Cross Browser Visual Testing on Real Mobile Devices



We are proud to announce that Percy, the only visual testing platform, supports cross-browser testing on real, physical mobile devices. We're starting with iOS on Safari, and Chrome on Android. More combinations will be added soon. You can test on mobile devices by upgrading your plan to Percy Mobile or booking a demo to experience it in action.

Percy's new mobile plan announced

A separate Percy Mobile plan is also being launched. To use mobile browsers, you will need to upgrade. All Percy Mobile customers have access to Safari on iPhone (Beta) and Chrome on Android(Beta). For more information , please visit our pricing page.

You can activate mobile browsers by either one of these two methods if you've purchased the Percy Desktop & Mobile Plan:

Building upon BrowserStack's infrastructure

Percy's acquisition came about because of its ability to combine a great product and BrowserStack's infrastructure, making it the most popular platform for visual testing. We have grown from only supporting two browsers to now supporting all major desktop browsers, and now also supporting mobile browsers.

Building the best visual test platform

Percy was the first to introduce visual testing in 2015. This was to help developers make code changes confidently and bring visual testing to everyone. Percy is designed to make it easy for everyone to use and provide the tools you will need as you grow. We are constantly adding exciting new features to Percy. Keep checking this space.

Richard Bradshaw's automation strategy was a great example of this.   To make the information more widely available, I decided to post it as a blog entry. The test pyramid is a great test automation strategy. Mike Cohn introduced the test pyramid, describing how different teams have been performing the test automation in the software industry.   The test pyramid was not intended to be used for test automation.   Companies and teams have started to use the test pyramid as an automated strategy. This is wrong. It is crucial to testability All testing efforts must be based on testability.   Teams can easily test the s...
