Guys,

I work on a testing team for a largeish IT company and we're looking into offering a web testing service incorporating numerious browsers (inc versions).

The company whose account I work on only have a few external sites where this testing would be needed, and we have live, test and dev environments.

My question is that what can we offer over and above the bog standard installing opera, IE, FF and Netscape ? Are there any free tools which can trawl a site mimicking different browsers ?

Bearing in mind that this would need to be done in a dev and test environment (not live), it needs to be able to see them. We have a license for browsercam but that just takes a screenshot as different browsers and I am not sure that it can see our dev and test environments.

Any useful info appreciated !

Ta.
