What is Tricentis Tosca?

Tricentis Tosca provides an approach to test automation that is AI-powered, codeless, and end-to-end so it can test everything in a complex IT landscape, to ensure business processes work flawlessly no matter where changes occurs.

Its 160+ technology support helps users test everything at the UI, API and data layer, including virtually any enterprise, custom, homegrown and mobile application.

With its model-based approach, Tosca enables business, QA and IT teams to create and maintain reusable test assets at speed and scale, while boosting test automation rates to from release to release. Tosca is designed to help users test faster, catch more defects and cut overall testing costs .

Tosca also features risk optimization, service virtualization, test data management, and smart test case design, to make it a comprehensive continuous testing tool.


Media

where no-code, model-based test automation separates the technical information of an application into reusable, no-code modules that can be updated as applications change, which auto-updates test cases.
a test case design for risk optimization - this displays a flexible testing model that enables fast, easy test case creation and maintenance and reduces risk in app releases.
requirements coverage for risk optimization - this enables users to prioritize requirements by business risk/ impact, understand what is needed to test, and gain business insight on defects to ensure smarter and faster release decisions.
Vision AI - AI powered test automation using patented neural network technology to deliver resilient UI automation. Includes self-healing AI capabilities.
service virtualization, which enables users to build realistic, simulated services in minutes to remove bottlenecks and run end-to-end tests faster in the software development lifecycle.
test data management. This offers test data when it is needed and helps keep track of the data as it gets consumed across end-to-end business processes.
an API Scan. This enables users to create codeless API tests without having to wait for the full application to be built.
the Automation Recording Assistant (ARA) that enables business users to record and capture their workflows during normal SAP routines and contribute to test automation.
Mobile testing - Codeless automated testing for any mobile application. Tests native, hybrid, and web applications on iOS and Android devices — including mobile cross-browser testing.
distributed execution, which enables faster testing at scale by running multiple tests in parallel across distributed infrastructures and virtual machines.
the step-by-step journey on how to navigate the Guided Tour, in 10 steps.
the update service, which enables users to update single technologies of Tosca removing the need to update entire Tosca versions.

TOSCA TESTING COMPANION.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Instead of writing complicated computer code (like most testing tools require), Tosca uses a "drag and drop" style. We showed the tool what our website looked like, and it remembered the buttons and text boxes. ​Testing Websites: We taught the robot to log in, fill out forms, and navigate the website as a real customer would. ​Checking PDF Documents: This was a big part of our job. Our system creates many PDFs (such as digital receipts or manuals). We used Tosca to automatically "read" these PDFs. It would check if the names, prices, and dates inside the PDF matched what was on the screen. ​Saving Data in the Cloud (Amazon S3): We used a digital storage locker called an Amazon S3 bucket. Every time the robot finished a test, it would save the results and the PDF files there so we could look at them later. ​Why This Helped the Company: ​Companies are always changing their technology, and Tosca helped us keep up with those changes. ​Updating Old Systems: When we moved from old, slow software to new, modern websites, Tosca helped us quickly test the new versions to ensure nothing broke. ​Moving to the Cloud: Since we were moving our data to the internet (the Cloud), having Tosca integrated with Amazon S3 meant our testing was already "living" in the cloud too. ​Accuracy: Humans get tired and might miss a small typo in a 10-page PDF. The robot never gets tired and catches every single mistake. ​Summary for your records: By using Tosca, we didn't just test faster; we made sure that all the paperwork (PDFs) our company sends out is 100% accurate, all while keeping our files organized in the cloud.

Pros

  • Pdf validations.
  • Cross browser support.

Cons

  • Cost
  • Heavy weight needing more RAM AND CPU.
  • AI assist.

Return on Investment

  • Faster testing cycle.
  • Less resource needed to manage pack.
  • Less maintenance needed.

Tricentis Tosca DI

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Tricentis Tosca for data testing. I mainly use the Data Integrity module. It helps me compare data from two different platforms seamlessly . I can perform rows by row comparisons with the model based approach and reuse the test blocks in various scenarios. I mainly use this for performing BDA to CDP migration validation.

Pros

  • Row by row comparison in DI
  • Model based approach

Cons

  • Performance is slow when performing row by row comparison for huge datasets

Return on Investment

  • Testing tool is expensive

Katalon and Selenium

Other Software Used

Snowflake, Azure Databricks, Astro by Astronomer

Great for test automation when multiple layers are involved

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Mostly used for regression and integration testing on various layers: UI, API, MQ and database. For web applications, SAP and other desktop applications such as Quintiq.

Pros

  • Automate desktop applications
  • Automate API
  • Provide the 'opportunity' to set up a clean, maintainable and readable test suite

Cons

  • Properly address bugs in existing functionality rather than focussing on adding more functionality and more customers
  • The 'not invented here' syndrome, leading to non-standard version control (that doesn't work), non-standard integration with other Tricentis tools (that isn't working very well), their own authorization, etc.
  • Quality of documentation. Some topics are only understandable from documentation áfter you've figured out for yourself how it works (like recovery), a LOT of useful documentation and tips are obscurely hidden in (later) training modules, and many features are not documented at all
  • Make testing with MQ more configurable, like testing with API
  • Call out SAP on the extremely poor testability of their web applications (such as Fiori), making it almost a must to automate with VisionAI

Return on Investment

  • Is this the kind of question you want to ask to an end user?
  • It very much depends on who is operating Tosca within a team
  • Able to run a full regression test several times a week, rather than doing it manually only once per release

Usability

The Most Scalable User-Friendly Automation Platform for SAP and Web Testing.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Tosca extensively in our SAP ecosystem and Web application, especially during the migration from ECC to S/4HANA.Tosca supports: SAP GUI automation, SAP Fiori/UI5 automation, validation directly in the HANA database, and end-to-end process validation across Finance, Procurement, Sales, and HR modules. This helps ensure all business-critical transactions behave correctly after each migration cycle, transport, or release.

Pros

  • Exceptional SAP (ECC + S/4HANA + Fiori/UI5) and Web app Automation Support.
  • Model‑Based Testing = Very Low Maintenance.
  • True End‑to‑End Automation Across All Technologies.
  • API - easy to automate

Cons

  • Performance & Execution Speed for Large Test Suites.
  • Vision AI Is Powerful but Not Always Stable.

Return on Investment

  • Tricentis Tosca has delivered significant ROI for our organization by accelerating testing cycles, improving quality coverage, and reducing the overall cost of regression testing. The tool enabled us to modernize our QA function from manual-heavy processes to an automated, scalable, and reusable testing ecosystem.
  • 60–70% Reduction in Regression Testing Effort.
