EMULATORS & SIMULATORS

Accelerate mobile testing with the latest emulators and simulators

Test visual aspects across different browsers and resolutions

Real device testing vs. emulators and simulators.

Catching issues early costs a fraction of catching them in production, but not all early-stage testing is equal. Sauce Labs' scalable, always-available Android emulators and iOS simulators give your team a fast, cost-effective way to validate code in the earliest stages of development, before you've committed to a build. Emulators can't replicate device sensors, biometrics, camera input, or real network conditions, so pair them with Real Device Cloud for full-cycle coverage from first commit to release.

Scale testing coverage

Emulators and simulators are easy to scale, making them ideally suited for Continuous Integration pipelines.

Increase speed and quality

Reduce build times and iterate more frequently on mobile apps or websites. Shift mobile testing left to find bugs earlier and improve the quality of your application.

Reduce testing costs

Run functional tests on emulators and simulators for a fraction of the cost of real devices. Add real devices at the end of the dev cycle when you need to test real-world conditions.

What our customers are saying

Hear why developers and testers love Sauce Mobile

Working with Sauce Labs proved to be very satisfying. Not only the team helped us to find a great testing solution that would meet our requirements, but also worked closely with us to accelerate our agile testing processes.

EMULATORS, SIMULATORS, AND REAL DEVICES

Better together

Running emulators and simulators alongside real devices gives you fast feedback early in the cycle and high-confidence coverage before release — without the cost or wait time of relying on real hardware alone.

Sauce Labs is the only platform that gives your team instant, always-available access to both: thousands of the latest Android emulators and iOS simulators, plus a real device cloud with 10,000+ devices. One platform with full-lifecycle coverage.
