Testopius
👤Built for solo builders, indie hackers, and freelancers

Fixed-price QA for your side project.

Shipping alone means testing alone. Not ideal. Three packages — from a $250 Spot Check to a $1,500 Automation Starter. Each with a locked scope and delivery date.

Solo problems, solo packages

Sound like your Tuesday?

“You're the developer, designer, marketer AND tester”

$250 Spot Check — I test one critical flow (signup, checkout, onboarding) in 3 business days and send the report. You stay shipping.

“You've got an MVP going in front of an investor tomorrow”

$900 Full QA Audit covers your web app end-to-end in 1 week: prioritized bug list, UX notes, one retest round.

“Every release is the same regression nightmare”

$1,500 Automation Starter — Playwright setup + 20 critical-flow tests. Your team runs them after handoff.

“You don't want a retainer — you want scoped work”

Every package is one-off, fixed price, fixed timeline. No monthly commitment, no hourly rates.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you probably want to know before we talk.

I'm based in Europe (GMT+3) but async-first. I overlap comfortably with EU, UK, and US East Coast hours, and deliver written reports so no meeting scheduling is required.
