Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the buyer questions we hear most before a project starts.
- What is the difference between manual testing and manual QA?
- Manual testing is the act of executing tests by hand. Manual QA is the broader practice — test planning, execution, bug triage, and release sign-off. GreeLogix provides both under our Manual Testing Services practice.
- How fast can manual testing start?
- Most engagements kick off within 48 hours of scoping. We need staging access, test accounts, and a brief on critical flows.
- Do you integrate with our bug tracker?
- Yes. We file bugs directly in Jira, Linear, GitHub Issues, or your preferred tool with screenshots, severity, and repro steps.
- Can manual testing replace automation?
- No — they complement each other. Manual testing excels at exploration and UX; automation excels at repetitive regression. Mature products need both.
- How much do manual testing services cost?
- Sprint audits typically run $800–$2,500. Full release cycles $2,500–$8,000. Embedded human QA engineers $3,500–$12,000/month. Use our QA estimation calculator for a ballpark.
- Do you offer manual testing for AI-generated apps?
- Yes. Manual testing for Lovable, Cursor, Bolt, and Replit apps is a core specialty — auth, RLS, payments, and critical paths before real users.
- Can you test before App Store or Google Play submission?
- Yes. We run manual pre-submission sweeps on TestFlight and Play testing tracks with store-readiness sign-off.
- What deliverables do I get?
- Test plan, executed cases with evidence, severity-rated bugs in your tracker, device/browser matrix, and a release go/no-go report.
- Manual testing vs crowdtesting — which is better?
- Crowdtesting offers volume. Human manual testing offers judgment, continuity, and accountable sign-off from engineers who learn your product — better for revenue-critical releases.
- Do you test SaaS billing and role permissions?
- Yes. Manual SaaS testing covers subscriptions, proration, seat limits, admin tools, and cross-tenant isolation.
