AetherCI vs Cloud-Radar

Both stand on ci failure analysis and flaky test tools. Which one you can start free with, which one lets you read the code, and what each costs once you pay.

Cloud-Radar provides local template checks as well as functional testing through Taskcat and boto3. Its Pre-Alpha classification, limited transform support, and placeholder Ref and GetAtt values are important considerations.
