FAQs

Find answers to common questions about scope, engagement model, and what results to expect.

Will this replace current QA staff?

No. The focus is operating-model improvement, governance, and capability uplift. Internal teams remain the core engine, supported by clearer roles, gates, and standards.

What is required to start?

Read-only access to repositories and pipelines, sample test and release artifacts, current SOPs or policies, and short stakeholder interviews. Production data access is avoided unless essential.

Which tools are used?

Tooling remains neutral. Existing platforms are leveraged where effective, with criteria-based recommendations for additions only when they reduce risk or cost of quality.

Can existing automation be salvaged or should it be replaced?

Most suites can be stabilized by addressing flakiness patterns, ownership, and standards.

Will delivery slow down during changes?

Changes are piloted in a single stream with defined gates and rollback options. Most teams observe shorter lead time once TestOps basics (environments, data, and gates) stabilize.

How does this work with existing Quality Teams or vendors?

Consulting aligns outputs to risk-based coverage, sets acceptance criteria for reports, and integrates evidence into central traceability — without disrupting current supplier relationships.
