Is it possible to do cross browser testing?
In this type of testing, it is not possible to cover many browsers and also, the application might not be tested on major browser versions. Also, performing cross-browser check manually is costly and time-consuming too. Cross-browser testing is basically running the same set of test cases multiple times on different browsers.
Do you need to test your website on different browsers?
With the advancement in technology, there are several options available for browsers, and it’s not just enough to make a website work on one of the browsers. Users should not be restricted to use any specific browser to access your application. Thus, it becomes necessary to test your website’s compatibility with different browsers.
Is it possible to know what browsers your users are using?
