Responsive Web Design is regarded as being the approach which suggests that web design and development should respond to the end-user’s behavior and environment based on their screen size, platform and orientation.

Responsiveness consists of a mix of flexible grids and layouts, images and an intelligent use of CSS media queries. When the end-user switches from their laptop over to their iPad, the website being viewed should automatically switch to accommodate that particular resolution, image size and scripting abilities.

In other words, the website should have the technology to automatically respond to the end-user’s preferences. This would eliminate the need for a different design and development phase every time a new gadget device is introduced on the market.

Along with all of the newest devices – also come varying screen resolutions, definitions and orientations. New devices with different screen resolutions are being developed every day, and each of these devices are able to handle variations in size, functionality as well as color.

With Responsiveness aimed at crafting sites to provide an optimal viewing experience, modern built web sites must now be able to support basic mobile devices that lack JavaScript. There are now many ways of validating and testing Responsive Web Designed websites, ranging from mobile site validators and mobile emulators to simultaneous testing tools.

In this article we would like to introduce our readers to several such tools by which to detect the Responsiveness of a website. Enjoy !
