Each of these channels has differing levels of support for experimental features, and therefore each has its own level of risk regarding stability. Microsoft Edge has multiple channels that you can get started testing today: Canary, Developer, and Beta. We’ll also share resources you can use to file bugs, get support, and see what’s next for the new Microsoft Edge.

In this post, we’ll share more about how you can add the new Microsoft Edge to your automated browser testing, so your customers have a great experience as they begin to upgrade. You can learn more about how the new Microsoft Edge and Bing work together to be the browser and search engine for business over on the Windows blog. And for end users, it includes new privacy-enhancing features like tracking prevention that’s on by default and a new InPrivate mode across your entire web experience, so your online searches and browsing are not attributed to you. The new Microsoft Edge is built on the Chromium engine, providing best in class compatibility with extensions and web sites, with great support for the latest rendering capabilities, modern web applications, and powerful developer tools across all supported platforms.įor Enterprise customers, the new Microsoft Edge also includes Internet Explorer mode, providing a seamless experience across internal sites and LOB apps with legacy dependencies.
