OpenText UFT Digital Lab vs. SoapUI Open Source, supported by SmartBear

It is well suited for companies which has geographically dispersed teams and limited devices in library. HP Mobile Center provides maximum usage of available devices on onsite, near shore and offshore models. It has distributed architecture which is very useful if your team must need physical access to device.

If you are making system upgrade project and you have existing system working and you want to imitate messages that are going in production but without making any data loads or switch it’s very suitable and convenient software. It serves well in manual test scenarios but wouldn’t be as good in case of mass tests.

• Management of the various devices.
• Management of various versions and installation of our application.
• Allow real device interactions like Biometrics.
• Simple to use interface for any manual tester.
• Works in any browser.
• Easy management of signed/packaged apps in Android and iOS.

• SOAP
• REST
• Authentication

• I would like to see stability in connection for connected devices in case of network failure, reboots and restarts
• I would like to see shorter support cycle for patch and updates from OS makers
• I would like to see a dedicated HPMC support center, where users can call-in and get answers as this a brand new product.

• I actually like SoapUI as it is, I have not found things to improve, except for the speed of response is very complex services.

The tool continues to meet our expectations and has shown that they are continually evolving the product with new features that benefit us. The most recent new feature was the auto-signing/packaging of iOS apps from the server to allow native interaction of features like biometrics. Prior this was a lengthy exercise.

HP Mobile Center stacks well against solutions like Mobile Labs Device Connect, Perfecto Mobile and Device Anywhere. Its native integration with HP ALM and HP UFT makes it a clear choice for team already using those solutions. HP Mobile Center also provides extension to Amazon Device Library.

SoapUI Open Source is free, which is good for light use or simple things here and there. There is a Pro version that makes things more user-friendly. I also like that custom code can also be used for doing more complicated tasks. I like that SoapUI can have a process/flow (conditional/loop/waits/etc.) set up for scripting purposes, which is good for beginners and light users. However, I think the user interface has room for improvement.

Incentivized

• Efficient use of the devices. Reduced the idle time.
• Better control over access and user management. Testing within our controlled environments.
• Better control of device matrix.
• Faster testing cycles. Early design bugs to development teams. Real devices means, less guess work.

Incentivized

• Testing resolves most of the issues in the development phases.
• User friendliness of the app makes it good.
• Overall client happiness depends on the clean project, which is possible by testing.
