Sauce Labs

A hosted grid of real browsers, operating systems, and devices to run tests against, so compatibility is checked somewhere other than the developer’s own machine.

I used Sauce Labs at Starkmedia and at UW-Milwaukee, for the Graduate School and the Office of Research, to check sites against browser, operating system, and device combinations that I could not reproduce on my own machines.

Experience highlights

  • Reproduce a rendering problem by requesting a VM with a specific operating system, browser, and version.
  • Compare engines that differ by platform, such as Chrome on iPadOS against Chrome on macOS.
  • Fall back to real hardware when an emulated browser is not close enough to the real thing.
  • Liked it enough at Starkmedia to keep using it after I left.

    Last year, I wrote the post “My preferred tools for coding” and I figured that this was a good time to update that list. A lot of this stuff is also listed on the resources page of my main website.

  2. My prefered tools for coding

    Back in 2011, I wrote few short posts about what I install right after reinstalling windows. I figured that 9 years is enough time between these kinds of posts. This time, I’m going to go over my prefered tools for writing code.
