Some people might call it <em><strong>browser compatibility testing<\/strong><\/em> other refer to it as <em><strong>cross browser testing<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The main goal of browser testing is to ensure that a website or web application works in a given browser.<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>So, in order to perform <em><strong>modern browser testing<\/strong><\/em>, you need to think beyond the topic of browser tests. When it comes to modern browser testing, compatibility testing itself plays an immense role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of compatibility testing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are various types of compatibility tests. Those types include the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Hardware tests<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>OS tests<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Device tests<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Browser tests<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Automated vs manual browser testing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When getting started with <strong>browser testing,<\/strong> you might wonder if you should choose an automated browser testing approach or a manual one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to decide if you want to run browser tests without any human intervention (= automated browser testing) or with human intervention (=manual browser testing).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"799\" height=\"601\" src=\"https:\/\/usersnap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/automated-manual-browser-testing.png\" alt=\"automated manual browser testing\" class=\"wp-image-5226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/usersnap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/automated-manual-browser-testing.png 799w, https:\/\/usersnap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/automated-manual-browser-testing-300x226.png 300w, https:\/\/usersnap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/automated-manual-browser-testing-140x105.png 140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 799px) 100vw, 799px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to decide what\u2019s the best way for you, I\u2019d recommend to check out <a href=\"https:\/\/usersnap.com\/blog\/bug-reporting-workflow\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this article<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Browser Testing Plan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can\u2019t just start <a href=\"https:\/\/usersnap.com\/blog\/web-application-testing\/\">testing your new prototype, website or web application<\/a> in various browsers and conduct some browser tests. You need a proper plan for that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When starting with your browser testing plan you need to answer the following questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Which browsers are used by your target audience?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Can you ensure the availability of all those browser versions?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Which devices are needed for conducting those browser tests?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To answer these questions and put those answers in a test specification document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to execute browser tests<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While executing browser tests with the defined test specifications, you need to pay close attention to the following areas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Content<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Layout<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Functionality<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Other specifications<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Content<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When testing your web application or website in various browsers you need need to ensure that your content (text, images, videos, audio) behaves as expected and defined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Are all images available across browsers?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are used fonts working for every browser version?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are all audio files available for every browser?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Can the content be consumed on every browser version?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Layout<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With various browser versions available, chances are high that certain layout elements do not behave as expected. Therefore, make sure to check the following questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Is the layout consistent?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are all layout element behaving as expected?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Is the (responsive) layout working in all browser versions?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are animations and effects running smoothly and as expected?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Functionality<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The features and functionality of your website or your application are probably the most important things to test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The experience your users are having will decide if those users will adapt to using your product or not. So, better make sure to take the following questions into consideration:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Are all features useable in the targeted browser versions?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are all available integrations and 3rd party services running as expected?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are all forms and other dynamic interactions working across browsers?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are all interactions working equally good with touch input (e.g. from a mobile device) and mouse input (e.g. from a desktop computer)?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Browser Testing Checklist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All those mentioned criteria must be checked in every browser testing project.
