Connect companies to testers who truly understand what they do to generate savings on expenses related to issues arising from software errors and bugs that will occur, sooner or later, and generate losses (big ones). With a prevention work, proactive action and neutralization, a startup TSTR, founded in Uberlândia, wants to anticipate the problem and, for that, developed a solution for companies to spend much less on the damages caused by these failures, and can make the operation more sustainable. It seems just tech and finance, but it is also social impact in our lives.
This is because recent studies indicate that software failures cost global companies about $1,7 trillion per year in downtime, loss of revenue and damage to reputation, not to mention the losses to users, consumers and clients, what, in the case of the health sector, it can mean life or death.
In the case of the economy, jobs can go down the drain. Thinking about it, a startup solves this critical problem (or a good part of it), ensuring that the products are launched without flaws, what results in a reliable user experience. Up ahead, it will not be necessary to put out fires and spend millions on repairs.
This was made possible by the joining of a community of over 1.000 qualified testers, force by which TSTR wants to enter a suppressed $40 billion market. "We do not target the large conglomerates", our average client is startups with up to 50 employees that provide software services for companies, banks, fintechs etc.”, explain the founder João Júnior, technology specialist, programmer and developer
Global bread? It was possible to avoid
To exemplify, we can mention the cyber blackout of July 20, that disrupted the operations of American airlines, the operation of airports in Europe, from India, from Hong Kong and Singapore, in addition to live broadcasts from television networks in the United Kingdom and Australia. Banks, train stations and hospitals were affected. Various stock exchanges around the world also had to suspend trading.In Brazil, banks were affected.
The founder of the startup assures that the problem could have been avoided with prior action. "The TSTR balcony", a spin-off of 4ALL Tests, is to ensure (based on data and strategy) that your clients deliver flawless products to the market, ensuring a flawless and high-value user experience. For that, we use a series of principles and operational techniques that prevent cost waste, increase the quality of the product and the maximization of the value delivered to the customer, affirms
But how does it work, in practice?
The company operates as a platform that connects businesses to a vast community of specialized testers, offering services that range from executing tests on specific demands to the complete management of testing areas.
"The differential of TSTR lies in the combination of cutting-edge practices with a large community of experienced testers". Using methodologies such asShiftLeft Testingand Lean philosophy, TSTR integrates tests from the early stages of development, promoting early detection and correction of failures.This approach reduces the time to launch new products, minimizes bugs in production and results in more stable and reliable software, explain the founder and partner João Júnior.
It's about technology, but first about the impact on people
We talk about cutting-edge technology, but, in the end, we are generating solutions in the lives of people and companies. Bugs or flaws that hinder access to bank apps, problems in advanced medical systems and failures in aerial systems generate immense financial losses, but, more than that, can cause irreversible damage to people's physical and mental health, explain
That's why, TSTR's target market includes startups, technology companies, fintechs, healthtechs and corporations that need scalable and effective software testing solutions. The technology encompasses test automation based on the test pyramid, using cutting-edge tools to perform functional testing, of performance, security and usability at all layers of the software.
For example, in projects with our clients, we automated more than 80% of the regression tests, drastically reducing the time to launch new products and updates, in addition to minimizing the occurrence of bugs in production. This results in more stable products, greater end-user satisfaction and long-term cost savings, affirms

The growing need for automation and continuous testing drives the adoption of our solutions, opening new opportunities to expand our customer base and increase our market share, complete the founder.
