Building software is not enough. Ensuring that it is compatible with the user environment is of utmost importance. The user should be able to perform the intended function without any hassle, which otherwise would lead to failure of the system and loss of revenue. Also, it is essential to make sure that the developed application is equipped with the intended functionalities across various environments that may be required by the user. At Precise Testing Solution, we verify whether your application is compatible with different hardware, operating systems, and network environments.
In the current times, due to the increased use of mobile phones, apart from testing the application across different desktop configurations, the compatibility of the app needs to be checked across mobile operating systems as well. Compatibility testing, therefore, involves desktop browser compatibility testing and mobile app testing.

Compatibility testing is done to assess the compatibility of the application with the computing environment which may contain some or all of the below-mentioned elements:-
Hardware Platform Compatibility – The compatibility of the application is verified against various hardware configurations. Operating Systems- The application compatibility with various operating systems like MVS, UNIX, Windows, etc. is verified. In the case of mobile app compatibility testing, it is checked whether the app works fine in both iOS and Android.
Database Compatibility – Assessment of whether the application is working fine across various databases like Oracle, Sybase, DB2, etc., is done.
Browsers Compatibility – The application is checked for compatibility in different browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Netscape, Internet Explorer, Safari, etc. The compatibility is also checked against various versions of the browsers.
Devices Compatibility – The software compatibility with various devices like the USB port, scanners, printers, BlueTooth, and other media devices is verified.
Network Compatibility– The performance of the system concerning parameters like bandwidth, capacity, operating speed, etc. is verified.
Other System Software – The compatibility of the application with system software like Web servers, messaging tools, etc. is checked.
The development and simultaneous testing of the application are initially done in one browser. The user however may prefer to use another browser while using the application. The browser use also depends on its availability on a particular device that the user is having access to. We at Precise Testing Solution offer browser compatibility testing, where the application is tested on various browsers and their different versions, to ensure that the application is compatible with each one of them.
Through browser compatibility testing we verify that the site performance and functionality are as expected, across different web browsers. We also ensure that the application provides the same visual experience to the user in all the browsers and their versions.
New browsers are constantly being developed, and we keep a track of them. We are watchful of the browser trends and make sure we mandatorily test the more popular browsers.
The world has moved on from landlines to handy phones. Mobile phones are no longer mere devices of communication but are smartphones that behave just like mini-computers that can handle almost every task that a computer can do.
Due to ease of use, people are now preferring to access the applications through smartphones rather than the desktop. The smartphones, therefore, call for the integration of more and more functionalities and features on them. Desktop applications now have their corresponding mobile app. These applications need to behave in a way that they can be easily operated by the users. For best performance therefore the apps need to be optimized.
We at Precise Testing Solution have the expertise, tools, and experience to test mobile applications to verify if the app is compatible with the mobile configurations. Our expert team makes sure that the most-in-use manufacturer’s devices are mandatorily checked by us for compatibility. We also ensure that the app runs on both iOS and Android operating systems. We check for all major permutations involving the devices in trend, operating systems, etc., and aim at making the experience best for the user.
Precise Testing Solution offers automation procedures for cross-browser automation techniques. We use an automated method, to expedite the testing procedure where we automate the compatibility tests through available automated tools. We automate testing across various browser and platform combinations which if done manually may prove tedious.
We achieve cross-browser automation testing in two ways –
We test the desktop application and mobile app on real devices and check the real-time application consistency on different platforms.
2. Through Virtual Devices
We test the application through emulator, simulator, or cloud solutions.
