Automation.
From day one.
Our ready-to-use frameworks let implementation begin on the first day of our association, with the agreed access and scenarios in place. Avoid months of building a framework from scratch.
YOUR EXTENDED QA TEAM
One QA budget.
A whole team
behind you.
Your delivery deserves more than a single pair of hands. Bring four complementary QA specialists into your corner.

THE CLIENT ADVANTAGE
What your
business gains.
More capability from your QA budget. An earlier start on automation. A team that owns the work and the people behind it.
ONE QA RESOURCE BUDGET. FOUR QA SPECIALISTS.A full working day.
8+hours of daily
QA productivity
QA productivity
A full working day.
A whole team behind it.
Our commitment is at least eight hours of productive QA work each working day, delivered across your managed team. Execution, technical guidance, and delivery coordination work together to move more forward.
Daily priorities and role allocation are agreed around your engagement.
Automation.
Your QA keeps
moving.
We own replacements, handovers, and resource management. Because all four team members are QA practitioners, the others can carry the work while a replacement joins.
Smoke & sanity
checks, sooner.
Prioritise the critical paths early. Quick automated checks help your team spot broken builds and key workflow issues before deeper testing begins.
Shorter feedback
loops.
Run useful checks through your CI/CD pipeline and return results to developers sooner. Earlier feedback supports quicker, better-informed release decisions.
Stability that gets
attention.
Technical reviews, failure analysis, and ongoing maintenance help keep regression coverage dependable as your application changes.
More focus for
your business.
One accountable QA partner for execution, guidance, and daily progress. Your team spends less time coordinating staffing and more time on clients and delivery.

- Technical guidance and delivery ownership
- Shared knowledge and staffing continuity
THE TEAM BEHIND YOUR TEAM
Four specialists.
One shared responsibility.
Hands-on testing, technical direction, and daily delivery management. All four are hands-on manual QA and automation engineers, with responsibilities distributed across execution, guidance, and coordination.
QA engineer
Turns requirements into test scenarios, manual checks, and reliable automation.
BUILD & TESTQA engineer
Expands coverage, investigates failures, and keeps regression testing moving.
EXECUTE & IMPROVETechnical lead
Guides framework decisions, reviews implementation, and removes technical blockers.
GUIDE & REVIEWPMO / Scrum Master
Coordinates priorities, tracks progress, and keeps communication and delivery aligned.
PLAN & DELIVERA managed team model aligned to your agreed scope and budget. Role allocation and availability are defined together before kickoff.
WHAT WE CAN HANDLE
From the first test
to the next release.
Plug us into a specific QA challenge or bring us across your testing lifecycle. We meet your team where it is.
Talk through your requirements
01Manual & exploratory QA
Functional checks, exploratory testing, regression execution, and clear defect reporting grounded in your acceptance criteria.
02Web & API automation
Automate critical browser journeys and API checks. Build useful coverage with Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, or REST Assured, according to your environment.
03Frameworks built to last
Develop a new framework or contribute to your existing one. Establish reusable components, test data practices, and suitable BDD or TDD approaches.
04CI/CD test integration
Connect automated execution to your delivery pipeline, with agreed run triggers, readable results, and stakeholder notifications.
05Stability & maintenance
Investigate unreliable tests, adapt coverage as the application changes, and improve the maintainability of your automation suite.
06Reporting & visibility
Share execution outcomes, defects, blockers, and delivery updates in a format your stakeholders can use, including HTML and PDF reports.

Progress you can follow.
Technical reviews and delivery coordination make priorities, blockers, and next steps visible.
START WITH A PILOT
Start small.
See the work.
Build from there.
A focused pilot gives both teams a practical way to evaluate the fit before scaling into a project or managed engagement.
Let’s scope your pilot

Choose meaningful scenarios
Agree a focused slice of your product and what success should look like.
See the implementation
Review the approach, execution, and reporting in your working context.
Decide the next step
Assess quality and collaboration, then agree the right engagement.
Scope, duration, and commercial terms are agreed before the pilot begins.
WORK YOU CAN SEE

OUR STORY
From classrooms.
To client teams.
Our journey began in 2019 with a focus on QA education. We visited colleges, taught aspiring professionals, and helped them become QA engineers.
Over time, that work grew into a strong bench of skilled QA engineers. We continue to teach the next generation, developing the talent at the heart of CICD TEST.
Today, our primary focus is B2B QA partnerships. We bring this pool of skilled engineers to IT services businesses through managed QA teams and automation projects, connecting the talent we develop with the delivery needs of our clients.
How does the four-person model work?
We propose a managed team of two QA engineers, a technical lead, and a PMO / Scrum Master against an agreed senior or lead QA role budget. The roles work together; allocation and availability are defined for your scope. Our productivity commitment is at least eight hours of productive QA work each working day, delivered across the team. All four members have manual QA and automation capability.
How quickly can automation start?
Our ready-to-use frameworks let automation implementation start from day one, with the agreed environment access and scenarios in place. We adapt the framework to your application rather than starting every engagement with months of framework development.
Can you work with our existing framework?
Yes. We can contribute to an existing framework, extend its coverage, improve its stability, or build a new framework where appropriate. We assess your current setup before agreeing the approach.
Do you support manual testing too?
Yes. Our scope can include manual QA, exploratory checks, regression execution, and automation. The mix depends on your product, release priorities, and agreed engagement.
What happens if a team member leaves?
CICD TEST manages internal replacement and handover. All four members have hands-on QA capability, so the remaining team can continue the work during the transition. We handle replacement hiring and onboarding.
Do we have to commit to a long engagement?
A pilot is our preferred starting point. We agree a focused scope and commercial terms, then review the work together before deciding whether a fixed project or managed team is the right next step.
