Right, now for the suspenseful bit - testing!

It's my first time testing a web app for cross-browser. Last week, it took a week to test cross browser on real devices. We started this week & took just 10 mins. Pretty cool stuff. Best part, can connect my local server to cloud via tunnel, on the go.

Go to Real Time browser that helps my investigations. for almost 6 months I am using this, initially I used browserling but this is far better than that...
