Parallel testing is a method of leveraging automation testing capabilities by allowing the execution of the same tests in multiple environments, real device combinations, and browser configurations at the same time. Parallel testing’s overarching goal is to reduce time and resource constraints.

With the TestGrid Automation Testing Tool, you get parallel testing which enables you to test multiple test scenarios on multiple devices simultaneously; this saves a lot of time and resources.
