QA and Audits: Testing, Performance, Security and Code Review

Quality is not a phase at the end of a project. It is a set of gates a change has to pass before it reaches a user, and an honest answer about the state of a system you already run. Both need engineers who read code, write tests, break things on purpose, and report what they find without softening it.

InsightSol provides both. For systems in development we build the test automation, performance tests, and release gates that keep quality measurable. For systems already in production we audit code, architecture, security, accessibility, and AI behavior, and return a written report with severity, evidence, and the fix for every finding.

In brief

What do QA and audits at InsightSol cover?

Test automation and release gates for systems in development, and independent audits of code, architecture, security, accessibility, performance, and AI behavior for systems in production, each returned as a written report with severity, evidence, and the fix for every finding.

  • Unit, integration, and end-to-end suites on Playwright, Vitest, and pytest, run on every pull request with written gates
  • k6 load tests against staging that find the slow query, the lock, and the breaking point before a customer does
  • OWASP-based security review and WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility testing with prioritized remediation
  • AI evaluation suites measuring accuracy, hallucination rate, prompt-injection resistance, and cost per transaction

Who this is for

  • Engineering teams shipping without automated tests, or with a suite nobody trusts
  • Companies that need an independent review before a launch, an acquisition, or a compliance deadline
  • Teams running an LLM or agent system that has never been measured for accuracy or safety

What you receive

  • Test strategy and automated suites wired into CI with written release gates
  • Load test results with the bottlenecks found and fixes recommended
  • Security assessment report with prioritized remediation
  • Accessibility conformance report against WCAG 2.2 AA
  • Code and architecture review with findings ranked by severity
  • AI evaluation suite and report covering accuracy, hallucination, injection, and cost

Architecture pattern

How the assurance program is put together.

The layers we put between a change and your users, in the order a release passes through them. Every gate has a written threshold and every finding carries its evidence.

  1. 1

    Test strategy and automation

    Unit, integration, and end-to-end tests on Playwright, Vitest, and pytest, written against the behaviors that matter and run on every pull request.

  2. 2

    Performance and load testing

    k6 scenarios replaying realistic traffic against staging to find the slow query, the lock, and the breaking point before a customer does.

  3. 3

    Security assessment

    OWASP-based review of authentication, authorization, input handling, secrets, and dependencies, with dynamic scanning and a prioritized remediation list.

  4. 4

    Accessibility and quality audits

    WCAG 2.2 AA conformance testing with automated scans and assistive-technology passes, plus code and architecture review against maintainability and scale.

  5. 5

    AI system evaluation

    Evaluation suites for LLM and agent systems: accuracy, hallucination rate, prompt-injection resistance, and cost per transaction, run before launch and on a schedule after it.

Failure prevention

Release gates, not opinions

Every gate has a threshold written down: test pass rate, p99 latency, crash-free rate, and zero open critical findings.

Tests on real behavior

Automation targets user journeys and contracts rather than implementation details, so refactors do not break the suite.

Severity with evidence

Each audit finding carries a severity, the proof, the affected code, and the fix, so engineering can act without a second investigation.

Re-test after remediation

Fixed findings are verified by rerunning the original test, and the report is updated so the record is accurate.

Targets we design to

  • 0

    open critical findings at the release gate

  • <15min

    full automated suite on every pull request

  • 100%

    of findings with severity, evidence, and a fix

How the engagement runs

From audit to handover.

An audit runs one to three weeks depending on the size of the system and returns a written report with every finding ranked by severity and paired with its fix, followed by a walkthrough with your engineers. A QA build-out runs alongside your delivery team, adding automation and gates in order of risk until the release process is measurable. Both can continue as a retainer with scheduled re-audits.

Questions about this service

Yes, and it is a common reason to call us. We review code, infrastructure, security, and tests, and report independently. If the system is sound we say so; if it is not, you get the evidence and a remediation plan you can give to any team.

We run OWASP-based security assessments and dynamic scanning, and remediate what we find. For a certified penetration test required by an auditor or a customer, we scope it with a specialist partner and fix the findings.

With an evaluation suite of real anonymized cases with known correct outcomes, run against the live prompts, models, and tools. It measures accuracy, hallucination rate, resistance to prompt injection, and cost per transaction, and it reruns in CI so a change cannot quietly degrade the system.
