QT9 Quality Management System is a quality management platform designed to ensure compliance with a large number of regulations and policies and to automate paper-bound processes in the interest of increasing efficiency.
Appium works well for well-structured mobile applications test automation that is particularly easy to leverage when different pages of the app use similar building blocks. If it takes time for some content in the app to be rendered, ask your dev team to add progress indicators and ensure they are accessible. That might be more complicated to do with Appium, though, if there's no good contact with Dev team established so you can request accessibility IDs added quickly enough when needed. Appium supports another locator strategies as well though (such as xPath or iOS class chain on iOS) but they wouldn't work as fast so you may get really slow tests.
I like using QT9 because it's easy to use, easy to train others and is very user friendly. QT9 has all that we need to be successful. Our data tracking, corrective actions, documentation tracking and the reporting of that data is extremely easy to use and implement. We also think that the EC process is very useful for updating designs
There are a number of expected methods that are not implemented, yet. With a similar sounding name as Selenium with similar functions, people who are familiar with Selenium try to use methods that appear to be available, but give a "not yet implemented" exception when run.
Documentation can be confusing.
Setup was a difficult process. This may not necessarily be the case once you figure everything out, but the whole figuring it out process was difficult and I ran into many, many problems when I first started.
I would like to give 9/10 rating to Appium because of it can easily integrate with popular frameworks and CI/CD tools, as well as it is reliable, flexible and easy to use. The setup can bit complex in initial step, but once on configured it's very easy to use and enables stable and scalable mobile automation for real and cloud devices.
QT9 QMS has always been available. Even in instances where there would be an update, notifications would be sent out to provide a heads up to the users. Any issues where QT9 QMS would have problems, glitches, or run slow, support was always available to take care of the issues.
I give it a 10 as the information is always readily available. As for speed, For the most part, loading of the sometimes takes a little longer than others. There are occasional times that it does run a little slow, but when that happens, the support team has always been there to help.
I had online training which was wonderful. The training was open and inviting to ask questions. I came on just after QT9 QMS was accepted in the company. SO I was in almost at the ground floor.
Training was open and was able to ask any questions. This provided clarity in all the areas that I would use. There has been training readily offered by the QT9 company and provided opportunities to grow our understanding of the software and additional ways that we could utilize it.
Most of mobile testing tools which are available in the market are paid license tools. But Appium is Open source mobile testing tool. We can create customised automation framework using Appium. It also supports various languages such as Java, Javascript etc. And also supports various operating systems such as Android, IOS etc. We can easily integrate Appium frameworks with CI/CD [Jenkins, Git etc].
We have sites in many different areas within and outside of our current state. The use of QT9 QMS allows all sites to be in one database so everyone has the same information. The rollout of the software was rather easy as online training could be used for all sites and provided an excellent tool for all areas.
