Setting up a Secure Shell (SSH) connection and preparing a local development environment for testing your website can be challenging. To simplify this process, we have revamped our LambdaTest UnderPass Tunnel desktop application with some out-of-box features for local testing. This application establishes an SSH (secure shell) connection between your computer and our cloud servers. It allows you to test web applications hosted locally or privately across various browsers before they go live.
We’ve continuously collected user feedback to improve LambdaTest UnderPass Tunnel. We are thrilled to share that the latest version of the LambdaTest Tunnel application is now available, packed with new and enhanced features!
Let’s dive in!
Before jumping onto the latest features, let us recap and understand LambdaTest UnderPass Tunnel.
What is the LambdaTest UnderPass Desktop Application?
LambdaTest UnderPass Tunnel allows you to test web applications hosted on your local server on 3000+ browsers on both mobile and desktop platforms.
This is done without executing any commands from your terminal. It’s a desktop application that sets up a Secure Shell (SSH) tunnel between your operating system and our cloud servers using a graphical user interface (GUI), making the process straightforward and user-friendly.
Now, let’s look at our new features for LambdaTest UnderPass.
Multiple Tunnel Management
With the all-new LambdaTest Tunnel desktop application, users can launch and manage several tunnels simultaneously, enhancing the efficiency of testing processes. This update allows users to perform tests across various environments simultaneously. This capability is particularly beneficial for those who need to test web applications in different settings or on multiple versions of browsers and operating systems at the same time.

This allows for a more tailored testing experience that fits your specific needs.

To simplify the debugging process, the all-new LambdaTest UnderPass desktop application comes with an easy-to-use log copying mechanism.
