Cloud testing has improved parallel web and mobile validation with videos and logs for faster analysis
Pros and Cons
  • "Selenium Grid in the Cloud has had a positive impact on my organization as we are able to run in an isolated area, helping us obtain healthier results and find common usage examples when we want to implement anything."
  • "To improve Selenium Grid in the Cloud, I think it is important to integrate desktop recording because we need to use Selenium Grid in the Cloud with desktop applications in some cases."

What is our primary use case?

My main use case for Selenium Grid in the Cloud involves integrating Selenium and Appium tests together. We are integrating them in the same case, running parallel tests, and we are using the BrowserStack platform, which allows us to run in parallel and also access the video records of them.

A specific example of how I use Selenium Grid in the Cloud for one of my projects is when we run our Appium and Selenium tests on LambdaTest while using a video meeting platform in Astrak. For example, we start a video meeting web-to-web, using Selenium on both sides, but if it is web-to-app, we use Selenium with Appium. This setup ensures the video reaches both sides, and the voice can be transmitted, allowing users to chat and control their cameras and audio.

Generally, we can get the video records of the tests, obtain the logs, run parallel tests, and utilize different capabilities, such as starting browsers and accepting permissions like camera and microphone.

What is most valuable?

The best features Selenium Grid in the Cloud offers include access to different Selenium versions, various browser versions, and the ability to run parallel tests. These are important parts.

These features help my team significantly because we are able to run tests faster and cover more cases. When we run different browsers, we can cover more cases, and running parallel tests allows us to execute tests faster.

One important aspect of the features is that when we face any issues, we can open the video records and logs. This is the main use case for me.

Selenium Grid in the Cloud has had a positive impact on my organization as we are able to run in an isolated area. It helps us because we are not running locally; we are running on Selenium Grid in the Cloud, which allows us to obtain healthier results and find common usage examples when we want to implement anything.

What needs improvement?

To improve Selenium Grid in the Cloud, I think it is important to integrate desktop recording because we need to use Selenium Grid in the Cloud with desktop applications in some cases. There are limitations that could be addressed with this integration, as we have limitations in the browser offerings.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Selenium Grid in the Cloud for around five years. I used it before on LambdaTest for around three years, and now I am currently using it again for almost two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Selenium Grid in the Cloud is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Regarding scalability, we are able to run more tests easily.

How are customer service and support?

I haven't required customer support at this point. I talked with the BrowserStack team on the Appium side, but I didn't need any help on Selenium Grid in the Cloud side.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I previously used LambdaTest, but not here. I worked directly for the LambdaTest company. I haven't used any other platform aside from LambdaTest and BrowserStack.

How was the initial setup?

Before choosing Selenium Grid in the Cloud, I checked Sauce Labs, and I didn't explore any other options. I focused on LambdaTest.

What was our ROI?

I have seen a return on investment because it helps us save time. If we don't use the cloud, we need to set up Selenium Grid and other things ourselves, but in the cloud, everything is ready for us, which allows us to save our time.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that I think the price can be improved. The value is high, but for now, we are using it, and our expectation is better.

What other advice do I have?

My advice to others looking into using Selenium Grid in the Cloud is that the logs and video records help us when some cases fail, and running in parallel allows us to save time and obtain results quicker. This is the most important part for me. I give this product a rating of 9.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
