Overall Satisfaction with Sauce Labs

We use Sauce Labs for our test automation and manual browser checks within our department. The strength of Sauce Labs is it lets us provision different OS/browser combinations and run our automated tests to make sure we have regression coverage on what our users have. Without Sauce Labs, we would have to manually stand up and tear down these environments in our cloud hosting environment.
  • Extensive OS/Browser combinations.
  • Integration with Selenium and TestRail to run tests and report results.
  • Integration with Jenkins for provisioning.
  • We could use a dashboard showing Pass/Fail across multiple test runs.
  • Developing proxy tests where we can check header and network calls is a bit difficult to setup.
  • Mobile testing is still somewhat lacking. Need additional options for mobile web testing.
We previously used AWS and switched to Sauce Labs because of the ability to use numerous OS/browser combinations and not having to set those up in AWS.
Sauce Labs is well suited for testing across multiple OS/browser combinations for desktop or mobile web. It is less appropriate for mobile app testing and could use other options for testing real devices. In addition, Sauce Labs has limited environments outside the US, so it is not appropriate if testing is needed for international or global testing.
