The document discusses the importance of cross-browser testing for ensuring a consistent user experience across different web browsers, operating systems, and devices. It highlights the need for such testing to identify application behavior on various platforms, support mobile app functionality, validate responsiveness to different screen resolutions, and report bugs during compatibility testing. Ultimately, cross-browser testing is essential for maintaining performance and compatibility of web applications in a competitive business environment.

In the current fast-paced business competitive environment, it is necessary for the
enterprise's business website to provide a stable user experience across various browsers to
be accessed easily by their end-users. Web browsers are software applications that are the
major medium for users to engage with a web application.
However, verifying the functionality of the application under different browser versions is not
the only purpose of cross-browser testing. Though cross-browser testing is known primarily
to test the browser compatibility, it is even applied for testing across various operating
systems, different hardware platforms, various geolocations, different OS versions, etc.
Primarily, it is essential for enterprises to identify that the application has to work uniformly
across different browsers for which cross-browser testing should be adopted. In addition,
it is also used to support other variations listed below.
To cross-check web app behavior on various
operating systems
By opting Cross-browser testing, the behavior of the application on various operating
systems can be identified. Similar to browser versions, even operating systems have different
versions. Hence, to assure whether the behavior of the web application is uniform across
various operating systems, cross-browser testing can be taken up.
For validating the Apps functionality on Mobile
devices
With the practice of cross-browser testing, it becomes easier to validate the functionality of
the mobile app on all mobile devices and their different operating systems. The practice will
efficiently help in maintaining a stable user-experience for the customers approaching
across various mobile devices and their different operating systems.
Assures the mobile app to be responsive to all
mobile specifications
By adopting cross-browser testing, validation of the mobile application’s response with
respect to the mobile viewports and screen resolutions will become easier
Validate the mobile app on various
Geolocations
The look and performance of the mobile app can be different when it is accessed using
different geolocations. By adopting cross-browser testing, such complications related to
change in the performance of the app in different geolocations can be identified and
resolved.
Reporting Web application bugs
While performing the compatibility testing, there are many chances of identifying bugs.
Ignoring the bugs at different stages affects application performance. Hence, by following
the practices of cross-browser testing, test engineers will be able to resolve the issues.
Gain control over unexpected scenarios with
Exploratory testing
Every app has its own specifications and cannot perform uniformly across browsers. Hence,
to avoid such situations, cross-browser testing methods should be taken up to achieve
compatibility.
