QA Wolf Full Service pairs your team with a dedicated QA engineering team that builds, runs, and maintains your automated test suite. If you’re evaluating QA Wolf, book a demo to talk through your coverage goals.

Onboarding

Onboarding with QA Wolf is easy, but a few things need to be set up before we can begin developing a Test Plan and building your automated test suite.

Timeline

1 to 2 weeks after contract start if all blockers are cleared.

Onboarding to-dos

1
Connect your Slack, Teams, or Discord account with QA Wolf.
2
Send test environment credentials to your Account Executive, QA Engineering Lead, or Customer Success Manager. The environment needs to be stable and reachable before onboarding can begin.
3
Identify a Champion (day-to-day) point of contact for QA Wolf who can clear blockers and make decisions about your test suite.

Implementation

Once we understand your application and testing priorities, we’re ready to start outlining a Test Plan and coding up your automated test suite.

Timeline

  • Planning phase: 2 to 4 weeks after the contract start date if all blockers are cleared.
  • Test creation phase: The next 2 to 3 months after the Test Plan is approved.

Test planning to-dos

  1. Send over any existing test plans or internal priority lists. Anything you have is great: Google Sheets, a TestRail matrix, or just a list of priority features. If you don’t have anything, don’t worry — we’ll work with you to determine priorities and coverage areas.
  2. Export and send your existing E2E tests — if you have any. We can convert that code to QA Wolf outlines and test code, or avoid covered product areas if you plan to continue running and maintaining them internally.
