Getting Started With Selenium Automation Testing using LambdaTest

---

LambdaTest Selenium Automation Grid enables you to perform end-to-end automation tests on a secure, reliable, and scalable Selenium infrastructure. You can perform automated cross browser testing with Selenium scripts on 2000+ browsers and operating systems environments giving you higher test coverage and at significantly less built times. LambdaTest will help you evaluate how well your web application renders when accessed through a variety of different browser. You can perform automated cross browser testing of your locally hosted web pages using Lambda Tunnel. You could also run a single test across multiple browser/OS configurations, simultaneously. This post will help you to quickly get started with running your automation test scripts on LambdaTest Selenium automation grid.
