Sauce Labs Reviews

Vastly improved speed and reliability. Support is also excellent

Has freed up huge amounts of time managing integrations. We have been able to move to a two-week sprint schedule, which had been bottlenecked by manual QA.

The way the owner/user/sub-user hierarchy is set up can be confusing. It would also be nice to have more control over who can see what tests.

One and a half years.

No.

No.

Early on we had some difficulity with parallelizing large runs, but they were resolved.

Excellent!

Exceptional!

No

It was quite straightforward. All we did was integrate Sauce's sample scripts into our base test and then modify, once we got the hang of it.

In-house.

High.

Start with what you need and scale up.

Yes, Testbot and BrowserStack.

The effort you'll save not maintaining a grid makes Sauce worth it, even without any of its other features

I have found it very valuable that Sauce Labs gives me the ability to integrate testing on multiple web browsers into our Jenkins Pipeline.

It has made our end to end testing roughly 25 percent faster.

I think there could be improvements in the way Sauce Labs provides support to its users and could maybe provide tutorial videos on its services.

About 4 months.

No.

Minor ones but they were on my end.

Our application is relatively small so no

10/10

9/10

No.

It was very straightforward but there was a slight learning curve.

In House.

10/10

The free version works just fine.

No.

Nope! But in a future release I would like to see a more seamless integration with mobile testers.

The beyond convenience to test websites and applications on any platform necessary.

In the past, I would have to find all the devices I could to live test pages. But now, I can virtually test the devices I need, plus a lot more devices that I wouldn't be able to get my hands on.

Just continue to support new versions as they come out. The speed can be a little slow, but other than that it's great.

At least five years.

We've had no issues with deployment.

It's been stable.

No issues with scalability.

It can be used in a very wide spectrum of environments and has a high speed of access when running tests against these environments. 

The environments are really easy to configure and the UI is very friendly. 

Another great feature is the monitoring of test executions in real-time as well as the ability to perform actions on a testable web page. 

It also has video recording and full logging, which are great and helpful functionalities.

I think that I found maybe only a few gaps which I don't think are very important. These are more like improvements which need to be added. 

It would be very good to see a short example of the code that needs to pass into Driver capabilities, something like auto-generation of this block. 

Also, it's not obvious where to look for the API key. It would be very nice to have a button on the top navigation menu.

No issue with deployment.

No issue with stability.

No issue with scalability.

My general overall impression of Sauce Labs is very positive. I use Sauce Labs and recommend it to every engineer.

Being able to test on Windows without a VM has been a life saver.

We've had issues with IE (of course) and being able to run my selenium tests without needing to set up a virtual machine has not only made my day a lot better, but the whole process was stupidly simple.

We've been able to reduce the number of applications running on our server, and therefore reduce the processor costs.

Honestly, I can't really think of anything. It's been a joy to use and so incredibly simple.

Hands down, would recommend.

• Parallel and flawless execution of automation test
• Go sync with any CI and CD tools

Prior to implementation we had a three month release cycle. Using Sauce Labs we were able to move to daily releases. Due to stable remote environment, we started believing in the product and now we are in true CI and CD.

Every product has room for improvement but for me it provided an all together complete solution that catered for all my needs.

I used Sauce Labs for two different organizations over the last three years, primarily for remote automation test execution and automation test lab management.

All you need is an access key. There is no client deployment required.

They provide good information if there is any downtime needed, hence one can plan accordingly.

No issues encountered.

Good.

Good.

No previous solution was used.

It's a very simple initial setup.

We are now on our fourth quadrant of agility and this tool helped us.

We also looked at Browser Stack.

Just go for it.

* Video Recording of Test Runs

* Snapshots

* Mobile Web, and Native Mobile Support

* Running Tests in Parallel 

* API to return test results and metadata 

Sauce labs is an easy to use hosted infrastructure for managing/launch all browser versions, mobile web browsers, and native mobile applications for seamless integration testing. I have used them at Bleacher Report while I was working as a QA Engineer for 2 years now and their has not been a tool that provided the same feature set and ease of use.

The fact that they contribute back to the open source community is also another great reason to use them. The tools they help deliver (like Appium) have helped our team scale while keeping our QA department very lean.

3 Years

Our primary use case is for cross-browser automation. 

One more improvement would be the cost. It would be great if we can get more competitive pricing especially in terms of Real devices. Apart from this, I don't see any drawbacks. I love the support team. The user interface is very easy to integrate. It has solved so many hurdles very easily and my company is very happy.

The most valuable feature is the cross-browser feature, it has many android and iOS devices both simulators and real devices. It's easy to integrate. I also like video recording too. 

The only drawback is the speed, it will be good if we have a server in Asia too. It will be great if we can improve speed while initialization and execution.

We have been using Sauce Labs for 3+ years. 

The stability is excellent.

Scalability is very good.

Highly recommended.

We also evaluated AWS Device Farm.
