Browserling FAQ

Can I test a website running on localhost or a local server?

Do I need to install Flash, Java, or plugins?
No. The service is powered by HTML5 and JavaScript and requires no installation.
What happens to files transferred during a sandbox session?
Files can be moved in and out by drag and drop or tools like curl, and all files are wiped when the session ends.
