User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	As stated, we do a LOT of API testing, the swaggerhub import makes it easy to add APIs. This is very well-suited, as well as easy management of the steps/cases/suites inside of ReadyAPI. The one thing I do wish ReadyAPI was better suited for is changes to data, we have a lot of test cases in ReadyAPI and if we make a change to how the backend data is structured, one-by-one adjustments need to be made to the steps. Less appropriate, UI testing. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review

Cons	No answers on this topic	REST - They have come a long way, but there could still be improvements here. I find the learning curve much higher and not as straight forward using REST vs SOAP. Composite Projects - I'd really like to see them implement something around saving/refreshing Test Suites when using the Composite project ability in Pro. This is currently an enhancement in feature backlog (see their forum for more details). Functionality around Projects and Test Cases seems pretty sound. Natalie Colyer Lead Test Automation Engineer Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	No answers on this topic	I would definitely renew the ReadyAPI as I was pretty happy while using it. But then I switched my job, and the current workplace is using Postman so we are using it for now. Plus, I don't have any issues with Postman. At the end of the day, it about selecting the tool that gets your work done more efficiently. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review

Alternatives Considered	No answers on this topic	I have not used other API testing products but I am completely satisfied with the functionality and performance of ReadyAPI.

Scalability	No answers on this topic	It has an excellent GUI design and the reporting mechanism is also very good. It does consume a lot of memory though during concurrent testing.
