Running it continuously turns rendering into a trend, which is what catches a change that degraded one viewport.<\/p>\n<h3>Which viewports should I schedule?<\/h3>\n<p>The ones your analytics actually show. A generic device list spends effort on screens nobody uses and misses the one most of your visitors have.<\/p>\n<h3>Do I need to review every run?<\/h3>\n<p>No, and you will not. Alert on regression instead, so the runs work in the background and only ask for attention when something changed.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/pn-faq --><!-- pn-related-reading --><\/p>\n<h2>Related reading<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/loadfocus.com\/blog\/2016\/07\/how-to-test-your-websites-in-smartphone-tablet-mobile-emulators\">Test Your Website in Mobile and Tablet Emulators<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/loadfocus.com\/blog\/2026\/07\/scheduled-load-tests\">Schedule Load Tests and Get Alerted on Breaks<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/loadfocus.com\/blog\/2014\/07\/schedule-load-tests-for-apis-in-the-cloud-with-loadfocus-com\">Schedule Load Tests for APIs in the Cloud with LoadFocus.com<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\"><\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 2<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minutes read<\/span><\/span>Key takeaways Continuous mobile emulation turns a one-off check into a trend you can act on.
