Parasoft Virtualize Likes & Dislikes
Accelerates software delivery : Early and parallel testing : Teams can test continuously without waiting for dependent systems, removing major roadblock in the development process. Removes environmental dependencies. Developers and testers lo longer need to depend on the availability of third party services , APIs, or legacy systems, which are often costly or time constrained to access.
1. ability to get real world simulations with data layer filters and stress testing 2. The support for all types of messaging format's 3.Report and dashboards are also a good addon if your team wants a top level view of the test iterations
virtualization of third party services and testing error scenarios for API.
High Initial Cost. Even if you already got license to use Parasoft SOA, Parasoft CLI, this virtualization tool is charged separately which involves significant initial investment in software and hardware. While the basics are easy , some reviewers have noted a steep learning curve for understanding all the components and advanced features like DTP, CTP and EM. Waiting for LEVEL 2 support from Parasoft to resolve any simple issue, some users in our team complained about multitiered support noting that they had to wait for different level of support team and keep updating the requests in their website as feature requests . Potentially introduce bottle necks .
1. the setup and moderation curve is a little bit complex and time consuming 2. maintaining the versioning of your app with frequent API updates and new app releases it is some time taking extra efforts in changing the configurations at the same time you can create a new project instance 3. onboarding cost of the tools and services is on the higher side
The tool can be complex for beginners. require significant time to understand and create virtual asset

Parasoft: Real-World Test Simulations Amidst Performance Issues
Parasoft is good for testing your service with real world like test data giving you enough to make it support powerfull i think the feature of sharing the test environment with multiple teams is great but there are some performance issues related to it if you are getting the sets to big but all in all it is great for projects where you need fast mockup and real world testing simulations
