BrowserStack Logo

BrowserStack is a favorite tool when having to test Mobile or do CrossBrowser testing. You have access to different browsers, devices, even different operating systems. But using this tool is not free, you need to buy a plan and pay an annual fee.

If you sign up with the free version you will have a 30 minute time limit and after that is over, you will be able to use the tool for one minute at the time.
This doesn't sound like much but it can help you with simple UI validations.
If this is something you would use in a daily basis, you can always go to your employer and ask for them to purchase the plan so you can access the unlimited version.

Free Trial on BrowserStack

If you want something more efficient for the long run you can use tools like:

  • Browserling
  • TestCafe
  • SmartBear
  • Comparium

(They all have a Free version and a Premium one) to use and enjoy.
