Team augmentation

Dedicated QA Team

QA engineers who become part of your team: same tools, same sprints, same goals, without the hiring overhead.

Inside your sprint

What your QA engineers do, and when

They work in your Jira, Slack, repository and CI, and join your ceremonies like anyone else on the team.

Planning
Test plan for every story

We review acceptance criteria and flag risks before code is written.
Daily
Stand-up and new builds

Fresh builds are tested the same day, and bugs go straight into your Jira.
Mid-sprint
Automation of done stories

Stable flows become automated tests in your repository and CI.
Release
Regression and sign-off

A full regression run and a clear go or no-go for the release.
Retro
Quality in numbers

Escaped bugs, coverage and test run time, so you see the trend.

Team shape

Fits when: Weekly releases and a regression that takes too long by hand.

Manual QA engineerFunctional, regression and exploratory testing of every build.
Automation engineer (SDET)UI and API tests in your language, wired into CI.
QA leadStrategy, metrics and reporting; keeps the team on track.

Examples only. We agree the real mix on the first call, and you can change it as the product grows.

Flexible size

Add engineers a few weeks before a big launch, keep the core team between releases. The people who know your product stay with it.
