# BrowserStack.

BrowserStack provides cloud access to real browsers, operating systems and physical mobile devices, for manual testing and as an execution target for automated suites. It removes the need to own and maintain a device and browser estate.

## Where BrowserStack fits on a long engagement.

The economics are straightforward: maintaining physical devices and legacy browser installations is expensive, and most of that estate sits idle. A cloud service converts a capital and maintenance problem into usage, and gives access to combinations nobody would buy deliberately.

The discipline it requires is choosing the matrix from evidence. Analytics say which browsers and devices your users actually have; without that, teams test what they imagine rather than what matters, and either miss a real segment or pay for coverage nobody needs. Parallel execution is also the main cost lever and the one most often left at the default.

## What an assigned team does with BrowserStack.

The matrix is not a fixed decision. The installed base shifts every year, and a coverage list set at project start is describing users who have since upgraded or moved on.

Revisiting it periodically against real analytics is part of standing test strategy, assigned under [qa outsourcing](https://azendo.co/services/qa-engineering-and-test-automation/) rather than set once.

## What we use BrowserStack for.

* Coverage matched to real users A browser and device matrix chosen from analytics rather than assumption.
* Reproducing a defect on the exact combination Access to the specific OS and browser version a user reported, without owning it.
* Parallel runs that keep the pipeline fast Concurrency tuned so coverage does not come at the cost of feedback speed.

## How BrowserStack capacity is assigned.

Device and browser coverage is scoped from your analytics at the start, and revisited as the installed base moves. What that ongoing commitment covers is set out in [how the monthly fee is built](https://azendo.co/pricing/).

## Roles we assign BrowserStack for

* [Manual QA Tester QA and test automation](https://azendo.co/services/qa-engineering-and-test-automation/manual-qa-tester/)

## Service lines it sits in

* [QA and test automation](https://azendo.co/services/qa-engineering-and-test-automation/)

Capacity is agreed as a committed monthly capacity across a discipline, not per skill.
