Running TC scripts on multiple browsers without locally installing browsers.

Hi All,   Could you please let me know the procedure for Running test complete scripts on multiple browsers[i.e. IE 9,10,11] without installing them locally.   Is there any way to do this task.  ...

Hi,

 

Thank you for the suggested approach. Is this function doing its stuff via IE's user interface or IE provides some automation that can be used instead of UI?

This is through IEs user interface. I have a function without arguments 'IE_switch' that keeps track of a ProjectSuite variable registring how many times IE has run and does nothing first time, runs IE10 emulation second, IE9 emulation third. This uses a function with emulation settings as parameters, which do the work through IEs user interface: opens the dev tools and then the emulation tab, drags it larger, interacts with the drop downs and resizes it to small again. Some of this work can be done with keyboard shortcuts. I also in some tests use this second function 'directly' to test against IE8.
