Presentation Abstract
With the advent of web 2.0 technologies and the explosion in birth of web browsers on desktops, tablets and mobile devices are triggering issues & challenges towards the compatibility testing of your web applications across all supported platforms. Today end-users are willing to adapt latest browsers due to their enhanced technological abilities and there is a strong push from browser manufacturers for their enterprise users to adapt new browsers which are rich in many ways to deliver content on web.
The phenomenal growth of mobile environments presents abundance of devices having modern hardware as comparable to desktops overlapping diverse software configurations. Such diversity is posing a strong challenge in web application deployment and requires unique cross browser compatibility testing strategies. In this technical paper, we pose the problem of cross-browser compatibility testing of modern web applications as a ‘functional consistency’ check of web application behavior across different web browsers and present a solution to automate it.
