Topic: System testing on Web app

Message

I have an issue on system testing a web app. In our requirement it says
that we will support on Win 95(or higher) with IE4.0 (or higher) or
Netscape 4.08 or higher. The issue is the developers seem to think that
just testing on the lowest configuration Win 95 with IE 4.0 and
Netscape 4.08 is enough. That if it works at this level it should also
work at the higher level. I'm not sure about this. What about different
OS like 98, 2000, NT or ME. And what about new browsers like IE5.0.
Does testing on the lowest ensure everything above will work? Or does
it mean 90% of it should work. There is also a time issue involved so
testing on every combination of OS and browsers type is not possible.
Has any one else come across this risk. If so what have you done?
