Abstract (eng):The software testing process is one of the most important phases during software development to check that the developed software product meets its specified specifications/requirements.
This is especially true for the software products used in the health-industry.
Supported browsers can also be documented into the requirements.
Thus browser compatibility testing needs to be considered, especially while performing testing on web-based software products.
Browser compatibility testing is performed to test the software product with different kinds of combinations, including browser types and their different versions.
This ensures that developed web-based products are working properly with these different combinations during the software development process before releasing to market.

The problem with browser compatibility testing is that it is not easy to perform tests on all possible and supported browser combinations manually, without using any tools.
The goal of this study is to evaluate available browser compatibility tools and use the chosen tool during the software development process to get rapid feedback about the developed product, by performing browser compatibility test cases automatically.
Test cases need to be automated to get the benefits of the tools.

The results of the study after the evaluation and usage of the selected tool was comprehensive enough to fix the problems during the software development process.
