Firebase Test Lab

The mobile platform has evolved rapidly in the last decade, and it will continue to do so. Every year advancement in software and hardware results in so many different form factors and nuances and this causes problems when building a unified fragmented software. Also, developers are writing applications that are hardware intensive, so developers will not be able to test their application in all of the hardware. Firebase Test Lab is a cloud-based application testing service and it offers several features to test your application with a diverse range of devices and software configuration. Firebase Test Lab allows testing in Android and iOS applications seamlessly. Suppose we are writing a commercial application for both iOS and Android platforms, Firebase Test Lab will be a go-to solution. 

Firebase Test Lab installs the application in a real device hosted in Google data center, so you can target a specific device and run your application to figure out the issues.
