HyperTest Pros and Cons

As a developer, hypertest has taken away the burden of writing unit tests and various automations which are needed otherwise.

I can focus more on actual development and worry less about testing regressions in our system since it becomes very easy to identify these issues early on.

While integrating hypertest in our services, we got really good support from their team. Any issues we faced were solved very quickly.

Integrating it in our CI CD pipeline was also easy and done by github actions so tests are run upon every change.

Features like trace parent, tags and field level ignorance are well implemented and helpful for a micro service based architecture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I integrated NodeJs sdk of hypertest but need support for Golang as well. We know its in their pipeline so waiting for it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about HyperTest is that it can significantly improve the execution time for tests without compromising the quality. Also, it can be easily integrated with CI/CD pipelines to make sure that they can be executed before every release cycle Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Only available for Java and Node, Need to start supporting more programming language. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hypertest a great tool for integration testing with continuous updates. We are currently in process of integrating the tool with other services and the support from the team of Hypertest has been amazing. The process and features are well documented. This tool will help us to recognise bugs in our code and also improve on the code coverage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing in particular. Because of the regular updates, the run times and ease of UI is contuously being improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to deploy, run, and provide high level integration tests with automatic code coverage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Should add support for other languages like Go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

heled in finding less production bugs, easy for QA Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

database query , inter service mocking was kinda difficult Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to Implement, Tech support, Provides many Feature Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

frequently version changes affect service node modules Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about HyperTest is that you don't need to maintain any unit tests for your APIs. Any enhancements or additions to the APIs can be quickly tested, ensuring it is backwards compatible. So this makes sure of free bug-free deployments. The UI is very easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

HyperTest mirrors the requests on the server and creates test cases, but this becomes difficult on heavy-load production systems. Mirroring on staging platform can result in missing out on some test cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hypertest integration with our applications was pretty smooth from a backend perspective, and the developers were able to access it easily through the Dashboard directly and start with their tests. Also, the UI is very easy to use.This makes it the go-to solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Creating Hypertest test cases becomes difficult with production applications with heavy incoming traffic, we have to use a portion of the traffic in such cases to do the test. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. Very Helpful to Generate Test Cases for Regression Testing

2. Helps Teams to capture all the APIs concerning each service for all the flows we do manually

3. Easily Helps us to find any API Failures.

4. Really Like how middleware works to randomize the data Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. UI Needs to be Improved a little bit. Sometimes the pages don't load properly

2. set up a service sometimes need other members' involvement

3. It would be very nice if we have the option to run multiple services at the same test run Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to generate test cases

We would not miss any API being tested as Hypertest ensures all the requests are replayed from network traffic while running a test

This helps us in detecting any contract failures and data errors before releasing them into production Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

UI Is a bit overwhelming at times.

There is a dependency layer on the DevOps end for setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
