Need to convince my boss to get away from PowerAutomate to a better desktop application testing tool! Help me!
So my boss decided 2 years ago, that the application needs better testing and somebody on some conference told him about this powerful tool called powerautomate! He tried it out real quick and decided that this shall be the tool we should use for the "manual" test automation. But it sucks.
I joined the team 3 months ago and the testers are spending more time fixing flow errors than developing new tests. It is not even close.
Everyone is open for a new and better tool, but we need to convince the big boss, so we better have a prototype working and able to show him something.
Since we need to test a desktop application the prime tool Playwright sadly is not an option.
My rudimentary search called the top contenders to be UTF, Ranorex, Leapwork or TestComplete.
The software is developed in C# over the last 20 year, so it is quite the 3-4 million line of code monolith.
The software runs on a virtual desktop in the cloud.
Please help me find the best option for us and not letting me run into too many hazzards on the way.
