Easy to set up, integrates well with other tools, and maintains traceability in STLC process
There is room for improvement, including the following: * We have limited widgets available in the tool to design UI flow. We would like to see other frequently used widgets like spin boxes, sliders, etc. * The table widget options such as display tables, modify tables, and select rows, should be enhanced. * It would be helpful to have a feature in the tool's UI to map object locators within the system. This will help to maintain automation scripts, keeping them in synchronization with Conformiq models. * Currently, we don't have an integration with the test data management tool. Having this feature will help for generating and maintaining test data.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"This product helps with understanding the design tool for the test case generation without manual writing of test cases in Excel."
"Conformiq generates a unique and optimized set of test cases, maintains them to the current application version by removing those for obsolete functionality, and, with proper integration to the automation framework, has enabled in-release and in-sprint automation for us."
"Conformiq integrates well with various automation tools and auto-generates between 60% and 80% of the automation scripts."
"Though optimized and automated test generation is the core functionality, the product's integration with other tools sets it apart."
"The tool has the ability to integrate with various requirement management, test management, and version control tools."
"We use TFS for forecast management."
"The most valuable feature of TFS is the central repository, and you can see what changes other developers did from which branch."
"We use it as our primary on-premise source control for both Git and TFVC allowing the flexibility for different delivery team to use different source control that best suits them."
"It's a good product and it's fulfilled all that I want it to do."
"The most valuable feature is having everything in a single interface, allowing quick and efficient browsing."
"Basically, the capacity to construct various products is something I find handy."
"If someone is looking for version control software and product management software today, then I would recommend them to go for Azure DevOps."
"All the features in it are essential for successful development projects, especially version control, defects tracking, SCRUM tools etc."
 

Cons

"Improvements on the List item widget and Table widget are needed."
"Even though the 4.1 version is a far-improved version from its earlier avatars, the performance of test generation is still an issue on real-time models we have."
"It would be helpful to have a feature in the tool's UI to map object locators within the system."
"I would like to see the output data optionally used as input for the model, as further action in the flow."
"We have limited widgets available in the tool to design UI flow."
"They should have design patterns in TFS for the development team, and design patterns for the QA."
"Test case management could be improved."
"The execution of test cases could stand improvement."
"Customization of build templates needs better tools and tracking and it should be more friendly on test lab setup."
"In the next release, I would like them to include integration for various projects, similar to what JIRA has, and they could create this feature on the dashboard."
"The project management side should be addressed and the project and release planning should be somewhat extended."
"The security model could be more granular."
"Throw a dart, you will hit something that needs improvement in TFS."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"On a scale where ten is the highest and one is the cheapest, I rate the solution's licensing cost at one on a scale of one to ten."
"There are different prices depending on the configurations. There is a free version available. There is no extra cost for the solution. However, the hardware could be something that needs to be considered."
"TFS is not cheap."
"Use the Microsoft recommended “seat-based” licensing model. This allows a single developer with multiple machines to consume only one client license."
"TFS is on the higher side, but if you intend to use the tool as a complete ALM tool, it will reduce your costs in the long run."
"The tool's licensing costs are yearly."
"The solution is expensive."
"I am not in a position to comment on the licensing terms, as we are talking about an enterprise arrangement."
