Web app testing

Short answer

Web app testing at QA Patrol is manual and automated QA for web products, done by Mate Ajduković. The web tools on the site are Cypress, Selenium, and Playwright. Named work includes the JavaScript and Cypress end-to-end suite at Carb Manager, and Java plus Selenium at Ericsson and BetBright. The same person also covers mobile and API when the engagement needs it.

What web testing covers here

  • Manual and automated web testing. Ericsson’s write-up says both, in Java and Selenium. BetBright’s says the same, on a sportsbook that had mobile and web.
  • An end-to-end web suite. Carb Manager: built and maintained in JavaScript and Cypress, alongside Vue.js in that project’s stack.
  • Test strategy across the SDLC, hiring and mentoring testers, and Release Train Engineer duty, all named on Carb Manager.
  • Playwright is on the web tool list and on the Toptal stack. Client names for that Playwright work are under NDA.
  • Exploratory testing and QA strategy, both core skills on the homepage, apply to web the same way they apply to mobile.

Where this shows up

Mate's expertise was critical in transitioning from a loose collection of contractors to a cohesive and synergized engineering team. He implemented practical testing strategies that reduced regressions and elevated our overall code quality.

How an engagement runs

A testing engagement uses one of the four shapes already published on QA Patrol. The site does not add a separate delivery timeline on top of these.

  • Embedded QA, marked most popular: full-time, part-time, or hourly. Joins standups, sprint planning, and retros, and works the backlog. Mobile, web, and API, manual and automated.
  • QA Consulting, listed as custom: process audit and review, strategy and roadmap, tool selection, and ongoing advisory.
  • Team Training, listed as custom: workshop content for that team, hands-on exercises, real-world scenarios, and follow-up support.
  • 1-on-1 Mentoring, listed as “Let’s talk”: career guidance, test automation coaching, interview preparation, and flexible scheduling.
  • The contract is direct, or through an EOR such as Deel or Remote.com.

Pricing

Hourly QA is $40. A one-off QA audit (about 20 hours, findings report) is from $800. Test automation setup (about 60 hours, framework and first suites) is from $2,400. Fractional QA is from $1,600 a month at about 10 hours a week, or from $3,200 a month at about 20 hours a week. “From” prices depend on the final scope.

The full list is on the pricing page, in US dollars. The Croatian page lists euro prices, which are set amounts, not a conversion. Companies hire Mate directly as a contractor or via an employer of record (Deel, Remote.com, and similar).

Questions

Do you use Cypress, Selenium, or Playwright?

All three are on the web tool list. Cypress is the suite named at Carb Manager. Selenium is the tool named at Ericsson and BetBright. Playwright is listed for web and for Toptal engagements, with those client names under NDA.

Is web testing only automation?

No. The site says manual or automated. Ericsson and BetBright both describe manual and automated testing. Exploratory testing is a listed skill.

What result can you cite from Carb Manager?

The published facts are: Lead QA from May 2021 to June 2025, a product with 8M+ users, a Cypress web suite, mentoring testers, and Release Train Engineer. Michael Xavier Vinoth wrote that Mate’s testing strategies reduced regressions and raised code quality. The site does not give a percentage for that reduction.

Can web QA sit inside the engineering team?

Yes. Embedded QA joins standups, sprint planning, and retros and works the backlog, including web alongside mobile and API.

Do you publish a web testing rate?

Yes. Hourly QA is $40. A one-off QA audit (about 20 hours, findings report) is from $800. Test automation setup (about 60 hours, framework and first suites) is from $2,400. Fractional QA is from $1,600 a month at about 10 hours a week, or from $3,200 a month at about 20 hours a week. “From” prices depend on the final scope. The list is on the pricing page.
