QA, performance, load and API testing for SaaS and fintech.

• Risk-based test plan for your core user journeys
• Exploratory testing sessions with session notes
• Regression suites (manual checklists → automated)
• Cross-browser and mobile web checks
• Release sign-off against agreed exit criteria

Bug reports in your tracker (Jira, Linear, GitHub), regression checklist, release readiness summary.

Playwright · Cypress · Postman · BrowserStack

• p50/p95/p99 latency baseline per critical endpoint
• Front-end performance (Core Web Vitals, Lighthouse CI)
• Database and query hotspots with your APM data
• Performance budgets enforced in CI

Baseline report, ranked bottlenecks with evidence, CI thresholds.

k6 · Lighthouse CI · Grafana · OpenTelemetry

• Workload model from your real traffic patterns
• Load test at expected peak, stress test to failure
• Spike tests (sudden 4× traffic) and soak tests (4–24 h)
• Autoscaling, connection pool and queue behaviour under load
• Re-test after fixes to confirm headroom

Capacity statement (max sustained load before SLO breach), failure modes, k6 scripts in your repo.

k6 · Grafana · Prometheus · AWS/GCP/Azure

• Functional tests for every endpoint: happy path, edge cases, error handling
• Contract tests against your OpenAPI spec (schema drift, breaking changes)
• Security testing per OWASP API Top 10: BOLA, broken auth, property-level authorisation, resource consumption, SSRF
• Idempotency, rate limiting and webhook reliability

Findings mapped to OWASP categories with curl reproductions, automated API suite.

Postman/Newman · Schemathesis · Pact · Burp Suite

• Framework setup (Playwright, API, k6) with conventions your team will follow
• CI integration: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Bitbucket, Jenkins
• Flaky test triage and quarantine strategy
• Parallelisation to keep pipelines under target time
• Handover workshop and written runbook

Working pipeline, documented suite, runbook, recorded handover.

Playwright · GitHub Actions · GitLab CI · Docker

• Review of test strategy, coverage and pyramid balance
• Release process and environment review
• Interviews with engineering and product
• Readiness for audits (DORA, ISO 27001, SOC 2 evidence)
• Prioritised 90-day QA roadmap

Written audit report and roadmap, presented to your leadership team.
