How Do I Select Browsers & How To Do Cross Browser Testing?
It is quite impossible to test every device, browser, and operating system combination, considering the number of device/browser/OS combinations that exist. Instead, it’s more practical to focus testing on the browsers and operating systems your target audience uses the most. To do this, identify the most used browsers and platforms.
Based on Popularity
Choose top browsers and most commonly used browsers. Also, choose the most used platform, like Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS, to test. These are what the B2C applications optimize.
Based on Analytics
Take a look at your website or web application’s traffic on analytics tools like Google Analytics and find the most used devices/browsers/platforms used by users and test on those.

You can test your web, mobile, and desktop apps, as well as APIs on multiple device/browser/OS combinations on the cloud, and you can also run these tests in parallel for faster and more efficient testing.
