I am frequently using live testing to verify the UI in different devices and IE browser

What is our primary use case?

Use of CBT to test the UI in different mobile devices since the experience is different with a real device vs. resizing window browser. Also, it's very useful to test the UI in Internet Explorer.

How has it helped my organization?

It helps to speed up the process to test the product in different devices and browsers, making it easy to troubleshoot some issues.

What is most valuable?

I am frequently using live testing to verify the UI in different devices and IE browser. Also, I've started using a screenshot, but it is not very useful for me, since the page does not load properly without loading another CSS file.

What needs improvement?

  • The speed to connect to mobile devices needs improvement, and sometimes the connection fails. 
  • Possibility to use web inspector in all devices (it is not available for OS devices). 
  • Also, easy access to run local files. I need to run a CSS file before loading the website, and sometimes, it does not work.
