Overall Satisfaction with LambdaTest

LambdaTest is used as a cross-browser and cross-device testing platform. As we are part of the QA department and a remote setup, this addresses the issue of not having actual devices to test different operating systems and platforms. This also helps testing as it eliminates the need to have actual devices.

Pros

  • Very accessible as multiple users can be added in each subscription
  • Very reliable as it is very close to the actual device when it comes to operating system and version behavior
  • There are a lot of options for devices and browsers that users can choose from when it comes to emulating and testing

Cons

  • They can provide a faster and more efficient loading time so that users can be more efficient in testing
  • Although the free plan is a good starting point, some essential features, such as parallel testing, are only available with paid subscriptions
  • Increase more device model for more flexibility in using the app
  • It eliminates the need to have an actual device which cuts the cost for the company
  • It is very accessible and can be used with any browsers and operating system
  • It is very accurate in emulating the actual devices and is very reliable
There are still some aspects wherein LambdaTest can improve. It is not the whole package yet, but it can be in the future as long as improvement, support, and additions in the app are regularly visited. Bugs should also be fixed so that user experience can be seamless. It solves the actual need for users right now but still has a lot to improve on.
LambdaTest is a lot faster and has a lot of devices than its counterparts. They also provide a wider array of options for testing browsers and devices. Testing has been more efficient in my experience when I was using LambdaTest than with BrowserStack or any other emulators. More users can also user LambdaTest in parallel which is very fortunate for bigger QA teams.

Did implementation of LambdaTest go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy LambdaTest again?

Yes

LambdaTest is very well suited for cross-device testing as they provide a wide array of options to choose from. It is very reliable and mimics the actual device. In scenarios wherein the user is having an urgent issue and needs to emulate the bug, the app sometimes is quite slow and may hinder from having a very efficient testing.

Using LambdaTest

20 - Most of the users of the application LambdaTest are on the development team. They consist of software developers, programmers, project managers and business analyst. It is often used to test, develop and demo products to the client as there are limitations in actual devices. It is also used to emulate different scenarios when clients asks the team to replicate certain issues on specific devices.
There are currently no in-house support for LambdaTest at the moment. The support we receive is from the application support itself which is very responsive and can provide a very detailed instruction to fix certain issues and functionalities in the app.
  • Use case emulation
  • Testing in different browser and device versions
  • Demonstration to the client in different app variations
  • It can be used in different geolocations
  • It is very accurate in emulating devices which in turn provides accurate results in testing
  • Using vpn within the app which provides ease of access to the users
  • In depth bug replication and fixing
  • More device and browser version for better coverage of development
  • Accessibility testing on mobile
It is very reliable and can provide great results for all the stakeholders. Access is very quick and there are wide-array of devices that can be used to provide a robust application. Having limited resources on a remote setup really helps users to complete task with this emulator. This helps a lot in development team.
