onto AutoCAD so we use TestComplete to interact not only with our software, but with AutoCAD too.

Using TestComplete has really made a difference on the efficiency of the product test cycle. Previously a manual process involving hundreds of repetitive tasks, now, i simply load the test suite within TestComplete, press 'go' and it does the boring tests for me while i can do the more interesting exploratory testing manually.

TestComplete has even helped us isolate bugs in our software that we didn't even know existed, due to the nature of how it interacts with our software.

[It's] Used in one department to automate testing of power management appliances we manufacture. [It's also used for] Automated testing of browser based control panels for products.

We are using TestComplete to automate Delphi-based thick client GUI testing, complementing what is done via unit and integration testing. As we are using advanced components like VirtualTreeView, the ability to write our own plugins was decisive in the decision to move forward with TestComplete when we evaluated automated test environments. Pricing is fair and support has always been there when we needed it which cannot be said of all actors in this market. All in all, we are very pleased with TestComplete.

By being able to use data-driven testing some quite boring and tedious Tests with 1000 testcases can be nicely run automated to ensure we didn't break anything. One nice Addition to this fine Software (which would make it PERFECT) would be, if it supported testing Delphi Firemonkey applications at least on Android, starting to actually work on this (they've already been told in the past that this is a shortcomming of their product), instead of asking the user whether everything is fine, would be even more helpful!
