In some implementations, a computing device can test the client-side rendering capabilities of a map module running on a computing device. For example, the map module can include a test module that sends test data to a rendering module of the browser. The rendering module can render the test data into a rendering context based on the test data. The test module can compare the pixel data in the rendering context to expected pixel data to determine whether the rendering module is capable of accurately rendering an image based on the test data. If the rendering module is capable of accurately rendering the rendering context based on the test data, the map module can be configured to perform client-side rendering of images. For example, the map module can be configured to perform client-side rendering of map data based on map data received from a map server.
