You can run your existing ACCELQ tests across thousands of real-world environments using your own subscriptions—no code or migration needed.

Mobile Emulation and Real Device Testing

Responsive UI and Viewport Emulation

Emulate device screen sizes to verify responsive layouts directly within desktop browsers. ACCELQ supports:

• Pre-configured device profiles (e.g., iPhone, iPad, Galaxy)

• Custom screen resolutions and orientations

• Use within CI pipelines for early responsive validation

Real Mobile Device Testing

Execute web tests on physical Android and iOS devices via integrated cloud providers. This ensures:

• Realistic touch interactions

• Device-specific rendering

• Authentic end-user validation

This is especially useful for testing apps in real mobile network and system conditions.

Responsive Design Verification

ACCELQ makes it easy to validate UI adaptability using device emulation and screen resizing tools—all accessible within your no-code test flows. This ensures:

• Proper layout rendering

• Consistent behavior across breakpoints

• Compatibility with mobile-first designs

Multi-Session Testing (Concurrent Browsers)

ACCELQ supports multiple concurrent browser sessions within a single test case. Easily automate:

• Multi-user flows (e.g., Admin/User interactions)

• Real-time systems like chats or collaborative apps

• Cross-tab workflows or pop-up handling

With intuitive context-switching, these complex flows remain codeless and maintainable.

WebDriver Profile Customization

ACCELQ offers advanced customization of browser startup behaviors using WebDriver profiles:

• Headless Mode for faster CI execution

• Incognito/Private Mode to avoid cache/session interference

• Custom launch arguments like security settings or experimental flags

These configurations allow developers and QA engineers to tailor the test environment precisely.
