browser based testing is a huge huge nightmare, mostly because of the transient nature of web development, things get changed very rapidly and a test suite that needs to be continously updated is less than useless.
I am surprised things like this arent more popular, although I doubt I will ever do unit testing as a service, Im pretty interested in seeing what they come up with.
It kinda looks like a testing tool, but I don't get what this actually is about. A 1-sentence description of why I need this tool, rather than a list of features, would be much more helpful.
Yeah, we know our front page is lousy right now; we've got a redesign and a much clearer explanation in the works.
You need our service to make sure your web apps work in all the popular browsers.
We've got a bunch of web browsers in the cloud which you can remote-control via and API, to make sure the features of your site work cross-browser. We use a popular open source browser automation tool called Selenium, which my cofounder Jason Huggins created.
I'm curious whether the above description makes sense, or still leaves you scratching your head!
They're not the same service. Browsermob does load testing. Sauce Labs does acceptance (aka functional) testing. When you want to make sure every feature of your site works in every browser, use Sauce.
During our beta, we'll let you try sauce's service for free if you ask nicely (and answer a few questions).
