## Reviews

### "The best test management and execution tool for productivity of manual/exploratory testing teams" — 5.0/5

> **Muhd Hanzelah Zameer** | *3 April 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that TestFirst focuses on improving productivity of software testers by the means of carefully designed and implemented features. Some of my favorite features are:- The "Test Fragments" feature: The test cases can be treated as an individual test cases or as a precondition for another test case. It saves a lot of time and effort while writing tests and performing test maintenance.- The in-built annotation tool: Rather than taking a screenshot, pasting it in another image editing application and highlighting the sections of the screenshot, TestFirst improves productivity by proving screenshot taking and annotating within the application.- Jira integration ensures that the test cases' details concerning the related tickets can be seen directly in Jira, without the need to switch to the TestFirst application.
> 
> **Cons**: - There is a learning curve towards using the application to get the most productivity. During the initial phase, one is tempted to resort back to usual ways of executing tests.
> 
> \- Test case management has become very easy and time-saving- The speed of test case execution has increased significantly For an application which is free of cost, switching from other test management tools like TestRail, HP ALM is a no-brainer.

### "Excellent for boosting manual testing" — 5.0/5

> **Cem** | *9 May 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Test capture is just impressive. Amazing tool for either creating a suite from scratch or expanding one.
> 
> **Cons**: Very minor and infrequent UI transition glitches, and this is the only thing I can think of.
> 
> Amazing for a free tool. No down-side for trying it out and it will pay off quite nicely.

### "Easy & Best Test Management Tool" — 4.0/5

> **Vridhi** | *4 April 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The best part about the tool was the feature that allowed us to write test cases on the go while you are parallely testing the application. There is no need to switch between tabs or windows to add steps while writing test cases as the app allows you to write steps and attach screenshots while you are testing. Also it is so easy to create a bug as the steps to reproduce are automatically captured. For a manual QA, probably these two are the most painful points which are resolved in this application. The next best part is that the application has only necessary details and is not cluttered with too much information to wade around and fill. It lets the user to concentrate on what they really want to achieve. And the third one is that the team is receptive to feedback and they keep enhancing the product.
> 
> **Cons**: This is not a real minus but just that, I would have liked it better if there was an option to use as a website  than as a desktop application.
> 
> \- Easy to use - Best application for a team that's trying to set QA process from the scratch - Helps in some agile goals - Best tool for exploratory testing

### "Comprehensive test management tool for increased productivity, simplified interface and it's free" — 5.0/5

> **Rajith** | *18 April 2023* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: TestFirst is a very easy to use, user intuitive tool. I can create manual test cases, execute them on the go using the exploratory testing feature, very impressive. It's a very feature-rich tool yet UI looks very simple and do not distract users with too much information. It has Jira integration support and it's easy to create bugs including all necessary information. Also, visual representation of the test plans, tests are very powerful, it help teams to easily track progress.
> 
> **Cons**: Reports are not customisable, and has only in-built basic reports.

### "TestFirst Review End To End - Hands on Experience" — 4.0/5

> **Priya** | *20 April 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The most liked feature is the product response time. It is very fast both UI-wise and practically executing tests-wise. I honestly did not face any technical glitch or delay while working on TestFirst. It was absolutely seamless and easy.I also loved the customizations feature a lot, where users have the opportunity to customize the System's fields as per their own requirements.The UI design of the product was very easy to understand which makes it very accessible even for a beginner. I think that's why it would have an edge over other competitive tools in Test management.
> 
> **Cons**: When we open a test case, we have a heading that says "View Test Case" on top. I feel there should also be a button, or tab for editing the TC once we are on the view page. One can also incorporate delete, and duplicate buttons on the view TC page also.  I know that right-clicking on the TC will show these options, but once we open the TC, if these options show, it would be more workable for users.
> 
> My overall experience with TestFirst was seamless and easy. I loved its UI and the fact that it runs the Tests so much faster than the other test tools I had used before.
