Avijit Amitabh, Alstorm Test Delivery Manager

“We evaluated 9 tools, but PractiTest stood apart from others based on ease of use and their advanced integration features. The advanced easy-to-implement reporting features provide live transparency for management to get a clear picture of test status. The pricing is also quite competitive when compared with other major players in this domain.”

– Avijit Amitabh, Test Delivery Manager, Alstom

So, what is the verdict?

Both PractiTest and qTest are Agile compatible Test Management tools that offer end-to-end coverage of the entire QA process: Requirements, Tests and Test Case management, Issue Management and Reporting.

While qTest offers both cloud and server (in-house) hosting for its software, PractiTest is a SaaS only solution.

However, PractiTest became the most secure Saas test management tool after obtaining both SOC type II certificate and the ISO 27001 certificate and is now in compliance with the strictest security standards in the industry.

In addition, PractiTest offers an internal kanban task board that helps managing your projects in a more efficient manner.

PractiTest’s unique Hierarchical filters, make it possible to define parameters for test cases and test sets, avoid duplicate bugs, and in general offer a smarter way to easily manage all project information.

Match that with a designated user experienced discussion forum (on top of it’s in-app support) and PractiTest takes the lead.
