What it is

Sauce Labs provides virtual and real devices for automated and manual testing, with an emphasis on enterprise requirements: single sign-on, private device pools, detailed audit trails and test analytics that identify flaky tests and failure trends across builds. It also offers error monitoring through its Backtrace acquisition.

Best for

Enterprises with security requirements and a need for cross-build test analytics.

Where it is strong

  • Long track record and stable platform.

Where it falls short

  • Device matrix is slightly narrower than BrowserStack's.
  • The UI shows its age in places.
