Flagship consultation

A time-boxed engagement that maps risk, existing automation, and the decisions your release process still leaves open.

Test Strategy Engagement

For product leads and QA managers who need a written strategy they can defend in planning: what to automate, what to leave manual, and which environments deserve deeper attention before the next release train.

  • Risk workshop with stakeholders you nominate
  • Automation inventory against real release criteria
  • Prioritised recommendations with effort ranges

From recent client work

Specific moments from strategy and automation reviews—not generic praise.

“StoneCore spent two days with our Melbourne squad walking through the payment release checklist. The automation backlog they left us was blunt about flaky suites we had been ignoring.”

Priya N., Engineering Manager — fintech product team

“We asked for a lighter touch than a full rewrite. They still flagged that our API contract tests were covering the wrong boundary. Slightly uncomfortable, but accurate.”

Marcus L., Head of QA — retail platform
