Can I run Appium tests from Cloud-based mobile application test service provider? - browserstack

I am super confused about the cloud-based mobile application test providers. Do they only provide mobile devices that I can provision? It appears after provisioning we have to run tests manually.
Or they also provide the functionality to run tests on those mobile devices. For example, my tests are written in Robot Framework and Appium. Can I run those tests in the Cloud-based mobile application test service provider like AWS Device Farm, Kobiton, or Sauce Labs?

You can use BrowserStack to run your test on. You might want to refer the below links for more details on how to run it.

Need a BrowserStack equivalent that supports Electron apps

At my previous job, we used BrowserStack to run our regularly-scheduled automated tests for web browsers and native mobile apps. At my current job, we need that same sort of functionality for our Electron desktop app which BrowserStack sadly does not support. It is important to note that we are still using Selenium rather than WinAppDriver as it is an Electron app. Can anybody please point me to a suitable service that supports this?

Can I run cloud-based native mobile app testing from cloud?

I wrote tests in Robot Framework with Appium. I test the same app on both Android and iOS.
I want to find out a cloud-based native mobile app testing vendor where (a) I can test the app on various mobile devices and (b) I could also run the tests in the cloud.
I am looking into perfecto, Kobiton and HeadSpin, which seem only to provide access to devices. Are there vendors that allow running tests in the cloud as well?
With BrowserStack you get to run your tests on 100% real mobile devices on our infrastructure via cloud.
While I cannot say about the others names mentioned, but with BrowserStack you can easily get access to 3000+ real devices which will help you to ensure your application is tested on a variety of different specification devices of various screen sizes and from different vendors.
With BrowserStack's devices you can easily switch between OS versions and other device specifications in a jiffy.

Can we run/test desktop applications on browserStack?

Can anyone let me know whether we will be able to run/test desktop applications on BrowserStack?
I'm exploring options to test one of the desktop applications on multiple operating systems and devices.
BrowserStack currently does not support testing of Desktop Applications. It only supports browser based testing and mobile application testing (iOS/Android)

What is the basic organization of web test(regression, speed, validation, etc.)?

I'm newbie in QA (testing)
I want to understand basic category or area of web test.
About this, I found a web site.

=============================================
Organization of Web Test Tools Listing - this tools listing has been loosely organized into the following categories:
Load and Performance Test Tools
Page Speed Testing Tools
Mobile Web/App Testing Tools
Link Checkers
HTML Validators
Web Accessibility Testing Tools
Web Services Test Tools
Cross-Browser Testing Tools/Services
Web Functional/Regression Test Tools
Web Site Security Test Tools
External Site Monitoring Services
Web Site Management Tools
Log Analysis Tools
I might think these are web site test area but it is not MECE.
Please give me more advice.
These tools are sufficient to test all areas as for MECE you have to write test cases and check. These are depends on functionality not on Tools.
With add on this:
There are different websites which provide mobiles online to test application some are free and some have premium accounts
pCloudy
bitbar
Experitest etc..
For automation you have to use tools like:
Appium for Android and IOS
Robotium for Android
MonkeyTalk
Selendroid for Android
