Overall Satisfaction with TestComplete
TestComplete is only used by the IT QA department. I use it to automate testing, which increases the amount of tests that are completed in a short period of time.
- I can record a simple test and play it back. This reduces the amount of time it takes to develop automated tests.
- TestComplete connects to Zephyr for reports that interest my manager.
- The test logs are easy to read, which allows follow up on any issues found.
- I have had issues with the recording generating different name mapping then what the play back wants. SmartBear seems to be addressing this issue.
- In Keyword Tests, I can jump to the associated name mapping entry. In scripts, I can not.
- I wish there was more training beyond the novice videos. Yes, there are extensive help topics, but sometimes I get overwhelmed with the amount of information I'm to read to get the answer.
- On one of the applications, I've reduced the testing time from a month to five days.
- I don't always have time to create tests for new features, then I revert to manual testing.
- The Zephyr reports have given management insight on what happens in the QA department.
TestComplete is the only tool FPC has used. It was the only one that supports the variety of software development tools we use.
