Frequently Asked Questions

Build vs Buy is a common question when deciding whether to opt for an in-house infrastructure or a cloud-based online solution. When you are looking for wider test coverage, then opting for a Cloud Selenium Grid online is a feasible option. With solutions like BrowserStack you get access to 3000+ real device and browser combinations. It allows you to run tests on different browser-device combinations simultaneously with parallel testing. When looking for a faster, feasible, and cost-effective testing solution for cross browser testing at scale, online Selenium Grid is the apt choice.

Cloud Selenium Grid allows you to run tests on different device-browser combinations on different nodes simultaneously. This speeds up the whole testing process by leveraging Parallel Testing, enabling you to perform cross browser testing at scale. You can achieve wider test coverage within a short period of time by using online Selenium Grid.

 

Selenium Grid refers to a software testing setup that enables QAs to perform parallel tests across multiple browsers and devices with unique operating systems. It is essentially a setup that makes the entire functionality of a Selenium Grid directly accessible using cloud-based servers. Thus, it is called Selenium Grid on Cloud.

A Cloud Selenium Grid helps developers or testers address challenges associated with maintaining physical infrastructure. This is possible because the Cloud Selenium Grid provides users with an extensive range of device-browser combinations to test on. Besides, testers do not need to worry about maintaining or updating devices or browsers. That is taken care of by the Cloud Selenium Grid

Migrating an in-house Selenium Grid to the cloud makes automated testing of web applications independent of physical infrastructure. This eliminates the need to purchase and maintain devices to test on. A Selenium Cloud also provides high availability which reduces the risk of downtime.

Selenium Testing on Cloud makes it possible for QAs to perform extensive testing across numerous combinations of browsers and devices. This ensures that a web application is thoroughly tested for usability and functionality before it is released to end-users.

One must start with getting perfect clarity on test requirements. Then, search for a platform that provides a cloud-based Selenium Grid that meets these requirements. This will help testers ensure that their web app is thoroughly tested for a vast number of device-browser combinations.
