Aerokube Moon vs IE NetRenderer

Aerokube Moon runs browser automation sessions inside a customer-managed Kubernetes or OpenShift cluster. It supports Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, and Puppeteer, with Selenium compatibility based on the W3C WebDriver specification and standard capabilities. Browser capacity depends on the cluster, while the license sets concurrent sessions. Without a license key, Moon allows up to four parallel browser sessions for unlimited use. A paid license costs $5 a month for each parallel session, scaling with the number of concurrent sessions. Aerokube recommends Helm installation. The interface lists and filters running sessions, displays browser screens, and launches sessions for manual testing. Optional features include video recording, mobile emulation, clipboard access, file transfer, and developer tools. Moon can capture network activity as HAR and upload it to S3 when configured. It exposes Prometheus metrics, including running sessions and session limits. Moon 2.x has no built-in authentication by default; ingress authentication or sidecars are described.

IE NetRenderer is a free web service and extension for checking how pages render in Internet Explorer 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6 and 5.5. It runs capture jobs in parallel and in real time, using a separate virtual Windows environment for each browser version. Mixed Overlay and Difference Mode compare screenshots between versions. Screenshots remain at their original size, with a ruler showing usable widths for 800x600 and 1024x768 displays. You can set a vertical pixel offset to capture a lower page section and optionally allow extra loading time for scripts and page objects. Java and ActiveX are blocked, while JavaScript is enabled. The Firefox extension sends the current page from browser menus or toolbar icons. The maker says images and URLs are private, images are deleted after viewing, and visited sites do not receive identifying browser details. The rendering server is in Germany.
