Cross browser testing

October 25th, 2008 by michael

I’ve recently been building a site for Photosomething, and came across the problem of cross browser testing. How to have a copy of every version of every browser, or at least such that is reasonable and you are willing to support. At first I thought I was going to have to install a virtual machine…   Then google came up with the goods!

Enough with the chat, here’s the link: http://browsers.evolt.org/download.php?.ie/32bit/standalone/ie6eolas_nt.zip

That is IE6, as a downloadable zip. It has everything in one folder, so you don’t even install it. It just works. And as I understand the give other browsers and versions the same treatment. This is a testers dream come true, and because all of the dependent dll’s are there, these should work under WINE also.

Cool!
