BrowserStack Launches All-in-One Website Scanner
In an exciting development for web developers and QA teams, BrowserStack, the leading platform for software testing, has unveiled its latest product: the Website Scanner. This innovative no-code solution allows teams to perform extensive health checks on their websites in mere minutes. Gone are the days when manual testing was the only option; now, BrowserStack simplifies the process, making it faster and more reliable.
Modern websites can be incredibly complex, often comprising thousands of pages that continuously evolve. Manually testing these pages can be not only slow but also an unreliable practice. Teams regularly encounter issues related to site speed, accessibility, broken links, missing images, layout inconsistencies, and responsive design. Many teams also lack the time to develop and maintain their test automation frameworks, which adds to the challenge of keeping web properties in top shape.
Streamlined Testing Process
With the Website Scanner, all these issues can be detected in a single scan. According to Ritesh Arora, co-founder and CEO of BrowserStack, “Instead of juggling multiple tools or conducting manual reviews, teams can get immediate results without any code or extensive setup.”
The Website Scanner allows teams to start testing effortlessly by entering website URLs, uploading sitemaps, or utilizing the integrated crawler. Once the scan is complete, teams receive a consolidated report detailing all issues found, including website speed, accessibility, broken links, missing images, layout problems, and more.
One of the standout features is the capability to schedule recurring scans across thousands of pages in various environments—be it production, development, or staging. This proactive approach helps identify bugs before they go live, saving time and resources while ensuring a superior user experience.
Benefits for Teams
The Website Scanner empowers teams across QA, development, design, and marketing to enhance test coverage rapidly, even without automation expertise. This leads to fewer defects on websites, better SEO performance, increased usability, and quicker release cycles. As Adam Stoddard, a designer at Basecamp, puts it, “Now it takes us mere minutes to ensure that a release hasn’t introduced any visual regressions. It allows me to publish releases faster, with more confidence that I haven’t broken anything.”
Future Enhancements
Looking ahead, BrowserStack plans to continuously enhance the Website Scanner, evolving it into the most comprehensive no-code web quality tool on the market. Future updates are expected to cover additional areas such as security and SEO, thereby broadening the tool’s capabilities.
The Website Scanner is now available for use at
