Browser Test­ing with Xenocode

One of the tough­est things about devel­op­ing a web­site on a Mac is cross browser test­ing. Luck­ily, a com­pany called Xenocode has released an inter­est­ing browser based solu­tion that works bet­ter than any other method I have seen.

Check it out here

With Xenocode’s Browser Plu­gin you can load:

1. Inter­net Explorer 8
2. Inter­net Explorer 7
3. Inter­net Explorer 6
4. Fire­fox 3
5. Fire­fox 2
6. Safari
7. Google Chrome
8. Opera

It requires the instal­la­tion of a *.exe file, which in my opin­ion is a lit­tle unset­tling. Since I’m using VMware to run a copy of Win­dows XP on my Mac I’m not too wor­ried; I barely use Windows.

So far I have had no prob­lems, and I absolutely love the con­ve­nience of it.
