BrowserStack pocketdynamo Capabilities Constraints and Use Cases
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We primarily use BrowserStack for cross browser testing and cross device & mobile testing.The main business problems which we are addressing using this tool is that we are able to test our application performance on real mobile devices not just emulators and validating the responsiveness and behaviour on different screens.Apart from that we are also able to emulate certain applications in Windows XP emulator( to test the applications running on old IE9 browser for few products of ours)
Pros
- Provides well set up emulators for mobile testing
- Provides the complete setup for cross browser testing needs
- Test locally hosted or staging apps in BrowserStack Local
Cons
- Can improve the readabality of the UI interface for clear understanding
- Can include Desktop Automation features
- Can improve the performance side of the tool for bulk testing
- Can improve the number of parallel tests which can be carried out in the license plan
Likelihood to Recommend
1)Cross browser testing -Best case
2)Real device or emulator testing -Best case
3)Parallel Execution and Integrating well with CI/CD tool -Best case
3)Desktop Automation -Less appropriate
