Pros

  • Biggest advantage is - you can use the same components created for manual as well as automated testing
  • It has a nice little feature called extended capabilities where you can easily automate tests SAP and oracle type architectures.
  • Easy access library lets you create highly reusable and shareable components and the integrations is not that difficult

Cons

  • If you are using components for automation testing, the time it takes to load a new component is too high and it sucks off the benefit of component based testing.
  • You want to have many components in a test and so a BA can also create automated tests easily but too many components takes too long to executed .
  • It comes with a cost. You can simply build a modular framework even without this framework and probably more efficiently.

Return on Investment

  • As the tool itself promotes re usability, we were able to cut down development and maintenance costs by good %.
  • More than cost savings, out no technical folks started building automated tests based on user flows very easily.
