Overall Satisfaction with Applitools

I have used Applitools mainly for visual testing . it is very effective for performing visual testing. it uses AI algorithms to detect visual changes rather than the pixel based comparison which is used by other tools. I have also witnessed the hypercloud grid product when i was giving the LambdaTest certification exam. it is very fast compared to traditional selenium grid. the best part is we do not need to worry about the underlying infrastructure
  • visual testing
  • cross browser testing
  • easy integration with testing frameworks
  • Test Maintenance- no built-in mechanism to automatically handle dynamic or volatile elements,
  • Test Configuration Flexibility- ability to specify different tolerances or thresholds for specific test elements or regions within a single test
  • Test Execution Performance- larger test suites or complex visual validations can sometimes lead to longer execution times.
  • cross browser testing
  • visual testing
  • mobile testing
  • cost effective
  • faster delivery of product
  • less error prone testing
Applitools is better than browser stack & LambdaTest as it offers AI-Powered Testing: Applitools leverages AI and machine learning algorithms to enhance its visual testing capabilities. The AI algorithms help in automatically identifying and classifying visual differences. Applitools introduces the concept of "Smart Locators," which are dynamic identifiers used to locate and identify elements in a more efficient manner.

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Applitools go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Applitools again?

Yes

Scenarios where Applitools is well suited: Cross-browser and Cross-device Testing: Applitools shines in scenarios where applications need to be tested across multiple browsers (chrome,ie,firefox) UI Component Libraries: When working with UI component libraries or design systems, Applitools allows to capture and maintain a visual baseline for each component, Applitools may not work with highly animated sites and in non visual testing purpose
