Specialists in QA & Test Automation

You build the roads.
We build the railings.

Modern teams ship faster than ever — weekly releases, leaner squads, AI assistants in every editor. Speed wins markets, until something slips through and costs you a customer. LGTM Solutions is the dedicated QA partner that catches what your velocity hides — guaranteed delivery, contractual SLAs, no excuses.

The Problem

Speed wins markets.
Until something falls through.

Every day your team merges more code into systems nobody fully tested, on infrastructure nobody fully monitored. The pace is up. The review surface is up. The cost of one missed bug is up. Velocity is only an advantage when the floor doesn't fall out from under it.
Code churn has doubled in the last four years — code is being reverted or rewritten within two weeks at twice the previous rate.

The Math

The 1-10-100 Rule.

IBM's research is decades old and still painfully accurate: every stage a bug travels through before being caught multiplies its cost. The bug that's free to fix in design becomes existential in production.

1×
Design Phase
A bug caught at the requirements or design stage costs roughly $100 to resolve. It's a conversation, not a crisis.
≈ $100 / BUG
15×
QA / Testing
Caught by automated or manual QA before release: a contained fix in a known build. Annoying, but cheap.
≈ $1,500 / BUG
100×
Production
Caught by a paying user. Engineering halts, support floods, churn rises, and one in eight users walks away forever.
≈ $10,000+ / BUG

How We Work

Specialists. Embedded. Accountable.

We don't sell hours; we sell outcomes. Every engagement follows the same three-phase shape — built to drop into your existing workflow, not replace it.

01

Audit & Map

We start with a no-cost two-week audit of your codebase, deployment pipeline, and existing coverage. We surface the riskiest gaps and produce a prioritized roadmap — what to test first, what's already safe, what to delete. You get the audit deliverable whether or not you continue with us.

02

Build & Embed

Our QA engineers integrate as a dedicated pod inside your team. We write E2E suites in Cypress and Playwright, configure regression and smoke gates, instrument reporting (hosted dashboards or self-hosted), and wire everything into your CI/CD pipeline. Every test we write is yours forever.

03

Operate & Guarantee

We run on contractual SLAs: defect escape rate, critical-path coverage, mean-time-to-triage. Miss them and we credit your account. Every sprint includes a written quality report so leadership knows exactly where the product stands — no hand-waving, no dashboards-of-vanity.

The LGTM Guarantee

Quality, in writing.

Most QA vendors sell hours and hope. We sell outcomes and put them in the contract. Every LGTM engagement ships with a Quality SLA — defined in industry-standard QA terms, measured monthly, and credited back if we miss.

≤ 2%

Defect Escape Rate

The percentage of bugs that reach production after passing through our QA gate. Industry baseline is 5–10%. We commit, in writing, to 2% or less on critical paths.

≥ 95%

Critical-Path Coverage

Every user journey we mark as business-critical (signup, checkout, core feature) ships with at least 95% automated test coverage and a documented manual fallback.

< 1%

Test Flakiness Rate

Flaky tests are worse than no tests — they erode trust in the suite. Our flakiness budget is under 1%, monitored per-build, with auto-quarantine of unreliable specs.

24h

Triage SLA

Any production defect reported during business hours is acknowledged, reproduced, and root-caused within 24 hours — including a written postmortem of what the test gap was and how we're closing it.

Miss the SLA, get the month free.

If we miss any one of these metrics in a billing cycle, we credit 100% of that month's fees back to your account. No fine print, no carve-outs. We take the same risk you do.

Services

Everything QA.
Nothing extra.

We are specialists. Test automation and quality assurance is the only thing we do — and we do it across the full stack of what a modern engineering org needs to ship safely. Pick the modules that fit your stage; mix and match.

Manual

Exploratory & Manual Testing

Trained testers who think like adversarial users. We go beyond the happy path to surface UX defects, edge cases, and product-logic bugs that no automation can predict.

Automation · E2E

End-to-End Test Suites

Browser-driven user-journey tests across every critical flow. Reliable, fast, parallelized — so your team gets feedback in minutes, not overnight runs.

Automation · API

Integration Testing

Contract-first testing of your APIs, services, and data flows. Catch the breakage between systems before your users do. Schema validation, mocking, and full request-replay.

Safety Net

Regression Suites

Every commit runs against your full regression suite to confirm nothing broke. Triggered automatically, reported clearly, and maintained by us — not by your engineers in their spare time.

Safety Net

Smoke Testing

Sub-two-minute critical-path checks that fire on every deploy. Know instantly if production is healthy — before users do, before social media does, before your CEO does.

Infrastructure

CI/CD Integration & Reporting

Full pipeline setup with gating, parallel execution, and artifact storage — plus hosted or self-hosted dashboards so your team always knows what's green and what isn't.

The Founders

A small bench.
Deep on the craft.

Two founders, hands on every engagement. No juniors shadow-billed to your contract, no offshore handoffs — the people you meet on day one are the people doing the work.
