Playwright test automation installed in your repo in 5 days. $1,500 flat.
You ship faster than QA can keep up. I bring a production-grade Playwright framework, install it in your repo, write 20 tests covering your critical user paths, and wire it into your CI. You own all the code. Fixed price, fixed scope, fixed timeline.
Three tiers. One promise: fixed scope, fixed price.
Every tier ships the same core framework. The difference is depth of coverage and how long I stay engaged afterward.
Starter Install
Get a production-grade Playwright framework installed in your repo with your first 20 critical-path tests written and passing in CI.
- Playwright Pro framework installed in your repo (Page Object Model, fixtures, factories)
- 20 end-to-end tests covering your critical user paths (login, signup, checkout, dashboard)
- CI wired into Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions — parallel execution, HTML + JUnit reports
- Loom walkthrough so your team can write the 21st test themselves
- 7 days of email support after handoff
Pro Sprint
Everything in Starter plus 20 more tests, flake-fix support, and a written test strategy doc for the next quarter.
- Everything in the Starter Install
- 40 end-to-end tests instead of 20 — wider coverage of your real user flows
- 2 weeks of active flake-fix and selector-stability work
- Written test strategy document: what to automate next, what NOT to automate, and why
- 1 hour of live pairing with your team on extending the framework
Full Month
Embedded part-time SDET for a full month. Web + API coverage, CI hardening, and onboarding for your first internal QA hire. We scope the highest-value endpoints together on the kickoff call — if your app is enormous, this becomes the foundation rather than total coverage.
- Everything in the Pro Sprint
- API test layer added (supertest / REST-style coverage of your backend endpoints)
- CI hardening — parallel sharding, retry logic, and selector-stability work to reduce flake
- Onboarding doc + recorded walkthroughs for the QA engineer you hire next
- 30 days of Slack-based async support
Why this works
20+ years in QA & SDET roles
Long career across enterprise QA, test architecture, and SDET work. The framework you would install is the same one I use on my own projects.
Public, working framework
The framework is already built, tested against live production sites, and battle-proven. You can review the patterns on this site before we ever talk.
Azure DevOps + GitHub Actions
Pipelines for both major CI systems. Lint, test, report, artifact — wired and proven, not a hello-world stub.
You own the code
Everything ships into your repo under your license. No subscription, no per-seat lock-in, no vendor account to manage. When the engagement ends, you keep everything.
Supported stacks
If your stack is in this list, we can move fast. If it is not, the scoping call is free and I will tell you honestly whether someone else is a better fit.
- Playwright — TypeScript or JavaScript
- Playwright — C# / .NET 8
- Cypress — TypeScript
- Selenium — Python or C#
- CI: Azure DevOps Pipelines or GitHub Actions
- API testing: supertest, REST-style HTTP coverage
Honest fit check
Save us both a call. If you do not fit the left column, book a different vendor.
Built for
- Seed / Series A SaaS teams (10-50 people) shipping faster than QA can keep up
- Engineering teams about to hire their first QA engineer and want a clean foundation waiting
- Existing teams whose Cypress or Selenium suite has become a flaky bottleneck
- Engineering leaders who want CI test runs they can actually trust before a release
Not the right fit
- Java / JVM stacks — not a language I work in for this service
- Mobile-app-only testing (iOS / Android native — not my strongest lane)
- Manual / exploratory QA only — this is automation work
- Teams that want me to also write production application code
- Anyone expecting a person to ship 200 tests in a week (that is not how good testing works)
How an install actually goes
Free 20-minute scoping call
You show me your app and CI. I tell you which 20 tests would protect you most and confirm the package fits. No sales script.
Fixed-price proposal in 24 hours
One page. Scope, timeline, deliverables, and what is explicitly out of scope. You either say yes or no — no back-and-forth haggling.
Repo access + kickoff
You add me to a private branch. I push the framework on day 1, the first 5 tests on day 2, and we iterate from there with a daily Slack/email update.
Handoff + Loom walkthrough
Final commit, recorded walkthrough of every directory and pipeline, and a written maintenance guide. Your team owns it from there.
Questions buyers ask
Why fixed price instead of hourly?
Because you should know what you owe before you sign. Hourly is a tax on slow vendors and an excuse for scope creep. The scope is fixed, the price is fixed, the timeline is fixed. If a tier does not fit your reality, we redefine the scope before kickoff, not after.
Which languages and tools do you support?
Playwright (TypeScript and C#), Cypress (TypeScript), and Selenium (Python or C#). CI in Azure DevOps Pipelines or GitHub Actions. API testing with supertest-style HTTP coverage. Java / JVM stacks are not part of this offering.
How is this different from the off-the-shelf framework kits?
The kits are the framework on its own. The install is the framework wired into YOUR repo, with YOUR critical paths covered, running in YOUR CI, with a person on the other end answering questions. Most teams who buy a kit could install it themselves in a week. The install is for teams whose week is already full.
What if my app is not a typical SaaS?
Book the free scoping call anyway. The framework works on anything with a web UI — internal admin tools, marketplaces, dashboards, e-commerce. If your stack is something I cannot test reliably (heavy canvas, native mobile, embedded hardware) I will tell you on the call and not take the money.
Do you sign NDAs?
Yes, mutual NDAs are standard before I see any code. Send yours or I will send a simple two-page one.
What about ongoing maintenance after handoff?
The Full Month tier includes 30 days of async Slack support. After that, monthly retainer is available at $1,200/month for ~8 hours of work. Most teams do not need this once a junior QA engineer is in place.
Can I see code from a past engagement?
Past client code is under NDA. What I can show you is the same architecture and patterns running across the kits on this site — the exact patterns that get installed.
What if you cannot finish in the quoted timeline?
I keep working at no extra cost until the scoped deliverables are complete. The only situation where the clock pauses is when I am blocked waiting on access, credentials, or answers from your team.
