SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Sep 9, 2015) - Sauce Labs, Inc., the leading cloud-based web and mobile application testing platform, today announced support of its automated testing platform for Microsoft Edge and OS X El Capitan. This announcement highlights Microsoft's confidence in automated testing for web and mobile applications through its use of the WebDriver protocol with Selenium and Appium. Sauce Labs, which is built on both Selenium and Appium, continues to lead the market as the first to support the latest developments in automated testing.
Organizations continue to feel immense pressure to deliver better software, faster. In order to succeed, developers must stay ahead of operating system updates from Apple and Microsoft. Using Sauce Labs, developers have the ability to test the latest operating systems and browsers, including beta versions of Chrome and Firefox, so they can run automated tests with their apps before the new software is generally released.
As a means to address today's market needs, development teams are embracing new software delivery processes and philosophies such as Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD). While both practices have proven their value in accelerating software production beyond traditional approaches, they are not easy to implement -- particularly the critical functional and regression testing components.
Sauce Labs is the high-performance automated testing service optimized for CI and CD workflows. The company's continues to see overwhelming market demand, with more than 340 million tests run on its platform to date.
In addition, Sauce Labs announced it is a platinum sponsor and will present at Selenium Conference 2015, taking place Sept. 8-10 in Portland, Oregon.
