What a 5-year comparison looks like

Three cost profiles on the same generic suite. Open the calculator and Opkey and UiPath arrive as columns you can edit — your suite size, your release cadence, your rates, your quotes.

Test Automation Tool A
Test Automation Tool B
Manual

Same suite, three ways of paying for it. Yours will differ.

A new application tab is added to your workspace with Opkey and UiPath as its columns. Nothing you already have is replaced.

The scenario these figures describe

One application with 300 test cases (90 basic, 150 average, 60 complex).
12 full regression runs a year, each finding about 5 defects.
40 new cases added a year as the product grows.
A loaded cost of $120k per engineer per year across 1800 working hours.
A 5-year horizon.

Reference: what each category of tooling costs at this scenario

By category only — the numbers the chart above is built from.

Cost over 5 years	AI-native tool	Script-based tool	Open-source framework	Manual + per-seat tool
Labour	$39,867	$166,367	$303,333	$436,517
Licensing	$150,000	$37,500	$0	$22,500
Infrastructure	$30,000	$60,000	$90,000	$0
Total	$220k	$264k	$393k	$459k
Build effort	143 hrs	843 hrs	1,605 hrs	197 hrs

What to measure in a proof of concept

Three numbers decide most of the five-year difference between any two tools, and none of them is on a price list. Get each vendor to run a trial on your own application and time these:

Build time per test case — for a basic, an average and a complex case of yours, from requirement to a trustworthy pass.
Test breakage rate — the share of cases that stop working across one real release or upgrade, and the time to repair each.
Time to triage a failure — run the suite against a build with known defects and time how long it takes to tell real defects from false positives.

Enter those in the calculator in place of the estimates, add the quotes when they arrive, and the comparison is evidence you can put in front of procurement.

Run this with your own numbers

The estimates above describe a generic 300-case suite. Yours is not generic. Open the calculator — Opkey and UiPath are added as columns to your workspace — put in your case counts, release cadence, hourly rate and quotes, and take the result to the budget conversation.

Questions

Does either vendor publish pricing?

Neither. Opkey prices on request; UiPath’s testing plans are “Contact Sales”.

How do we account for a platform we already own?

Enter the incremental infrastructure cost rather than the platform’s full cost, and note it in the assumptions so the report says so.
