With the latest version of Perfecto, automation testing is supported on the device platforms listed in this section.

Important: Based on the EOL policy, Perfecto no longer supports older versions of the Mobile OS. For details, see Suspension of support policy - mobile device OS.

Perfecto supports iOS versions 9 to 13.2.2 as well as 13.3 Beta 2. For details about support limitations, see iOS Support Updates.

Perfecto supports Android versions 4.1 to 10. For details about Android 10 support limitations, see Android Support Updates.

In addition to a large set of mobile and wearable devices, the Perfecto Continuous Quality Lab provides a set of desktop-web environments for testing web applications. The web environments are characterized by:

  • Operating system, such as Windows 8.1 or MacOS Sierra
  • Browser version, such as Chrome v62, Firefox v58, or Safari v10
  • Screen resolution to support testing responsive web applications
  • Browser location setting, either US East, AP Sydney, or EU Frankfurt

The web device is presented to the test script as a virtual machine, hosted by the Perfecto CQ Lab. Normal initialization for the latest version combinations of the VM is approximately 7-10 seconds.


Use the browserVersion capability to select the version of the browser to configure in your desktop web device.

  • IE and Edge browsers are configured to disable the popup blocker.
  • Edge beta is supported for interactive sessions only.
  • Some Windows versions run on Windows Server, as listed above.

Due to Microsoft licensing issues, its Microsoft Server counterpart is supplied when you request a desktop edition. This does not affect the view or the input needed in the capabilities, but it entails usage of slightly different libraries.
