Frequently Asked Questions
Getting Started
How do I set up FirstQA?
Apply for early access. Once invited, create your account, connect GitHub and the tools that hold your product context, then comment
/qa when you want a review. No code changes or CI configuration needed. Full setup takes under 10 minutes.
How do I trigger an analysis manually?
Comment /qa on any PR to trigger a full analysis. In Settings, you can also enable automatic analysis when a PR opens or gets new commits, optionally requiring a GitHub label.
How do I analyze a Linear or Jira ticket?
Comment /qa in a Linear or Jira issue, or use the FirstQA Chrome Extension to analyze any ticket directly from your browser. For Linear, Settings can enable automatic analysis when a ticket enters selected QA states. FirstQA suggests likely states from connected teams, and you can enter state names manually.
Test Execution
How do I run browser tests?
Comment /qa testrun on a PR. For automatically analyzed Linear tickets, browser testing has a separate Settings toggle. To target a specific environment: /qa testrun -env=https://staging.myapp.com. Results are posted back with screenshots and a Go/No-Go decision.
My app requires login — how does FirstQA authenticate?
Three options:
1. Pass context: /qa testrun -context "logged in as trial user"
2. Inject cookies: /qa testrun -context cookie:session_id=abc123
3. Configure credentials in your FirstQA dashboard (TEST_USER_EMAIL / TEST_USER_PASSWORD)
How long does a test run take?
PR analysis takes 30–90 seconds. Browser test execution takes 5–15 minutes depending on the number of scenarios.
Security & Privacy
Is my code stored?
FirstQA has read-only repository access. Code-derived product knowledge and analysis results may be stored for continuity; raw files are fetched only for authorized analysis. See our
Privacy Policy.
What permissions does the GitHub App require?
Read access to repository contents, pull requests, and issues. Write access to post PR comments and Check Runs. We never modify your code.
Billing & Access
What is the Early Access program?
Early Access is invite-based and free while we build. Apply and tell us about your team; approved teams receive an invite with no card required. You can try the full QA loop — product context, ticket and PR work, test cases, browser checks, and release decisions — before paid plans arrive.
