No progress with the other tool while the pressure on the manual testers increased.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu ZeuZ

After a proper vendor selection and testing all the rest, and this was the conclusion:Zeuz is an all-in-one test automation platform that can be implemented on Desktop, Cloud, Mobile and Web applications.It is a web based application with the test designs and executions stored on our own servers. Multiple users can write tests and login to the web portal at the same time and executions are on a per node basis.It is able to run tests in parallel across cloud,web,desktop and mobile whilst only having to create and build your test case once.It can integrate with CI pipelines in GIT, Jira and Jenkins and other tools.It has a robust inspection element for desktop application automation and a recording element tool for easier application.The recording tool will also review 20 levels of hierarchy to identify parent sibling relationships to ensure that there are no duplicates or potential of future duplication. In which case it will provide additional parameter to reduce the search condition and restrict the search condition within a specific boundary/hierarchy.Implementing this as a testing tool will tackle the issues detailed above from our objectives, with the main objective being to tackle the time and resources spent on regression.

NVP Software Solutions is in the business of evaulating Testing Life Cycles and managing large test projects. As such our main interest is in the ability to report progress and ensure stakeholders are kept informed of testing progress. Our interest in ZeuZ is to provide a platform to our clients to help them in their automation.
The fact that everything is in a database (unlike some other products) means that almost any report can be generated.

Nachteile

Interface is still evolving. Need to make sure that existing functionality is not lost.

Vorteile

- Tested our Android app, Apple app, and website using the same test cases
- No coding was necessary for our testing needs
- Easy to change test cases when we changed our process flow
- Cut down our development time saving us on cost
- Ran daily automated test sets
- Streamlined our bug fixes
- Very short ROI
- Used the ZeuZ Project Management to run our development and daily company activities

Nachteile

- As a small company, at first it was daunting to use ZeuZ, but within a matter of hours it was easy to use for even our non-technical people.
- Moved our development over to the ZeuZ project management, for our small company at first the implementation was difficult but that was not because of the software.

Vorteile

My favorite things about ZeuZ include its integration with 3rd party apps, the support from the team, and the document storage. As a developer, there wasn't a need to run ZeuZ testcases, as that was not my job. ZeuZ shined with CI/CD, where it would immediately tell me if a build failed due to bad or incorrect code. Having this immediate feedback improved developer speed, since there was no need to wait for a failure to be flagged once QA started testing our new builds at the end of sprints. Every commit and every push is able to be configured in a way that ZeuZ will take and perform the important tests, and even a regression test if possible. The [sensitive content hidden] is quick in providing help and is able to integrate all these third party applications, and has an excellent team of offshore testers that respond quickly and were very helpful. Working with the ZeuZ team is a pleasure- they can back the product up very well, through demos, integrations, and product questions.
Another great thing was the integration with mattermost using webhooks- as builds were tested on ZeuZ, the results would get spit back to the main communication channel used by the entire company. This meant that developer's didn't need to spend time going into the ZeuZ UI, finding the test, and parsing its results- since the results were already in a digestible and clean format. The ZeuZ ui is great for QA and testers, but speaking for many developers, it contains information that isn't as particularly useful as it was to the QA team- so having the important information was key. This integration, alone, managed to speed up developer efficiency and reduce bugs during each sprint.
Last, one important thing to note was the document storage. Depending on the application you run, this may not be as important, but this was an excellent tool for my company. ZeuZ can store testcases and mock data used inside of its server, which allowed me to grab edge test cases quickly, and test these before pushing code, which in turn, also led to less bugs at the end of each sprint when making changes or adding new features.

Nachteile

As a developer, there weren't many issues using ZueZ. I had no problems finding information I needed, and I never ran into any issues with software. I think the main points would be a nicer UI, along with stronger version control system where data is stored.
