Industry: SaaS
SaaS QA services, proven on a payment platform and a global marketplace
We've built QA from zero for a SEPA/SWIFT/FX payment platform serving payment institutions across Europe, and scaled a global microstock marketplace's automated suite from 80 tests to 2,700 — audit first, then automation wired into CI/CD.

What we found
Patterns from two SaaS engagements
-
QA that did not grow with the product
The payment platform was tested sporadically by its Product Owner — manually, on demand, with no documentation and no automation. As it began serving fintech companies and payment institutions across Europe, that became “a serious risk.” The marketplace had QA, but it wasn’t scaling.
-
A slow suite with no map of what it covered
The marketplace started with roughly 80 end-to-end tests that took over an hour to run, and no structured test documentation to show real coverage. We grew it to 2,700 automated tests at 90% coverage, with full regression in 2 hours — enough for twice-weekly releases.
-
Integrations and APIs carry the real risk
The payment platform’s SEPA, SWIFT, and FX integrations were covered with API testing in Postman and Mailsac. On the marketplace we added contract testing and API response validation, catching data inconsistencies at the source instead of in the UI.
-
Defects found after release cost the most
On the payment platform, 85% of defects were detected before development completed and 100+ critical defects were resolved before release. On the marketplace, 835 defects were identified and fixed before production.
Where to start
The services these two engagements actually used
Manual testing, automation testing, API testing, and QA audits ran on both SaaS engagements below — each one opened with an audit of the existing state before the build-out began.
Manual Testing
Human-led testing that catches what automation misses — UX issues, edge cases, and real-world flows.
Used on both SaaS engagements
Automation Testing
Scalable test suites that run on every commit, giving your team instant confidence on every build.
Used on both SaaS engagements
API Testing
Full coverage of your endpoints, contracts, and integrations — before they break in production.
Used on both SaaS engagements
QA Audit
A complete health check of your quality processes, tooling, and team — with a clear action plan.
