    Home Documentation App Automate Parallel Tests Calculator

    Parallel Tests Calculator

    Faster build times and faster releases with Parallel Testing

    With Parallel Testing, BrowserStack Automate and App Automate allow you to run multiple tests in parallel across various browsers/devices and OS combinations. In this way, more tests can be run at a time, thereby decreasing overall time spent on testing. Faster build times mean faster releases and less time spent waiting for builds to complete. Read more to understand how parallel testing can help you achieve your test coverage and build execution time goals.

    Use this calculator to understand how many parallel sessions you need to achieve your test coverage and build execution time goals. You can also download an Excel version.
