Expert testing.
Practical quality advice.
manualTesting is an available managed testing service and consultancy from TestLauncher, a Canadian-owned software innovation company. Expert human testers use AI-assisted testing and automation to help innovative teams solve quality problems. It is a service, not a software product.
Human expertise. Useful automation.
Our service combines exploratory testing, AI-assisted workflows, automation, and quality consultancy. We agree the scope with you and put experienced people on the work.
- 01
Scope the challenge
Define your quality risks, applications, target users, and the evidence your team needs.
- 02
Test with expertise
Use human exploration, AI-assisted testing, and automation where they suit the agreed scope.
- 03
Act on the findings
Deliver actionable findings and practical recommendations to your team through an agreed workflow.
Where human testers still win
Automation is unbeatable on the repeatable. These are the places real-world judgment outperforms any script — and where our testers focus.
- Exploratory testing
Following a hunch a script would never form — the fastest path to the bugs that matter.
- Usability & UX
Is it confusing, slow, or frustrating? Automation can’t feel it; a person can.
- Accessibility
Real assistive-tech and keyboard journeys, judged by humans, beyond an automated scan.
- Edge cases & judgment
Is this anomaly noise or a real defect? The call automation defers to a person.
- Localization & content
Language, tone, and cultural fit that only a human reviewer reliably catches.
- Real-world scenarios
Messy, human workflows on real devices — not just the happy path in a lab.
- Beta testing & administration
Recruited, screened, and managed beta programs — segmented by demographics, location, language, and device — run end to end.
