Is it worth automating everything?

No. We often find that customers want to automate thousands of manual test cases 1:1. This is expensive and maintenance-intensive. We provide honest advice: we only automate what runs frequently and is critical. Human checks in one-off scenarios or UX checks lead to higher quality, and often faster and cheaper.

How is the success of QA measures measured?

Thanks to KPIs, we make well-founded, data-based decisions. KPIs give us clear orientation and help us to act confidently and based on facts. With KPIs, we work on the basis of data and thus gain more certainty in our decisions.

Will MaibornWolff take over the testing permanently?

It depends on your goal. Although we offer "Test as a Service" as a permanent solution, our preferred approach is enablement. We coach your teams, establish processes and build up the necessary know-how internally. Our aim is to make us superfluous again in the medium term so that you can act independently and confidently.

What role does AI play in software quality assurance?

Internally, we use generative AI to create test cases and data more quickly. We also check the result for you: we validate your AI models and secure AI-generated code. After all, when machines are programming, you need people with brains to ensure that the result is correct.

Software Quality Assurance

Customized test solutions for your business software

Testing where it counts

We don't blindly check everything, but the right thing: according to risk and real business value. This is how we secure critical functions - with minimal effort but maximum impact for your business.

Automation with purpose

We only use automation where it pays off: from UI to API. Stably integrated into CI/CD and built to be maintainable, your release cycles shrink from weeks to hours. Fast and cleanly solved.

Facts instead of gut feeling

Put an end to the principle of hope: clear reports and a clear go-live recommendation provide certainty. So that you can make decisions based on data - and not by reading coffee grounds.

Safely through the audit

Compliance by Design makes audits relaxed: We deliver auditable processes and seamless documentation. Whether BaFin, ISO or the Accessibility Act: you are prepared before the auditor rings.

For whom is software QA relevant?

In short: for anyone for whom a software error really hurts; be it in your wallet, your image or in front of the auditor. We are the right partner when "hoping it goes well" is not an option.

We often support teams in these situations:

Regulated sectors (finance, health, insurance)

Do you have strict requirements (BaFin, FDA, ISO) and the next audit is just around the corner? We provide the necessary compliance and documentation to keep you relaxed.

Groups with complex landscapes

Has your IT grown over the years and every change to the system feels like open-heart surgery? We bring security to updates and refactorings.

Companies in the digital transformation

Are you transitioning from a hardware manufacturer to a software provider (e.g. IoT), but lack internal testing structures? We work with you to set these up, from strategy to team enablement.

Heterogeneous system landscapes

No more silos: we develop a QA architecture that combines technologies, manages test data centrally and secures end-to-end scenarios.

High complexity and time pressure

Lack of internal know-how

Long release cycles
