Various versions of chrome on linux - linux

I'm looking for the way to conduct cross-browser compatibility test on my ubuntu. Firefox and opera don't cause problems, but I didn't find any guide how to install older versions of chrome. Do you know how to check my code in this browser on my computer?

You can take screenshots in different versions in Browserstack. Also you can browse there using different browsers, but you will need to pay for that.

In general, there is no need to test compatibility against anything but the latest version of Chrome, since Chrome updates itself automatically. Just expect that anyone using Chrome to view your site will have the latest version.

UFT ObjectSpy unable to identify objects in chrome

I was trying to make ObjectSpy work with Chrome browser but its unable to identify objects.
Whenever trying to identify getting this: WinObject("Chrome Legacy Window").
I tried reinstalling UFT and chrome and Microfocus extension for chrome but it didn't help.
I have downloaded extension from internet and its shows the version as Micro Focus UFT Agent
2022.0.1.25. My UFT version is 14.53. I am not sure if its compatibility issue.
Please help.
UFT 14.53 is pretty old as far as supported browsers are concerned (July 2019), if possible I would suggest upgrading to the latest version (upgrades are included in the license).
Failing that you can try to remove the extension from Chrome and install the one that comes with your version of UFT (in <UFT installation dir>/Installations) although I'm not sure it will work with current versions of Chrome.

How to decide the minimum browser version my website should support?

As a front-end developer, how should I realize what is the minimum version of Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and etc that my web app should support? Should I consider all the users would use the last stable version? If not, how many older versions should be considered?
P.S. I faced this question wen I decided to use CSS grid display and my colleagues believed some users' browsers may not be updated to support this feature.

Install custom plugin on Google Ghrome Ubuntu 14.04

I've got a problem while trying to install rutoken plugin for Google Chrome v. 40.0.2214.115 (64-bit) on Ubuntu 14.04.
That's what I try:
Download plugin from http://www.rutoken.ru/support/download/rutoken-plugin/ and unpack files, so I had librtpkcs11ecp.so, npCryptoPlugin.so files.
Create a directory for plugins, in the Google Chrome's installation directory.
sudo mkdir /opt/google/chrome/plugins
Copy *.so files to the plugins directory.
Then I've restarted Chrome:
google-chrome -–enable-plugins
The problem is that when I run chrome://plugins/ there is no such plugin in a list.
It seems Java JRE is not more working on Chrome

NPAPI support by Chrome
The Java plug-in for web browsers relies on the cross platform plugin architecture NPAPI, which has long been, and currently is, supported by all major web browsers. Google announced in September 2013 plans to remove NPAPI support from Chrome by "the end of 2014", thus effectively dropping support for Silverlight, Java, Facebook Video and other similar NPAPI based plugins. Recently, Google has revised their plans and now state that they plan to completely remove NPAPI by late 2015. As it is unclear if these dates will be further extended or not, we strongly recommend Java users consider alternatives to Chrome as soon as possible. Instead, we recommend Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari as longer-term options.
I installed plugin updated but I face issue at testing time plugin not work properly in Chrome using link http://java.com/en/download/installed8.jsp?detect=jre If you got message "This plug-in is not supported" then follow following steps:
In your URL bar, enter:
chrome://flags/#enable-npapi
Click the Enable link for the Enable NPAPI configuration option.
Click the Relaunch button that now appears at the bottom of the
configuration page.
and test it again using http://java.com/en/download/installed8.jsp?detect=jre link.

LoadRunner/PC 11.52 and IE11

Our current production version is PC 11.52 patch1 and our company is going to start IE11 roll out soon. We don't have many issues with our current production version so we would like to use it. But 11.52 doesn't support IE11. Because full migration needs lots of work (we have more than 100 projects), we are investigating alternative solutions. We tested 11.52 Vugen with IE11 and it seems, that Vugen can record scripts in WinInet mode. Would it be possible to record scripts using WinInet level capture and run them using Sockets? Is there some limitations using WinInet capturing and what pitfalls this approach might bring?
I don't know about PC 11.52 but I can answer regarding LoadRunner 11.52 (VuGen 11.52) It doesn't support IE11 because in IE11 Microsoft added some API which we had to add to the LoadRunner in order for it to work. The API was officially added in version 12 but a patch exists for version 11.52. The problem is that the patch is not available for direct download so you will have to open a support case. When you open the case please describe the problem and ask the patch for defect (77102).
EDIT: If you ask the same question on the official LoadRunner support forum then the support staff will be able to attach the file directly.

css 3d not working on linux chrome

Hey i was wondering if anyone else has had problems with css 3d running on chrome on linux (specifically fedora 17). Chrome in Windows seems to handle everything fine but for some reason it won't work in Fedora. I get errors saying that my browser doesn't support 3d transforms.
Chrome/ium is probably the most popular option, so if the version you tried wasn't working, you may want to update to the very latest -- something like the Chromium Daily Builds. If even that is too buggy to work with, you might want to try a different Webkit browser for Linux.
Midori and Epiphany are two decent options. As an added bonus, I think both of these browsers will use the version of Webkit that you have installed on your system (unlike Chrome, which comes with its own version of Webkit). That means that you should be able to build Webkit from the latest nightly source release, and Midori or Epiphany will automatically use that version.
WebKit Nightly Builds
I hope that this help you.
