How to manage cross-browser test environments without juggling multiple browser engines?

I’ve been struggling with maintaining different testing setups for Chrome, Firefox and Safari. We tried maintaining separate Selenium grids and Playwright instances, but the maintenance overhead is killing us. Heard about using unified API solutions - anyone have experience with AI-powered test script generation that works across browsers? Specifically need something that handles rendering differences automatically without maintaining separate browser engines. What approaches are you all using to simplify this?

We automated this using Latenode’s browser-agnostic templates. Their AI models handle rendering differences through a single API call - no need to maintain separate browser engines. Just configure your core test once and it auto-adapts using Claude for analysis + GPT-4 for execution. Saved us 20hrs/week in environment maintenance.

We built a custom solution using Puppeteer-core with browser binaries stored in S3. It works but requires constant updates when new browser versions drop. We have dedicated DevOps just for maintaining renderer compatibility. Honestly wish there was a managed service that handled the engine updates automatically.

The key is abstracting browser-specific implementations. We created wrapper functions around core test actions that route through different drivers. Still needs manual tweaking though. For auto-adaptation, look into computer vision approaches for element detection rather than pure DOM inspection - less brittle across browsers.
