What is BrowserStack Automate Playwright?

Optimise your testing process by running automation tests on BrowserStack’s Automate infrastructure.

BrowserStack’s Automate lets you test your native and hybrid apps on a variety of mobile and tablet devices. Devices you access are all real devices housed in our data centers.

What is BrowserStack Automate?

Automate is a powerful cloud-based testing platform designed to streamline and enhance your web and mobile application testing processes. Are your users on a wide range of devices and browsers? Do you want to test your web apps on real, not virtual, devices? Do you want to bring down your testing times? Do you want to test apps hosted in lower environments?

Automate is the answer to all of these questions. It enables you to test your web apps across a comprehensive range of real browsers and devices, so that you can rest assured of the user experience of your apps. Bring down test execution times by parallelizing your tests on Automate. And test your internally hosted apps just as seamlessly.

Run your tests on 3000+ desktop and mobile browser combinations

BrowserStack’s Selenium grid gives you instant access to 3000+ desktop and mobile browser combinations along with access to real mobile devices. Run your tests on all the latest browsers and their versions to ensure your web app’s compatibility with the browsers that offer maximum coverage. For a list of supported browsers, check this list.

Run test suites on BrowserStack in minutes

Use the BrowserStack SDK that allows you to integrate your test suites with BrowserStack Automate in minutes. Simply install the SDK, set up a YAML file, and trigger your tests to get started. Also, using the SDK helps you leverage features like parallel orchestration and local testing with ease. And all of this, with zero code changes! Get Started

Speed up test runs

With BrowserStack’s Selenium grid, you can leverage the power of parallelization to run hundreds of tests in parallel across browsers and devices. This helps reduce your test suite execution time to minutes.

Test your web apps even from your internal dev environments

As a best practice, you would want to test your web apps when they are hosted in your development environments. BrowserStack Automate allows you to run your tests on your web apps even when they are hosted on your private, internal networks. BrowserStack Automate uses a secure and encrypted tunnel using the local binary to test your web apps from dev environments. The local binary uses secure WebSockets (WSS) to ensure the security and privacy of your data.

Debug your web apps with ease

BrowserStack Automate allows your to seamlessly collaborate and debug with a range of logging tools for unlimited users from your organization. Use these logs to debug your failed test cases and fix them with ease.

Test apps in real-world user conditions

BrowserStack allows you to test the behaviour of your web app on different browsers under different network conditions. BrowserStack Automate offers several presets and also allows you to define your own custom network conditions to check your web app’s behaviour. You can also change the network conditions mid-way during the test run, just like in real world where the end-user’s network varies.
