CrossBrowserTesting was used to test our UIs by running manual, visual, and Selenium Tests in the cloud. We relied on the results of this tool to see the compatibility of our interfaces, especially in mobile screens, and also continuously test with CI/CD integrations.

We used CrossBrowserTesting to ensure that any new pages for our website or emails that we are sending as part of a campaign display properly amongst a wide range of devices/browsers. Since my company was global, our userbase reached the site in many different ways, and it was important that we provided a great experience for everyone.

I used this product as part of testing my product on multiple devices, environments. I used it for testing web application and mobile application. Using CrossBrowserTesting tool it was easier to test on multiple (versions of) browser and devices, which was helpful for our business as it was being used by Field Engineers in hospitals.

We use CrossBrowserTesting to do exactly what its name says - cross-browser testing of our website across multiple browsers, versions of browsers, operating systems, screen resolutions, and mobile devices. It allows us to do both regression testing as well as integration smoke tests. We particularly like the ability to do interactive tests for new features.

We run every site through CrossBrowerTesting before we launch the site into production. It helps us find UI and layout errors quickly on different browsers. It also helps us track down bugs that our clients are having that we can not test because they are using an older version of a browser or OS. We can pinpoint the exact browser and OS they are using and solve the bug relatively quickly.

CrossBrowserTesting is used solely by me in my department which is Communication/PR. I am a Front-end Developer and I maintain multiple websites for our Nursing school. Testing these sites for mobile and responsiveness overall is not an easy task but I am very grateful there is a product like this to help me.
