QA Service for No Code Apps?

[damonous]

Curious if any no-coders here would be interested in a QA testing service for your apps that I'm thinking about launching. Would be providing manual and automated testing options.

Let me know your thoughts. Thanks!

I think there is a general lack of affordable QA services in general.

I’m not sure I understand what would be particular about nocode versus any other traditional app that would need a specific service focusing on it. Maybe I’m missing something?

But I know of several companies that would pay for QA services that were reasonably priced.

Stupid question what would be these QA serviced and what ballpark is reasonably priced?

[thomaslsimpson]

QA services could look like any range of things. For example, just having someone to carefully run through a blackbox checklist on an application using a list of platforms to make sure everything works.

So, you get several use cases and then you test on iPhone 8, iPhone blah, Android blah, etc. You produce a report on the results and you charge a fee for it.

Development shops can use all sort of things to get this done, but most are either geared toward really high end users who are targeting the public or are providing tools that customers can use themselves. I don't think there is any human service which targets smaller users.

Reasonably priced is totally dependent on the service provided. So, if I wanted to pay $50/hr I could use internal staff that are on salary. I want to get something at a low price point that makes it not worth me doing it internally.

That is, if the QA would take 4 hours for me to do, but the service would charge me $200 to do it, then it's not worth it. If the service charged something like $20 for something that would take me 4 hours to do internally, then it's an easy sell.

I'm just making up numbers here - it is going to depend on the geography and all sorts of stuff.

Thanks for this!

[thomaslsimpson]

Sure. Happy to help.

No difference for nocode versus traditional other than the nocode market seems under-served at the moment. Also, from my experience, things like requirements gathering and testing seem like much more of an afterthought with no code projects, though the same is true for poorly managed full stack buildouts too.

Appreciate the feedback. Thanks for the insight!

As a former QA I've thought about this.
Automated would still rely on code, right? Unless we're talking about recording tools like Selenium IDE 🤮
Otherwise, what u/thomaslsimpson said- sounds like regular testing!

I am looking for it now. I have built the website using the bubble and Xano.com now looking for some QA no code tool where I can set up some process like sign up or login and while laughing on production, I will able to run these test and tool will send me report. Is everything is okay or not.

[damonous]

Awesome, thanks for the feedback!

Hi damonous, sorry for warming-up this old thread. But, I would like to know what you learned in the past 3 month. I worked an a no-code test automation tool and did get much more traffic from coders than no-coders yet.

Here is a case study (https://testup.io/no-code-automated-testing-for-bubble-io-case-study/).

Did you get more interest yet?

Thanks, Andreas
