Challenges without crowdsourcing
Businesses may grapple with significant challenges, from limited testing perspectives to potential oversights.
Limited perspectives
Limited perspectives
Businesses miss diverse testing perspectives, limiting the variety of scenarios and user experiences.
Insufficient diversity
Insufficient diversity
Businesses may struggle to cover a wide range of devices and browsers, leading to potential issues in compatibility.
Missed localization
Missed localization
There are chances of overlooking cultural considerations, impacting the product's effectiveness in different regions.
Delayed identification
Delayed identification

What we test
Use the power of the crowd to test your software across a diverse spectrum of devices, environments, and perspectives.
Scalability
Leverage a global network of testers to scale testing efforts instantly, adapting to project demands and resource needs.
Resource exhaustion
Pushing CPU, memory, and network to their limits exposes performance degradation and denial-of-service risks.
Eye-strain testing
Look at visual design elements and interaction patterns to reduce user tiredness.
Cultural sensitivity testing
Use diverse user groups to find potential cultural biases, offensive images, or misleading representations.
Multivariate testing
Look at complex interactions between multiple variables to find the best combinations.
Chaos engineering
Test how well the system can handle failures, auto-healing, and disaster preparedness.
Mobile network emulation
Test mobile app performance under real-world cellular conditions (latency, jitter, packet loss).
Data mutation
Change records in unexpected ways to test the app’s response to data integrity issues.
And other validations like
Localization testing, installation/update testing, and recovery testing.

How AI-Driven Test Automation Enhances Business Efficiency and Reduces Costs
- Nov 15, 2024
If there was a way to make your software testing faster, more accurate, and much less expensive, wouldn’t that be a game changer? That’s exactly what AI test automation is making possible. Traditional testing methods are slow, tedious, and expensive—especially as software gets more complex. Manual testing is time-consuming, brings errors throughout the process, and is a costly proposition. However, these problems can be overcome with AI-powered automation.
Shift Left Testing Approach: What It Is and Why It’s Essential in QA
- Nov 8, 2024
Shift Left Testing is all about moving testing further left, as far up the development process as possible. Tight schedules are another favorable factor in testing early and often so that the development process is smoother and of higher quality. Wondering how this approach works and why it’s causing such a massive shift in development practices? Now, let’s look at how Shift Left Testing makes efficiency, quality, and collaboration the focus of software development.
What is Test Observability in Software Testing?
- Nov 4, 2024
In software testing, it is our job to understand how applications behave in their real-world environment. With observability, teams gain a better view: not just detecting issues but understanding why they’re occurring in the first place. In testing observability, unlike traditional monitoring, which typically signals when things go wrong, observability focuses on why and where it happened so the team can optimize system health.

Frequently Asked Questions
Crowdsourced Software Testing is a testing approach that involves leveraging a diverse group of external testers, often from different geographical locations, to perform testing activities. It differs from traditional testing approaches by harnessing the collective intelligence and diversity of the crowd, enabling faster test execution, broader test coverage, and access to a wide range of devices and environments.
Our crowdsourced testing services cover various testing types, including functional testing, usability testing, performance testing, and compatibility testing. We customize our services to meet the specific needs of clients across industries, ensuring that the crowd is strategically engaged to address diverse testing requirements.
Onboarding and training involve clear documentation, instructional videos, and webinars to familiarize crowd testers with testing objectives, tools, and project-specific requirements. We provide access to a knowledge base and support channels to address queries, ensuring that crowd testers are equipped with the necessary skills and domain knowledge.
Quality assurance involves implementing a comprehensive review process for test results. Testers' contributions are evaluated against predefined criteria, and automated tools may be used for result validation. A feedback loop is established to communicate with testers, providing clarifications and ensuring that the test results meet the required quality standards.
