OATS doesn’t work for Hyperion or ADF - hence why I am using it as well. OATS is great as it’s a full suite in 1 tool for load, functional automation and Test Mgmt

The visual Studio Test tool is faster than other tools. Since the development and testing processes are in one tool, it is more profitable in terms of cost. It is more inconvenient to write a test case in DevOps.

I believe the thing that makes Visual Studio a solid choice is the integration with Azure and Microsoft. Apart from that, there are several open-source software available which pretty much do the same on the same scale as well.

The Oracle Application [Testing Suite] is used heavily in our organization for independent regions to perform Oracle upgrades. Baseline performance can be monitored before the upgrade and compared to a production query load, we are able to easily monitor server performance and make an accurate prediction of upgrade performance. DBA's are able to use the testing suite for ongoing validation of database performance during peak times.

Visual Studio Test Professional is best for .NET and C# based development, which is what 90% of our developers and projects do. It is an integral part of the CI/CD pipeline for our custom made Enterprise resource planning tool. It also works very well with Azure providing seamless integration to way more functionality.

Cons
  • The application is ideal for places that have already contracted with Oracle, however, OATS is much more expensive than other software available on the market.
  • The setup and configuration for OATS requires a lot of technical expertise and in depth knowledge.

  • The solution needs more reports and more dashboards, as well as more details for each originated spare test case or best guess in test cases.
  • The service right now is far too expensive. You need to pay per user.
  • The tools for unit testing can be improved, giving a better ability to manage tests.

Visual Studio Test Professional's overall usability is extremely high quality. It is extremely functional and like all Microsoft products has a user interface that is well designed and is extremely user friendly. Any functionality which I looked for, I was able to either understand immediately or find a user guide online.

We are a large company and saving a few dollars on licensing is penny wise but pound foolish as we cannot afford unplanned downtime.

Return on Investment
  • Oracle testing suite had a positive ROI immediately, as our web application downtimes were reduced dramatically after we could do automated regression and load testing.
  • The learning curve for OpenScript was steep for our team, and we had to spend a lot of work hours training staff and learning the product.
  • After users were trained properly, we were able to leverage the benefits of the suite immediately.
