Ask HN: Is there any website listing websites' UX compatibility per browser?
Dear reader.
Today, I've spent almost 3 hours trying to purchase a few items at IKEA online (the Spanish online store, ikea.es).
As a web developer, I find incredibly difficult to develop an end-to-end website online purchasing experience only compatible with IE11, which was the case.
Of course in order to figure that out, I needed a process of testing the same process again and again with the following list of browsers: - Chrome, Firefox and Safari latest versions for Mac OS X 10.14 and Windows 10. - Microsoft Edge on Windows 10.
None of the above worked. In some cases, an error was thrown so the payment form submission couldn't be correctly sent. In others, some data matching such as the shipping address wasn't simply accepted.
In the end, after complaining on Twitter and contacting them directly, I decided to give it a last try with IE11 and voilà!
To sum up: I would have found profoundly useful to have a website that lists if the full purchasing experience is compatible with my browser, the same that caniuse.com does with the Web APIs per browser.
Any ideas? An HTML analyzer with https://caniuse.com/ or tests with https://github.com/mojoaxel/awesome-regression-testing https://modernizr.com/ reverse
