Browsers Lab Road Map and the Alpha Version of the Platform to Know About

You know you can always rely on the famous Browsers Lab when it comes to testing software for its development. It is one reliable platform with versatile, quick, and easy work to offer. That being said, the platform is still work in progress. It should take quite some time before the official release of the platform. There is plan to it though. So, for better understanding of it, let’s just have this Browsers Lab Road discussed in this opportunity and talk its Alpha version through then. Now, let’s see below.

The Start and Finish of the Initial Phase

Before the first plan in January 2018 started, there were actually two phases happening before. The first is none other than the start of the platform development. It was happening back in August 2017 where the platform is resulted from collaborative effort of the Browsers Lab team members to streamline the automation process. Then, the idea is put to action and the initial phase of the development is started. It was around December 2017 that the phase was completed. Of course, the internal members are sure to test it too.

The Creation of the Browsers Lab Token

Since the platform will be offering products and services to its clients, there will be transaction happening on the platform without doubt. Thus, certain crypto currency will be needed to make the most of Browsers Lab’s products and services. With that, Browsers Lab Token was created back in January 2018 by leveraging the blockchain technology. This technology comes from the Ethereum-based blockchain platform. With the existence of the platform, clients will have the means to use both Browsers Lab products and services.

The Release of the Alpha Version of BL

It was around February 2018 that the platform has its Alpha version released. This very version is mean to be one that can give us both the look and the feel of Browsers Lab platform. With it, they make sure that the clients are capable of doing things, from simply viewing the very platform to witnessing its development. This is pretty helpful version coming from the platform, indeed. Not to mention, from this we know that the platform works in transparency. Not all platforms can be this open to its clients. So, this is plus point.

The Start of the Pre-Sale of BAL Token

Around March 2018, the platform will begin the pre-sale of their Browsers Lab token. This phase would be the best chance for the early investors to get their hands on the tokens to trade in for Browsers Lab products and services later. During this phase too, the platform will spend the time to fix and enhance more in its alpha stage. They know that the platform needs to keep developing so that its quality is improved and can benefit its clients in the end. Browsers Lab is sure to have this very schedule here included in their plan.

The Release of Browsers Lab Beta Version

The next thing set to be released by the platform would be none other than its Beta version, now that the Alpha has already made its appearance. The release of this new version will be around April 2018. Around this time too, the crowdsale will begin. You see it now that the platform develops from time to time. Surely, the end result should be satisfying later. Of course, this is not the end of the Browsers Lab road map. There are still more to go this year and possible plans next year in the schedule. They won’t stop only right here.

The Fix and Enhancement of Beta Version

Just because the Beta version goes for sale, it does not mean that the platform will stop monitor how it goes. In fact, people are allowed and actually recommended to report all the bugs they might have found during the beta phase. By reporting them, Browsers Lab will know what they have to do to make the Beta version better. All the bugs will be fixed and the code will be enhanced. This plan is scheduled to be done around May 2018. For those who reported the bugs, the platform will give rewards. So, consider doing this yourself.

The Official Launch of This Browsers Lab

Now that the Alpha and Beta versions have been successfully released, soon it would be the time for the official launch of the Browsers Lab. Once the crowdsale has been officially completed, the launch will happen right away. It would be around June 2018. Visit https://twitter.com/BrowsersLab for up to date information about it once the time draws close. The launch of this platform is worth waiting for. For all software developers, it should be more than helpful to help you testing your software for its development before its launch time.

The Test Integration and Mobile Platform

After the official launch, there are some plans scheduled in the road map. At the very least, there are still two plans in 2018. First, it would be the API Test Integration. As clear as how it sounds, it will be the time when the platform introduces the ability to test the APIs. Second, Browsers Lab will create mobile apps of it and have this mobile platform launched sometime around the same year. This launch will be the last of the plan for the year. But, there are plans to follow in the following year. There might still be more in the future.

The Integrations to Be Done in the Future

There is still no clear information yet about the plans in the following year. However, roughly, there is more integration planned to be done in 2019. First, there is Platform Payment Integration where it will be made possible for clients to pay their employees and freelancers with tokens. Second, there is Mobile Automation Integration where some tests will be applied on Android ad iOS devices. There are more to follow as the team continues to both innovate and provide more and more ways to do the test. BL does have a long schedule.

4 Parts of the Alpha Version of Browsers Lab Platform

Now that you have learnt the platform’s road map and what the team plans to do in each schedule, let’s just take a look at the Alpha version of the platform. This version has just made its release some time ago. Wouldn’t it be interesting if we preview it here? This version is pretty much simple to understand, actually. There are only 4 main parts of the version you will need to pay attention to if you want to learn about it. Now, let’s just see and discuss what those parts could be in this chance.

The Dashboard of the Alpha Version

First, there is the Dashboard. From this very page of the version, clients will be able to see the analytics and test history of the last 7 days. This is what the dashboard is mainly all about. In the last 7 days summary, certain chart will be shown with passed, skipped, and failed information, while the tests history will show the very history of your collections. Below it, clients will be provided with organization calendar of the year along with the to-do list next to it for all the team members to see.

The Tests of the Alpha Version of BL

Next, you will have the Tests part. Here, clients will have the tests structure displayed entirely. Browsers Lab makes it possible for the users to create their own automation test scripts as well. Then, they would be allowed to add them to the run list and choose different browsers to use. Any browsers will do, be it Chrome or Firefox. You can always make your own choice for it and see if one fits your needs more than the others. That is why this platform is versatile one to begin with after all.

The Results of the BL Alpha Version

Then, there is the Results part too. From here, we will see a list of results of every user. The name will be displayed along with the information when the user exactly starts the test. Furthermore, this Results page also shows in detail how many times the user passes, fails, and skips the test. You will see how long the completion time as well. Not to mention, users will get the chance to see the screenshots of every test step run by other users. We get pretty much detail to learn here, indeed.

The Analytics of the BL Alpha Version

The last main part of the version is the Analytics. Here, you will be able to see the charts of the test more than what you can see from the Dashboard earlier. This time, the last 14 days summary is what you will get from this version of the platform. Along with the summary, there will be the execution rates, showing the successes and the failures within those last 14 days. Then, below the summary and execution rates, you will get the test breakdown by individual dates with executions to see too.
