QA Consultancy · Startups & Scale-ups

Your startup ships fast.
Let's make sure quality keeps up.

Star IT builds the QA foundation your startup needs — strategy, automation infrastructure, documentation, and the right people to maintain it all.

Shipping without a QA safety net works — until it doesn't. By the time most startups react, technical debt is entrenched, bugs are in production, and compliance is already a problem. We help teams get ahead of that.

What We Offer

One partner. Full QA coverage.

01

QA Strategy & Audit

We assess your current state and deliver a complete QA strategy — risk matrix, compliance requirements, tooling recommendations, and a phased roadmap. The kind of document that makes stakeholders say "when can you start?"

Risk AssessmentCompliance MappingRoadmap
02

Automation Infrastructure

We design and build your test automation framework from scratch — mobile (iOS & Android), backend API, and CI/CD pipelines. Scalable, maintainable, and built to run without a large team.

QA Documentation

Test plans, bug lifecycles, Definition of Done, test case standards — built properly, not as an afterthought. Good documentation is the difference between a QA function that scales and one that collapses under pressure.

Talent & Team Advisory

Once the foundation is in place, we help you find the right one or two people to own it long-term. We define the role, advise on hiring, onboard them into the system, and provide training and mentoring — so quality doesn't leave when we do.

The Process

Three steps. One solid foundation.

01

Assess

We start by understanding your product, your tech stack, your team, and what's at risk. No assumptions — just a clear picture of where you are and what you need.

02

Build

Strategy first, then execution. Documentation, automation framework, CI/CD pipelines, and the processes your team will actually follow.

03

Hand Over

We help you hire the right person to maintain the system, transfer knowledge properly, and stay available as your product scales.

The Modern Approach

One specialist.
The output of a team.

AI-assisted tooling has changed what a single experienced QA engineer can deliver. We build automation systems where tooling handles repetitive coverage — so your startup gets senior-level quality without scaling headcount.

In practice, a two-person QA setup can maintain what traditionally required four or five. That's not a claim — it's the infrastructure we design.

How We Think

Quality is a design decision.

Quality is designed in, not tested in.

Bugs found late aren't accidents — they're a design failure. We build systems where testability is part of the architecture, not an afterthought.

Tests are the only documentation that stays true.

Specs drift. Tests don't. We write suites that define behaviour clearly and survive real-world change.

Process is often the bottleneck.

Over-engineered QA slows teams down. We design lean workflows that match how teams actually ship.

Testability is an architectural property.

Systems that are hard to test are hard to scale. We fix that at the design level.

Background

Tested across high-stakes domains.

🏦

Fintech & Payments

QA for biometric payment systems, compliance-heavy environments (PCI-DSS, FIDO, PSD2, GDPR), and mobile-first financial products. Where bugs aren't just bugs — they're liability.

🏛️

Banking

Enterprise-grade QA in regulated banking environments. Rigorous processes, strict audit trails, and zero tolerance for defects reaching production.

🛒

E-Commerce

End-to-end testing of transactional platforms — checkout flows, integrations, performance under load, and edge cases that only appear at scale.

Tools & Technologies

Tools change. Engineering judgement doesn't. We select and adapt tooling based on the problem — and pick up what we don't know fast, because that's what engineers do.

QA Launcher — generate a test framework
in 30 seconds.

Point it at any website, API, or mobile app. AI analyses it and generates a complete, ready-to-run test automation framework. You just download and run.

Web + Full Stack

Playwright + TypeScript + Cucumber

Enter a URL. AI crawls the page and generates page objects, locators, and Gherkin scenarios. Mix Web UI actions and API calls in the same test — verify backend data matches what's on screen.

PlaywrightTypeScriptCucumberWeb + APIFull Stack
API

Java + REST Assured + Cucumber

Provide a base URL and optional Swagger spec. AI generates Gherkin scenarios, a test data file, JWT authentication setup, and Java step definitions. Works with any REST API.
