Pros

“The browser/desktop recording helps to automatically record scripts and helps a lot in saving time to create automation scripts, plus it helps in parallel execution to save time.”

“The only con with the software is resolving issues sometimes requires a developer to help fix the test case.”

Teresa M.

QA Analyst

“You could also manually write the test scenarios, step by step. ”

Teresa M.

vignesh n.

“Not the best tool for API testing, however it work good enough”

Paulo C.

Sr. QA Automation Engineer

Cons

“the only drawback with this software is that it takes one min to execute one step via recording scripts and if device gets disconnected it crashes the whole script”

Siddhesh P.

QA Manager

“It can't handle the load of a large number of test cases under one suite and consumes a lot of time.”

Yash A.

QAE

“it won't handle drag and drop Functionality efficiently and upload image functionality also not good and select value from drop down also not handled properly”

Maheshwara B.

Senior Automation test engineer

Cons

“It used to be the best, it is now behind the competition I think because it lacks more flexibility to save testing projects, manage test assets and advanced test automation features.”

Maria C.

Senior Quality Assurance Manager

“Passing files as multipart/form-data is a bit complex and non-intuitive compared to Postman.”

Vevin K.

Lead Software Engineer

“One of our SOAP services has 100+ endpoints, so much so that SoapUI can't handle loading sample requests for the entire endpoint and will freeze the computer.”
