Today we're happy to announce the launch of a new feature: [live manual testing](https://testingbot.com/features/manual-browser-testing "manual browser testing").

With this new feature you can interact with any browser in our cloud, straight from inside your own browser. Once you click a browser and operating system in our new [Manual Testing Member Area](https://testingbot.com/members/manual/new), we'll spin up a new Virtual Machine and launch the browser you picked in less than 30 seconds.

You'll be able to control the Virtual Machine from inside your browser, take screenshots, change the screen resolution and collaborate live with other co-workers.

When you start a [tunnel](https://testingbot.com/support/tunnel) on your computer, you'll be able to manually test your internal websites from inside our cloud.

Ready to get started? Head on over to our [feature page](https://testingbot.com/features/manual-browser-testing "manual browser testing") or immediately [start testing](https://testingbot.com/members/manual/new)!
