Sauce Labs announced<\/a> on Wednesday (April.24th) that it has acquired Screener, a leading provider of automated visual testing solutions, for an undisclosed amount.<\/p>\n

Screener allows enterprises to test their UI across several different browsers, devices, and operating systems to automatically detect and identify any visual mistakes for easier integration into the DevOps workflow.<\/p>\n

Sauce Labs<\/h3>\n

With the acquisition, Sauce Labs can integrate visual testing into the functional testing<\/a> workflow, enabling users to deploy both visual and functional testing without sacrificing the convenience and simplicity of working with a single vendor.<\/p>\n

It also allows developers to test individual UI components to get the fast feedback in the beginning stages of the development lifecycle.<\/p>\n

For most organisations with a large online presence, the visual accuracy of their application has a significant impact on how customers interact with their business. With solution for both end-to-end visual testing as well as front-end visual component testing, screener allows user to:<\/p>\n

– Build and run their own visual tests.<\/p>\n

– Automate test flows in minutes<\/p>\n

– Use DOM snapshots to identify the differences in an app by looking at both visual and programmatic data<\/p>\n

– Ignore areas based on element identification<\/p>\n

– Store baselines and seamlessly manage entire test lifecycle in the cloud<\/p>\n

Sauce Headless<\/h3>\n

At the same time, the company also announced that it has released Sauce Headless, an offering that provides cloud-based headless browser testing on containers to facilitate fast and affordable early pipeline testing.<\/p>\n

It leverages Chrome and Fox browsers on Linux in a container-based infrastructure so development can detect any issues early and keep the pipeline moving by testing on every commit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
