TestComplete is a versatile tool that is primarily used to automate GUI interfaces for web applications and standalone applications. Users have found it particularly helpful in organizing and running tests smoothly, increasing the efficiency of their testing processes. By automating repetitive tasks and allowing more time for exploratory testing, TestComplete has helped users identify previously unknown bugs in software. It is commonly used to automate regression tests of web-based products and in-house developed software that integrates with other applications. Additionally, TestComplete has proved valuable in the banking industry for testing web and mobile applications, custom modules, and CRM systems. It has also been utilized to automate tests for simulation software and to migrate manual test cases to an automated framework. Overall, TestComplete enables users to automate testing processes, save time and effort, and perform a higher number of tests in a shorter period of time.

We still use both products in our company, since Postman is mainly used for backend automation and TestComplete for frontend automation. The difference is that via Postman you can easily write tests that send different requests to your server, get the response, and compare them to the expected response. Via TestComplete you can easily write tests that check whether the response of your server is processed and displayed correctly in the frontend of your product. So I don't really think you can compare those two since you can use them coherently.

TestComplete stacks up against them in terms of GUI and seamless performance. It records each and every step and action been performed in the application and produces a detailed report in a well-structured manner. It can connect and access seamlessly among various databases directly to speed up the testing process.

TestStand is a much more complex tool than TestComplete and it's for a little bit different solutions I think. For desktop apps I would use the TestComplete, For Mobile / Web -> Python + Behave + Pytest selenium - TestComplete is much overcomplicated and slow! For embedded/electronics - TestStand Depends on what u want to test.

We are using Katalon for web-based applications, mainly because our QA engineers have a strong experience with it. But it does not allow precise item identification in Delphi-based applications and that was a show stopper for us. Having received recommendations for TestComplete, we evaluated it and found that in less than two weeks we were able to write our specialized plugins and start testing our applications.

We used before the Coded UI Tests which are in Visual Studio / Azure DevOps, and the tests were impossible to maintain and very very flaky. Then in 2015, we selected TestComplete, as it was clearly the tool with the most feature for desktop UI testing. Selenium was directly discarded as it couldn't test desktop applications. We recently become aware of Ranorex Studio, the feature set seems similar to TestComplete. But with all the time invested in the tests made for TestComplete, a tool switch makes no [sense].

TestComplete is more complete than Cypress.io because Cypress.io is only used to complete end-to-end testing for web apps. These two tools are user friendly and easy to use. For the needs of our company, we have chosen TestComplete for the variety of testing applications.

TestComplete is a robust test automation tool and not for someone who expects to just record and playback. This can be done with [TestComplete], but the strength of the tool is the ability to code complex actions and capturing of objects. The reporting of results is also excellent with [TestComplete], and with the ability to customize the result comments.

Selenium gets a lot of mileage for being opensource and free, but in terms of features, ease of use, and the added support and development structure of an enterprise product, TestComplete is the clean cut winner.

TestComplete was selected after trying multiple product offerings. Initially these product offerings were installed with trail keys, and various factors were weighted and sized based on complexity to install, and ease of use. TestComplete scored higher than any other product offering in our decision matrix. The SmartBear company also has top notch support as well!

I have used UFT, Katalon Studio.
UFT has robust object recognition engine than TestComplete.
For example, Katalon Studio supports Groovy and Java so it is easier for programmers/testers to automate apps in java as it is a popular language, but TC doesn't support it.
Integrations: Katalon Studio supports CircleCI and Bambo and even custom CI/CD integration, but no support from TestComplete.
Cloud Device integrations: Katalon Studio supports LambdaTest, Sauce Labs, browser Stack and custom integration, but no support from TestComplete.

TestComplete gives the best option of record and playback. Also, it does not have any problem with object recognition just like Selenium.

Selenium needs more manual efforts in selecting the object properties and utilizing them. Also, Selenium needs a good command of one coding language to make it to work.

Also, Compare to UFT, TestComplete is more convenient in usability.

If we buy the mobile automation plugin then it removes the complete need of the Appium as well.
