Agile and Affordable Alternative to HP UFT

Replace HP UFT with TestComplete

"HP Unified Functional Testing Is Way Too Costly For Us"

Problem

UFT costs can quickly get out-of-hand. Global licensing can be complex and expensive to figure out. Expensive renewal rates, maintenance fees, and dedicated 3rd party consultant just add to the costs and the time it take to have any ROI on UFT. 

Solution

Unlike UFT, TestComplete comes with modular pricing. You can buy what you need, when you need. Just purchase desktop, web, and mobile licenses separately - there's no need to pay for modules that you don’t use. 

"My Team is Not Really Agile, Even Though We Have Some Automation"

Problem

Manual testers moving to automation need a lightweight and easy to learn tool. Automation engineers want to adopt modern scripting languages. QA teams want to be part of the continuous integration process. Modern organizations want to employ a BDD methodology to advance software development. With a steep learning curve, support for only VBScript, a closed ecosystem that is not integration friendly, and no capabilities to adopt a BDD approach, UFT can seriously stall your path to agility.

Solution

TestComplete combines the best of all worlds. It provides an easy-to-use Record and Playback capability and keyword-driven framework, access to modern scripting languages such as JavaScript or Python, an open platform with command line interfaces and REST APIs to integrate into your ecosystem, and best-in-class native support for BDD.

TestComplete reduced our software licensing and support costs by about 50% as to compared HP UFT...

"Integrating UFT with Other Tools Is Cumbersome"

Problem

Linking UFT to other tools in your ecosystem is difficult and often comes at an additional cost. Paid third-party engagements are often required.

Solution

TestComplete is built with an open architecture in mind. It has out-of-the-box integrations with many popular tools and provides a flexible command line interface and REST API to integrate with any software in the DevOps ecosystem.

"Roadmap of UFT Is Uncertain Given Spin-Merge with Micro Focus"

Problem

There is very little visibility into the future product plans and viability given HP’s recent spin-merge with Micro Focus. New versions often deprecate key features without much of an advanced notice. 

Solution

The TestComplete product team is continuously innovating to add valuable features that solve test automation problems. You have direct access to product management and the ability to influence the roadmap. 

Quick responses from TestComplete support team helped us dramatically reduced the testing cycle over UFT. We have also reduced long term costs by over 40%.

"We Can't Leave UFT Because Data Migration Is a Pain"

Problem

Challenges with data migration process including migrating script, as well as mapping objects from UFT to the new test automation tool often acts as a hurdle to moving away from HP UFT.  

Solution

Since TestComplete also supports VBScript, migration is not as complicated as it may seem. You can reuse most of your VBScript functions that you built in UFT. A one-time object mapping will need to be migrated manually. Users can clean up their object maps, streamline their tests and embark on a modern test automation strategy in moving to TestComplete.

"On-boarding New Team Members on UFT is challenging"

Problem

Getting new team members ramped up UFT often necessitates support of consultants and external resources, which further increases software licensing costs of UFT. 

Solution

TestComplete comes with free basic and advanced trainings. There is no need for expensive external resources. The Support Team is very responsive and provides solutions for most problems, however technical they may be. 

You're in safe company, these great companies use TestComplete too.
