QA audit · test strategy

QA audit and test strategy consulting

An independent review of how your team tests today, with a clear, prioritised plan for where to invest next: manual, automated or API testing.

Best for: Founders, CTOs and engineering leads who want an independent view before investing in QA.

The problem

You know testing could be better, but not where to start.

  • Defects keep escaping to production, and it is unclear why.
  • There is a mix of tools and tests, but no overall strategy.
  • Leadership wants to know whether to hire testers or automate.
  • Testing effort is high, but confidence at release time is low.

The approach

A clear picture of your coverage, and a plan to close the gaps.

Tessellate reviews your process, tests, tools, environments and defect history, and talks to the people involved. The result is a written assessment of strengths and gaps, plus a prioritised roadmap that fits your team size and release rhythm.
