Overall Satisfaction with FitNesse

Our Application Development team uses FitNesse to run regression testing after an Appian version upgrade to ensure our platform is stable. FitNesse has been a great help to saving us time by automatically running the regression test cases for us. Upgrade testing used to take us around 3-5 days, with FitNesse, we complete it within 1-2 days.
  • Easy to install.
  • Command language is easy to create custom scripts.
  • FitNesse tests are deterministic.
  • Limitations with rich text fields.
  • FitNesse cannot properly read the interface if labels or accessibility text is not available.
  • Not used for Web interface testing.
  • Usability.
  • Does not requires extra configuration or setup.
  • FitNesse works with Java.
  • Saves developer time on regression testing.
  • Developers can spend time on other prioritizes while FitNesse runs regression testing.
  • Transitioning into another testing platform would be costly.

FitNesse is great for scenarios where you would like to automate regression testing with basic user commands. For example, you can create a FitNesse script to log in as a user, click on a link to launch a process to fill out a form, and then sign out. FitNesse is not compatible with all Web interfaces, or rich text boxes.
