LT Browser allows users to test the mobile view of a website on different screen
sizes and resolutions. With over 50+ devices to choose from, LT Browser aims to make mobile
website testing easier, and ensure that a website is mobile responsive. Users can create their own custom
devices and save it for future uses. Create new mobile, tablet or
desktop devices and test a website on various devices, screen resolution
and perform screen resolution test for website on different screen…

Selenium is open source software for browser automation, primarily used for functional, load, or performance testing of applications.
I think LT Browser is one of the best programs I know to perform performance, usability, and experience tests on websites because it has a wide range of tools for this purpose; in addition, I consider that its price is affordable for professionals or freelancers with little income as well as for large companies that want the best tools, best of all, is that Lamdatest offers a free plan for students and I think LT Browser is also a very good tool for learning. On the other hand, and being quite honest, I can't find scenarios where LT Browser is not suitable in its area of application or what this software is specialized in.
When you have to test the UI and how it behaves when certain actions are performed, you need something that can automate the browsers. This is where Selenium comes to the rescue. If you have to test APIs and not the frontend (UI), I would recommend going with other libraries that support HTTP Requests. Selenium is good only when you have no choice but to run the steps on a browser.
Selenium is pretty user-friendly but sometimes tests tend to flake out. I'd say roughly one out of twenty tests yields a false positive.
Selenium software cannot read images. This is a minor negative because a free plug-in is available from alternate sources.
Slowness may be a minor factor with Selenium, though this is an issue with basically any testing software since waiting on a site to execute JavaScript requires the browser to wait for a particular action.
We love this product mainly because of its high customization abilities and the ease of use. Moreover, its free and can be learned easily through online communities and videos. The tests are more consistent and reliable as compared to Manual tests. It has enabled us to test a large number of features all in one go, which would have impossible through manual tests. The reports generated at the end of the tests are really helpful for the QA and the development teams to get a fair view of the application.
As I mentioned earlier, the reason I use Selenium is because there is a fairly widespread community of users, and user support services are at a good level. because the application is open source, it works on many platforms (Windows, Linux, IOS) without any problems. In addition, it gives us a lot of options for writing functional tests. For errors that we receive through the application, we can easily find the reasons for errors in the forums.
Selenium does not have technical support available easily. You have to go through forums to get the information you need. However, there are excellent forums out there that make it easy to troubleshoot. The open-source flexibility makes it difficult to have dedicated support.
We did everything we needed to use it. Now we can execute our tests on different operational systems and browsers running few tests simultaneously. We also implemented Appium framework to execute our tests on mobile devices, such as iPhones, iPads, Android phones and tablets. We use SauceLabs for our test execution and Jenkins for continuous integration.
One such product that my team eagerly anticipates testing for responsiveness is the LT Browser. The team has discovered that it is a straightforward process to test on the newest mobile devices utilizing the LT Browser. We may start testing our web pages on local systems by simply adding the URL. LT Browser's native developer tools enable us to make modifications to our code right away. It has a pre-installed selection of well-known devices and can operate in simulated mode.
At the time of adoption, there were not many other alternatives that were even close to being competitive when it comes to browser testing. As far as I know now to this day, there is still little competition to Selenium for what it does. Any other browser-based testing still utilises Selenium to interact with the browser.
