Frequently Asked Questions
For a website to be compatible with every one of these combinations, it is integral to test webpages on different browsers. Without testing in real user conditions, device and browser-specific bugs are bound to show up when the site is accessed by users in the real world.
Consequently, QAs must be testing websites on different browsers and devices. This is essential to ensure cross browser compatibility for a website so that it can offer a top-notch user experience regardless of the device and browser used to access it.
An easy way to test websites on different browsers is to use BrowserStack Live. Just follow the steps below:
- Sign up for a free account on BrowserStack Live.
- Navigate to the Live dashboard.
- Choose from one of the many real devices and browsers available for testing.
- Test the website in question.
- Repeat the process with another device-browser combination.
Additionally, website loading speed is a major aspect of site performance. Pages that load within two seconds have an average bounce rate of 9%, while pages that load in five seconds see their bounce rates skyrocket to 38%. Naturally, executing a website speed test is integral to website testing.
Use BrowserStack SpeedLab, a free tool that allows you to enter a URL, and get a detailed report on how fast the site loads on multiple real browsers and devices( desktop and mobile).
Essentially, with one click, you get details on website load speed when accessed via different mobile devices and browsers. No need to open the site on multiple devices and browsers. Just one click on SpeedLab will suffice.
Simple. Use BrowserStack Live to view sites in different browsers, as per the steps outlined in the previous answer.
To start with, determine the target audience for your website. Identify which browsers, browser versions, and devices they use to browse the internet to reach your website. Those are the ones to start testing your site on.
Once you have tested on the most popular browsers, expand your coverage area and test on browsers that are in lesser use, but still in numbers significant enough to matter to your website’s audience. Ensure that you keep testing the site on newly released browser versions so as to stay relevant to your users’ preferences.
