Add QA capacity without another hire.
Scaling teams don't always need a full-time QA engineer — they need coverage. A Full QA Audit when it matters, an Automation Starter for lasting regression coverage. Fixed price, fixed timeline.
Where I actually help
Your engineers test their own code
That's fine for unit tests, dangerous for release readiness. I plug in as an independent second pair of eyes.
Regression testing is manual and slow
I build Playwright / Appium suites tailored to your product, wired into your CI. What used to take a day runs in 15 minutes.
You need a full-time QA but not the headcount
Full QA Audit ($900) gives you point-in-time coverage; Automation Starter ($1,500) gives you ongoing regression coverage — zero payroll overhead.
You want production incident post-mortems that lead somewhere
I run root-cause analysis on production bugs and turn them into automated regression tests so the same class of issue never returns.
Fixed price, fixed timeline.

- Offline, bg/foreground, deep links, push
- Appium smoke suite (~5 tests)
- App Store / Play Store compliance pre-check
E-commerce Launch QA
Pre-launch end-to-end checkout + payment + inventory testing for Shopify / WooCommerce.
- Checkout flow + payment integrations
- Discount code + tax + shipping edge cases
- Mobile checkout (real device)
- Inventory + race-condition checks
AI Product QA

Three ways to get the same job done — cost, time, and flexibility.
| Testopius | In-house QA engineer | QA agency | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starting cost | $250 one-off | $8–12k/mo + hiring cost | $5–15k/mo retainer |
| Time to first result | 5 business days | 6–12 weeks to hire | 2–4 weeks onboarding |
| Commitment | None — fixed scope | Full-time contract | 3–12 month retainer |
| Fit for startup/MVP? | ✓ Ideal | Overkill for early stage | Low flexibility |
| Who owns the work | You — with handoff doc | You — but may leave | Agency (black-box risk) |

Past Work
Real projects, anonymized for confidentiality. Same quality, every time.
Encryption & Decryption Software
Desktop & Mobile · Manual + Automation
Tested a security-critical desktop and mobile application handling encryption and decryption of sensitive data. Covered functional, regression and edge-case scenarios.
Results
- Full functional test suite written from scratch
- Critical edge cases identified in decryption flow
- Regression coverage across 3 platforms
Super App — Mobile Mini Apps Platform
Mobile (iOS & Android) · Manual + Automation
Tested a super app hosting multiple mini applications within a single mobile platform. Covered manual exploratory testing and automated regression across iOS and Android for each mini app integration.
Results
- Automated regression suite built with Appium for iOS & Android
- Mini app integration issues identified across platform boundaries
- Consistent test coverage maintained across frequent releases
Digital Identity & 2FA Platform
Mobile & Desktop · Automation + Manual
Tested a secure digital identity platform used by enterprise clients across Europe. Covered SDK integration testing, two-factor authentication flows and regression across releases.
Results
- SDK test coverage built with Robot Framework
- 2FA flows validated across iOS, Android & desktop
- Zero critical bugs escaped to production during tenure
Lento Circle — Autonomous Test Framework
Web · AI Agents + Playwright / Python Automation
Built a fully autonomous test automation framework using Playwright + Python, orchestrated by MCP servers and AI agents. The system pulls test cases directly from TestLink, then agents write, execute and report on Playwright tests end-to-end — no manual scripting.
Results
- Test cases pulled automatically from TestLink into the agent pipeline
- AI agents author and run Playwright tests via MCP orchestration
- End-to-end autonomous run: zero manual scripting from spec to report

What clients say
Founders and engineering teams I've worked with recently.
“Emre's attention to detail is unmatched. He found a critical bug in our payment flow that our team had missed for weeks. Highly recommended for any startup shipping fast.”
“We hired Emre for a one-time QA audit before our seed round demo. He delivered a clear report in 3 days and even flagged issues in our onboarding UX. Worth every dollar.”
“Working with Testopius was refreshing — async, professional, and the automation setup he built for us cut our regression time from a full day to 20 minutes.”
Client names anonymized under NDA. Verified LinkedIn references shared privately on request — usually within 24 hours.
