Might just be easier to purchase the main devices your team QA's on. ----- ### "A great tool to test through different Browsers/OS versions" — 5.0/5 > **Analia** | *16 October 2024* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It provides great variety of Browser versions and Mobiles through emulator or real mobile phones available. > > **Cons**: It becomes costly when multiple instances need to be executed for automation purposes > > A great tool to test through different Browsers/OS versions, and mobile testing through multiple mobile make/model/versions ----- ### "Used for extensive automated tests in Java and Ruby" — 3.0/5 > **A** | *28 April 2016* > > Great\! I loved being able to watch back the tests to see exactly where they failed. ----- ### "Powerful solution with poor support" — 4.0/5 > **Andrei** | *28 April 2016* > > This is a good solution to scale your tests to multiple platforms. Cloud services such as SauceLabs allow you to save money and time you could spend for purchasing hardware, configuring it for running tests and maintenance. If you have test for one browser type, scaling it to different browsers types is easy (as all of SauceLabs browsers are driven via single WebDriver API). However, small updates in test code might be necessary due to browser specifics. SauceLabs pricing may look high, however, it is comparable to competitors' pricing. When thinking of cloud service provider you may compare them vs BrowserStack. For some usage plans (especially for small team) you may find cheaper options. Pros : Major browsers on major desktop and mobile platforms supported for both manual and automated tests execution. Parallel test execution. Manual access to the VM in the cloud (e.g., you can pause your test and drive the app in browser view). Managing test run and VMs via REST. Ready java-library available. Ability to record screenshots and video of running tests as well as commands log. Easy accessibility via WebDriver API. Environment spin up time Cons : Very slow support. They keep asking irrelevant questions or don't reply for a few days until they get more or less useful reply. Support speed depends on your account level. Intermittent connection the the browser loss issue (once upon 200 tests). "Non-natural" environment. Some of browsers has additional configuration that makes them a bit different from ones that users have. Not critical in most of cases though. New features released pretty raw. You may get stuck if you'll need to use some of their more rarely used features (e.g. Sauce Connect) as Support is normally slower there and bugfixes come later. New mobile platforms support released with sufficient delay (e.g. Android 6 released in summer 2015 was still not available at the moment of this review: April 2016). ----- ### "SauceLabs for automated and manual testing" — 5.0/5 > **zaineb** | *2 November 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: - it integrated well with most of test automation libraries/languages- the synchronised aspect and how fast tests were executed- manual debugging/inspection sessions on iOS and Android and I was impressed by the quality of the image and the video session generated at the end of each session (manual or automated)- very fast execution with native solutions (Espresso/ XCUITest)- has a variety of devices (real iOS and Android devices also Simulators/Emulators)- great support team > > **Cons**: it is a bit expensive if the number of users is smallintegration with CodeceptJS (what we wanted to use at the time) is not working properly ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/425586/sauce-labs?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/425586/sauce-labs) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
