Recommended browser for ADF applications

Question

Hi,
We would like to know what is the recommended browser for ADF applications.
Thanks

Answer 1

Moving beyond the certified set of browsers (and contrary to dvohra21's post there are certified browsers and versions per JDev/ADF release), if you're looking to define for your employees a standard MOE with a set browser, and you want the "best" browser, then amongst the ADF certified browsers also look for the one with the fastest stats for processing JavaScript in particular (and just being fast in general).
From Oracle's perspective this is always changing, sometimes Firefox is the fastest, sometimes Chrome, then IE, we just look to support as many browsers as possible.
However at various times there is always a browser that is considered fastest in terms of processing DOM & JavaScript, and that browser should give your users a healthy boost in speed with ADF apps in general.  We don't keep those statistics, you'll need to research them for yourself.  Here's something I found by Googling "browser benchmarks", though it's a little out of date: The BIG browser benchmark (January 2013 edition) | ZDNet
Note of course that the browser cannot solve the problem of network latency or slow servers, just what happens on the PC.
So the end recommendation, do pick a certified browser & version, but do some research into which browser is currently considered the fastest too.
If this isn't for staff MOEs, rather customers, then really your goal is to support as many browsers as possible to not exclude a customer base.
