Overall Satisfaction with Sauce Labs

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Sauce labs being used across the wider organization. We have an enterprise account which allows us to run tests across multiple browsers and OS devices. Also having access to different browser versions for exploratory testing/checking bugs in different versions gives a lot of flexibility. It allows us to run large numbers of tests concurrently.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Video recording
How quickly the browsers get provisioned
The API to pull out extra test information

Cons

The availability of real devices
Better filtering of the JSON results
The UI was better before changes

Likelihood to Recommend

It's great for the browser/browser version/OS availability. The videos are a good selling point to the business etc.

While it allows you to run large numbers of tests concurrently, there is a performance hit since tests are going over the internet. Faster feedback would be nice from a CI perspective.
