CucumberStudio, now a SmartBear product since the 2019 acquisition, is a continuous testing platform replacing the former HipTest, supporting agile development with manual and automated code testing, reusable steps, feature history with living documentation, among other features.
I find Monday helpful for lead management. It's great because details like phone, email, and addresses are specific columns from which we can grab data and pull it into other areas. It's great to see who is assigned what and to know what the next steps are for your leads. We use a different scheduling tool with our team, as that calendar view isn't as robust.
HipTest is good and helpful to create and run functional regressions but it is more complicated to use this tool to create and run API testing scenarios (it does not mean it can not be done). This tool is definitively not appropriate for running performance testing scenarios.
UX is not too obvious and easy (like generating a data table in a scenario or including a scenario in a test run) but you can get used to it relatively easy by playing around with the options, also the documentation is helpful.
To get extra functionalities you have to pay for them separately.
I give a ten for monday dev's usability because it was a really smooth transition coming from Jira to monday dev. All team members also felt that way. When managing projects, the quality and various options I am able to customize views and columns for each task is really a dealbreaker. Approved.
The tool includes a basic but complete documentation that can be very helpful to get started using the tool. The UX sometimes does not feel very easy to understand but after some use you can get familiar without reading the documentation. The webinars are not very useful for using the tool, I have seen a couple of them and they are actually focused on promoting their HipTest product to new users instead of being useful and educational for current users.
We selected it because of our previous positive experience with monday dev. In addition, it gave us more options to tie in other parts of our business so it’s under one umbrella and then further automate things. The over tracking and monitoring ability is far better than others out there and allows you to keep a closer eye on how things are operating.
