Overall Satisfaction with BrowserStack

The product on which we are working have to support multiple devices and browser. BrowserStack provides a wide range of devices and browser will almost all versions. We are using BrowserStack for Local testing, Manual testing as well as to run our automation script on daily basis. We need to test out code locally before deploying it on any environment, so Local testing came in handy for this.

  • Improved quality with daily automation execution
  • Broader range of device help to cover multiple devices
  • Local testing help to find early stage bugs
Site loading is a little bit slower on BrowserStack and sometimes it faces timeout. For the automation script also some of the tests failed due to slowness in page loading. Some devices and their different browser version not loading every time and need to try loading multiple times. I have VPN installed in my system for which sometimes local testing also gives errors while loading.
Yes, it has increased test coverage over multiple devices. We have found multiple bugs by using iOS/Mac safari browser on BrowserStack. Some of the issues we missed during testing using Chrome browser simulation for other devices, but it is found while using BrowserStack. So now we perform multi-device and multi-browser testing on BrowserStack only.
I have only used BrowserStack.

  • For multi-device and multi-browser testing it is best available platform. It provide actual device experience instead of browser simulation that increase confidence of product quality.
  • Automation report has video recording that actually helped us to find out issue in application/script easily.
  • It lacks in Multi-culture testing as there is restriction to change device region and timezone
