Industry: E-commerce
E-commerce QA services, proven on release-critical and marketplace platforms
We've cut regression time from 4 days to 40 minutes on a fast-releasing retail platform, and scaled a global media marketplace's automated suite from 80 tests to 2,700 — automation wired into CI/CD, with API contract testing and audits behind the releases.

What we found
Patterns from two e-commerce engagements
-
Manual regression that outran the release cycle
Releases went out every two weeks, but manual regression testing alone took 4–5 days each cycle — and bugs still slipped into production. Every deployment was “a source of anxiety rather than progress.” We built a Playwright suite wired into GitHub Actions that runs a full regression on every pull request automatically.
-
80 tests, an hour each run, and no way to know what they covered
The suite stood at roughly 80 end-to-end tests, taking over an hour to run, with no structured test documentation behind it — no way to assess real coverage or find the gaps. We grew that to 2,700 automated tests at 90% coverage, with full regression now running in 2 hours.
-
A marketplace with zero margin for error on either side
This marketplace sold stock video, music, and 3D assets to buyers and sellers worldwide — a platform where, as the case study puts it, “licensing compliance, content integrity, and financial transaction accuracy all had to work correctly for both buyers and sellers.” A specialised testing strategy was needed, not just more tests.
-
Backend problems that only surfaced on the frontend
Nothing tested the API layer on its own, so backend issues only showed up once they broke something a customer could see. We added API contract testing with Postman and Newman — catching backend problems before they ever reach the frontend.
Where to start
The services these two engagements actually used
Automation testing and API testing ran on both e-commerce engagements below. Manual testing and a QA audit rounded out the marketplace engagement's wider scope.
Automation Testing
Scalable test suites that run on every commit, giving your team instant confidence on every build.
Used on both e-commerce engagements
API Testing
Full coverage of your endpoints, contracts, and integrations — before they break in production.
Used on both e-commerce engagements
Manual Testing
Human-led testing that catches what automation misses — UX issues, edge cases, and real-world flows.
Used on one of the two e-commerce engagements
QA Audit
A complete health check of your quality processes, tooling, and team — with a clear action plan.
