QA & Testing

QA that catches bugs before your customers do.

We build automated test suites that run on every pull request — unit, integration, end-to-end — plus the performance and security checks most teams skip until something breaks in public.

What's included

What you actually get

End-to-end test suites

Playwright suites covering your critical user journeys — signup, checkout, the flows that make you money — running in CI on every pull request.

Unit & integration testing

Test coverage focused on the logic that breaks expensively: payments, permissions, data mutations. We target risk, not a vanity coverage percentage.

CI quality gates

Tests wired into your pipeline so broken code cannot merge. Flaky tests get fixed or deleted — a suite nobody trusts is worse than none.

Performance testing

Load tests and Core Web Vitals audits that tell you where the system bends before your launch day traffic finds out for you.

Security audits

OWASP-focused review of auth, injection surfaces, exposed secrets, and dependency vulnerabilities — with a prioritized remediation list.

Release checklists & QA process

A written QA process your team can run without us: what gets tested, when, by whom, and what blocks a release.

How we work

Scope, build, ship, run.

The same four phases every MCQuare engagement follows. You always know which one you're in.

01

Scope

A real conversation about what you are building and what is actually hard. You leave with a written scope — what we will build, what we will not, and why.

02

Build

Weekly deploys from week one. You see the thing taking shape, not a project board.

03

Ship

Deployed to your infrastructure or ours, with monitoring, alerts, and a runbook included in the deliverable.

04

Run

We keep the lights on for as long as you want us to — or hand over cleanly and get out of the way.

FAQ

Common questions

We have no tests at all. Where do we start?

With the flows that make or lose you money: signup, checkout, and your core product loop. A first suite covering critical paths typically lands in two to three weeks and starts catching regressions immediately. Coverage expands from there by risk.

Can you work with our existing development team?

Yes — that is the usual arrangement. We build the suite, wire it into your CI, and train your developers to write and maintain tests as part of their normal workflow. The goal is a team that does not need us.

Automated tests or manual QA?

Both, in the right ratio. Automation handles regression — the same checks run thousands of times for free. Manual exploratory testing finds the weird stuff automation misses. We set up the automation and define where human testing actually adds value.

How do you handle flaky tests?

Ruthlessly. A flaky test gets quarantined, diagnosed, and either fixed properly or deleted. Teams learn to ignore suites that cry wolf, and an ignored suite provides zero protection while still costing CI minutes.
