Pros/Cons
  • Pros

  • The customer service is very responsive and helpful. The best is that Android UI tests run on Genymotion emulators and therefore are super fast and reliable.
  • The feature that I most like of codemagic Is: codemagic is easy to use and help to speed up the process of software development and testing. Integrations with slack is other of my favorite feature.
  • Not to mention the generous free tier and the excellent documentation and guides/blog posts such as the ones describing how to handle Firebase configuration files safely.
  • Cons

  • Ugly build logs are on a black background (by design).
  • What's the point of charge for another seat. For me it's only an inconvenience.
  • Setup of environment some time crash wich broken pipeline. Runned test not always match with local machine.

  • Pros

  • I love Microsoft Visual studio for its powerful engine, across the operating systems development capabilities, easy support and the quite affordable licensing fee.
  • It has a very friendly user interface and is overall a great product for anyone who is looking for a programming software that supports every language.
  • I truly recommend this for developers as it has free version too which will be best for those who want to learn development.
  • Cons

  • Licensing is a little expensive. Sometimes, code compilation error messages are misleading that confuses the developers with what the exact issue is.
  • The only con to Visual studio is its User interface as it becomes very boring to code on an interface which has no plugins and drag and drops options.
  • The installation process is tedious and can mess with Windows setup. If you lose power or run out of battery while installing, you might have to start again from scratch, or mess a file system.
