My Innovative Solution to Test Automation: Run the same test against a different browser at a click of a button
Simple and Efficient.
This is included in the “My Innovative Solution to Test Automation and Continuous Testing” series.
A decade ago, cross-browser testing was a hot topic. Why? There was no absolute dominated browser then (now, there is, Chrome). A serious web app needs to be verified on at least three major browsers: Internet Explorer, Chrome and Firefox. SauceLabs and BrowserStack are two companies that grew rapidly because of the need for cross-browser testing. Compared to the above, I had a much simpler and cheaper way to conduct cross-browser testing, using the BuildWise CT server. But it was the perspective of test suite execution. How to effectively perform cross-browser testing at the individual test level, i.e, at developing/debugging time?
Seeing this need, I worked out an easy solution with TestWise IDE: run the same test against a different browser with a click of a button.
