 You can download the **LambdaTest Tunnel binary** that will help you establish a secure connection through corporate firewalls between your computer and [LambdaTest](https://www.lambdatest.com/) cloud servers for a testing locally hosted website or web-applications. You can test plain **HTML, CSS, PHP, Python** or other similar web files saved on your local system, over combinations of operating systems, browsers, and screen resolutions that are available on LambdaTest.
