CrossBrowserTesting Hit or Miss
Pros
- Allows me to test on our development server with ease which is behind a firewall.
- Using automation for my tests.
- Screenshots of the problems on each page.
- Ability to jump between screen sizes quickly.
Cons
- Testing on each mobile device can be very slow to load
- Does not seem to keep the mobile device list as updated as i would like
- When comparing their results to my actual phone the results do not match
- Mobile debugger talk forever to load and is slightly clunky to use
Most Important Features
- Having a platform to actually test devices.
- Screenshots
- Mobile debugging
Return on Investment
- I would say mostly positive for the service they offer
- Negative is how much time you will need to do this testing

CrossBrowserTesting is a tool that makes testing on different devices/browsers nearly painless
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
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.
Pros
- Wide range of devices/browsers available to test.
- Screenshots are taken of test cases that fail.
- The UI is clean and user-friendly.
Cons
- Test case support is somewhat limited in customization ability.
- Not a unique problem to them (or their 'fault'), but content behind VPN or intranet cannot be scanned.
- Pricing with tier level and features can sometimes be confusing (ie. what is and what is not included).
Most Important Features
- Many device/browser testing options.
- If a particular test case fails, screenshots are taken so that we can make appropriate fixes.
- The interface is straightforward and easy to learn quickly.
Return on Investment
- Reduced customer/visitor frustration from issues with website on their device/browser.
- Keeps the entire team on the same page with respect to what devices/browsers we are testing on.
- Allows us to deliver a higher quality site with less time spent on QA/UAT.

A tool you need for testing on the web
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
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.
Pros
- Test Continuously With CI/CD Integrations.
- Selenium and Appium test automation.
- Generate multiple screenshots of the same interface from different devices, operating systems, and browsers at once.
- Run visual comparisons of the same web page on the same browser or mobile device from a previous test session.
- Show layout differences.
Cons
- Relatively slow.
- Expensive.
Most Important Features
- Automate visual testing for a pixel perfect rendering on every screen.
- Compare screenshots across browsers.
- Automatically share test results with stakeholders.
Return on Investment
- By using CrossBrowserTesting we are saving many hours a week in manual work hours.
- Our automated Selenium tests run in a fraction of the time it takes to manually test our components, so we can spend more time building great user experiences and less time triaging bugs.
