Tags: automationtesting, cloudtesting
Published: 2023-05-04 09:31:58

As we look back at 2022, we’re proud to highlight some of the biggest milestones and achievements for LambdaTest. We’ve expanded our platform with new features and capabilities and seen tremendous growth in the number of users and organizations that adopted our solutions.

We constantly strive to help you automate and accelerate your development and testing. In this 2022 recap, we are showcasing some of the achievements that helped us in taking our vision of bringing the entire testing ecosystem under one umbrella by making automation accessible to everyone a reality.

We are excited to launch our All New LT Browser 2.0 to help unleash the power of [responsive testing](https://www.lambdatest.com/responsive-test-online). We scaled our infrastructure to cater to all the incoming users and launched a new developer and tester-centric community to facilitate knowledge exchange. This is just the beginning — stay tuned for more great things!

So without further ado, let’s dive in and see what 2022 has been about!

**_Here you will get to know what every major tester should keep in mind while [testing travel and hospitality test case](https://www.lambdatest.com/learning-hub/test-cases-for-travel-and-hospitality-app-testing?utm_source=medium&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=may04_ap&utm_term=ap&utm_content=learning_hub) applications._**

### Launched HyperExecute For Blazing Fast Test Execution

2022 has been super-exciting for the entire team at LambdaTest! You need speed and intelligence to run end-to-end automation tests, but most traditional cloud grids in the market are either slow or lacking in your required features. We launched [HyperExecute,](https://www.lambdatest.com/hyperexecute?utm_source=devto&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=may04_ap&utm_term=ap&utm_content=webpage) a first-of-its-kind product combining speed and intelligence so you can rely on it for your Selenium automation tests.

HyperExecute helps you run automation tests up to 70% faster. That’s not all; you also get access to all the existing LambdaTest features (i.e., detailed logs, Smart CI features, Network insights, Video recording, and Access to browsers & platforms on the cloud).

### Test At Scale (TAS) on Product Hunt

Considering development velocity and test intelligence as important factors while looking into the future of software testing, LambdaTest launched [Test At Scale](https://www.lambdatest.com/test-at-scale?utm_source=devto&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=may04_ap&utm_term=ap&utm_content=webpage) (TAS), an open-source test intelligence and observation platform that shortens the testing duration by up to 95% and provides faster feedback to developers. It enables developers to get early insights into flaky tests and increases their productivity to ship code frequently with confidence.

TAS provides an enterprise-grade test intelligence platform for CI/CD, DevOps teams, and QA professionals to manage a wide range of modern testing environments on-premise or in the cloud.

If you ❤️ open-source, you could also help make TAS better by contributing to the [TAS project on GitHub](https://github.com/LambdaTest/test-at-scale#contribute?utm_source=devto&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=may04_ap&utm_term=ap&utm_content=github) or joining the TAS community on Discord.

### Leverage Automation Testing on OTT Streaming Devices

One of the fastest-growing industries, OTT platforms are transforming viewers’ preferences. People love to watch, read and interact with quality content — especially video content. Whether it is sports, news, TV shows, or videos captured on smartphones, people crave digital content. The emergence of OTT platforms has already shaped the way people consume content (viewers can now enjoy their favorite shows whenever they want rather than at pre-set times). Thus, the OTT platform’s concept of viewing anything, anytime, anywhere, has hit the right chord.

With that in mind, LambdaTest has launched a **Smart TV automation testing** cloud. Now you can perform [tests on Smart TVs](https://www.lambdatest.com/test-on-smart-tv?utm_source=devto&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=may04_ap&utm_term=ap&utm_content=webpage), including [Amazon Fire TV](https://www.lambdatest.com/test-on-amazon-fire-tv?utm_source=devto&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=may04_ap&utm_term=ap&utm_content=webpage), [Roku TV](https://www.lambdatest.com/test-on-roku-tv?utm_source=devto&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=may04_ap&utm_term=ap&utm_content=webpage), and even [Apple TV](https://www.lambdatest.com/test-on-apple-tv?utm_source=devto&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=may04_ap&utm_term=ap&utm_content=webpage).

With that in mind, LambdaTest has launched a Smart TV automation testing cloud. Now you can perform tests on Smart TVs, including Amazon Fire TV, Roku TV, and even Apple TV. LambdaTest’s tested and verified Smart TVs will help you deliver a quality web experience through your OTT application.

![image](https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/720/0*Fci1Y7qzVnDPn8eY.png)

📚 Get started with OTT testing by reading our support document and following the steps to configure it on LambdaTest.
