About FirstQA

Our Mission

We believe that quality software requires thorough testing. Automated tests are essential, but they can't catch everything.

FirstQA was founded with a simple mission: to make expert manual testing accessible to all development teams. We bridge the gap between automated testing and real-world usage, finding the issues that automation misses.

By providing on-demand manual testing directly integrated with GitHub, we help development teams ship with confidence, knowing their changes have been thoroughly tested by experts.

Why Manual Testing Matters

While automated tests are crucial for regression testing and continuous integration, they have limitations:

  • They only test what you've programmed them to test
  • They can't evaluate subjective aspects like user experience
  • They don't mimic real user behavior and unexpected paths
  • They don't catch visual or cross-browser issues

Our Approach

FirstQA provides a team of expert manual testers who:

  • Follow real-world usage patterns
  • Test across multiple devices and browsers
  • Find edge cases and rare scenarios
  • Evaluate the user experience
  • Provide detailed, actionable reports

Our Team

FirstQA is built by a team of experienced developers and QA professionals who understand the challenges of shipping high-quality software.

Our testers are carefully selected for their attention to detail, technical knowledge, and ability to think like users. They come from diverse backgrounds in software development, quality assurance, and UX design.

We're committed to providing the highest quality manual testing services, helping development teams find and fix issues before they reach users.
