Test Strategy & Planning
We define what to test, at what level, and how much is enough — a proportionate plan rather than a generic checklist applied to every project.
Services / Quality
Quality
Assurance
QA at 11Seas is not a gate at the end of a project. Testing runs inside every sprint, so defects surface while the code is fresh and cheap to fix rather than during a tense pre-launch week.
We combine automated coverage on critical paths with structured manual testing where human judgment matters — usability, edge cases, and the things automation reliably misses.
“Why do bugs keep reaching production?”
Almost always because testing was scheduled as a phase instead of a habit. When QA participates from sprint one, defects get caught at the point they're introduced — when a fix takes minutes rather than a coordinated hotfix.

Automated Testing
Automation where it earns its keep: regression suites that run on every commit and catch breakage before a human ever sees it.
Manual & Exploratory Testing
Structured exploratory sessions on real devices, covering usability, unusual states, and the combinations no one wrote a ticket for.
Performance & Security Testing
Load and stress testing against realistic traffic, plus security review covering the OWASP basics — authentication, authorization, injection, and data exposure.

QA as a phase vs. QA as a habit
Testing at the end
- Defects found weeks after the code was written
- Pre-launch crunch to triage a backlog of bugs
- Regressions discovered by users after release
- Vague bug reports that need investigating first
- Release confidence based on hope
Testing inside every sprint
- Defects caught while the code is still fresh
- Steady quality with no pre-launch scramble
- Automated regression suite guarding every commit
- Reproducible reports with steps and evidence
- Documented go/no-go before each deploy
QA services
Everything below is in scope for a typical engagement — we scope precisely against your situation before quoting.
Test artifacts, automation suites, and reports remain yours and stay in your repositories.
- Functional testing — verifying features behave as specified across supported platforms.
- Regression automation — a suite that grows with the product and guards against silent breakage.
- Cross-browser and cross-device testing — real coverage of the environments your users are on.
- Performance and load testing — establishing limits before your users find them.
- Security testing — OWASP-aligned review of authentication, authorization, and data handling.
- Accessibility testing — keyboard navigation, screen reader behavior, and contrast verification.
- Release certification — a documented go/no-go assessment before each production deploy.
Frequently
Asked
Questions
Yes. We regularly provide QA for products built by other teams, whether as an ongoing function or a one-off release audit.
Playwright and Cypress for end-to-end, Jest and Vitest for JavaScript unit tests, PyTest for Python, and XCTest and Espresso for native mobile.
It depends on stability. Mature, high-traffic paths deserve heavy automation. Rapidly changing features are usually cheaper to test manually until they settle.
Yes — a physical device lab for the most common configurations, supplemented by cloud device farms for wider OS and model coverage.
We do this often: establishing test strategy, tooling, and workflow, then training your team to run it independently.
We flag severity immediately with reproduction steps and impact assessment, then work with you on the call — fix and hold, or ship with a known limitation and a scheduled patch.
Quality is cheaper than repair
Every defect caught in a sprint costs a fraction of one found in production — no emergency release, no support backlog, no eroded trust. That economic reality is why QA is built into how we work rather than sold as an…
