Its incredible. Pros This tool allows a team to test across multiple platforms and evniroments in a way that would not be capable without a massive team. Extremely easy for someone without a coding background to pick up. Cons Can't say about thing about this software, makes my team extremely more capable.

The team responds quickly to issues as well." 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 0/10 June 14, 2018 Pros \- Easier learning curve than other products - Can run massive test suites quickly and get fast results - Screenshots can be added to test steps easily - Can run tests in a variety of browsers/environments Cons \- Testing environments run slowly, which can make some features difficult to test (definitely not a deal-breaker) - Images can be clunky to manage at times Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Software Engineer in Test Computer Software ### "Overall it was a very positive experience" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 June 14, 2018 Pros The ability to run exploratory tests is very helpful. The fact that your application is being tested by different people gives us a broad and reliable feedback. I also like that we can run tests in different browsers and different platforms. Something that is harder arrange in our office. Cons The browsers are pretty slow so sometimes something can be marked as bug but it's just a slow machine.

Test Manager Financial Services ### "I am not an intensive user, I like the application very much, but features are missing" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 2.0 2.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 June 8, 2018 fast and reliable execution, friendly and effective support Pros ease of use support is really nice and effective, they are available and solve your issues and they make it enjoyable Cons on the missing features side, I would say: - the current repository is done for "a single" application. For larger companies with multiple applications, it can quickly become a nightmare to identify what feature belongs to what application, what module of the application, etc. That's the only one I see for the moment.

Software Developer Information Technology and Services ### "It is really easy to write the tests, to tag them, to run them, also It let me to be more confident" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 June 7, 2018 Easy to use Pros Scheduler to run tasks, a lot of platforms to run my tests, very helpful and quickly customer service, you make me feel that my money works everything. Also to mention that the new feature looks so good I just want to try it, also the goals of the company creating job opportunities is incredible awesome. Cons Some testers are nor reading carefully the instructions, I created a test that the user need to remind a code, the reason it is because is dynamically and also the tests is evaluated by more than one tester. So a feature to create notes to the tester, or well probably just a pen will do it.

Implementation Consultant ### "Rainforest provides a great hybrid of automated and real user testing." 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 June 7, 2018 Pros There is no limit to the number of tests that can be executed simultaneously. Full end-to-end testing could be accomplished much more quickly than before. Cons No self-service test import feature. It is tedious at times to enter tests from scratch. If tests are written elsewhere first, it would be nice to be able to import them.

AU Anonymous User Principal Architect and Development Manager Financial Services ### "Easier to write and maintain than automated UI tests" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 June 7, 2018 Rainforest provides end-to-end testing without the high cost of dedicated QA resources, and without the high cost of writing and maintaining automated UI tests. Pros It is easy to write set up the tests, to run them, and to edit them as needed. No special knowledge or skill is needed for any of this. The customer support is phenomenal, because you can always chat the Rainforest team and they get back to you right away. Also it is easy to schedule runs, and they have really improved the visibility of results, as in, you can see exactly what happened when a tester went through the test including a screen shot, the directions given, and then notes from the tester about anything their description of any problem observed. Multiple (usually 3+) testers are assigned to a test per browser when you "run" a test. Cons False positives and false negatives are common. Mostly this is not a big deal, because they have multiple testers run through the same test in the same browser, so if one tester misunderstands the directions or makes some error, the Rainforest algorithm will automatically ignore that tester's bug report, so that you don't get a false negative for the overall run. But sometimes multiple testers will make multiple, different mistakes during a run, resulting in a false negative (i.e., a report of a run failure), even though the software actually worked fine. Oftentimes if a step is proving confusing to testers, you can easily re-word the test step to make it work out better. We actually set up 50 users on our test systems, because when you run a few tests using a few different browsers, you want them all to use unique user logins so that their work doesn't conflict. You also have to think about how to design the tests such that multiple users can create and find objects within your web app such that their simultaneous usage does not cause conflicts. Since the testers are real people using a real web app, you cannot run too many test configurations at the same time, otherwise you will get dozens of people hitting the (test) server simultaneously -- and who wants to pay for enough test servers of high bandwidth in order to handle high loads of traffic, when all you really want to test for these sorts of tests is application functionality and logic?

Outstanding!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 June 7, 2018 Pros Its extremely convenient to use. Just run a test suite before deploying to production. You can be sure if you did not break things which were already working. It has good integrations. Cons Custom variables and screenshots are slightly difficult to maintain. There are cases when the test environment changes and changing the screenshots is difficult.
