Common QA Questions
Answers to the questions development teams ask most when evaluating QA services, planning a launch, or choosing a testing approach.
What should be tested before launching a website or app? +
Before launch, test all critical user flows end-to-end, form validation, authentication, cross-browser compatibility (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge), mobile viewports, API endpoints, payment flows if applicable, performance on key pages, and basic security headers. See the full pre-launch checklist at /resources/qa-checklist-before-launch for 50+ specific items organized by category.
How do I choose the right QA agency? +
Ask for a sample bug report, ask about their QA methodology, confirm they test on real devices for mobile, check their contract terms (month-to-month is better than long lock-ins), and verify they integrate with your existing tools. Red flags include inability to show sample bug reports and claims of 100% bug-free software. See the full guide at /resources/how-to-choose-a-qa-agency.
How much does outsourced QA testing cost? +
QA agency pricing varies based on the type of testing, frequency, and team size. Pricing models include hourly rates, monthly retainers, or per-sprint engagements. The right model depends on whether you need ongoing QA support or a one-time pre-launch review. We offer month-to-month contracts — book a free call to discuss scope and pricing.
Can AI replace QA testers? +
No. AI tools can accelerate regression coverage, identify high-risk areas in a codebase, and surface coverage gaps. But they cannot evaluate UX quality, perform exploratory testing, understand business context, or replace accountability. The best QA approach combines AI-assisted tools with experienced human testers — see our AI-Powered QA service page for a detailed breakdown.
