RPG Game Testing
To help bring a fantasy RPG to life, QATestLab joined the project from day one — working hand in hand with developers to ensure smooth gameplay, stable performance, and a flawless player experience. We built a tailored testing strategy, covered a wide range of devices, and performed comprehensive testing throughout development.
Customer
A role-playing game in which players form a team of heroes to fight enemies in dungeons. The game features a variety of characters, skills, quests, and challenges. Players can collect and upgrade their heroes and take part in battles.
Tasks
- to engage a QA team from the initial stage of the project.
- to conduct a project audit and build a test strategy from scratch.
- to identify and address critical issues such as blockers, crashes, or major bugs in the game’s features.

Realization
We joined the project at an early stage of the game's development and were fully integrated into the project. We attend all internal meetings and work closely with the development team. This enabled us to quickly adapt test plans to the project's changing needs and provide comprehensive QA support at every stage of the game's creation.
