Thanks, Pucholo. Updating the Profile is one of the feature that we're working on for the next release.

Status of the pending tests takes 2 hours-12 hours depending on the load on the system and the complexity of the test. You can enter additional tests even if you have pending tests. There is no limit on the number of tests that you can setup.

TestRise is a fit for applications that have launched and say do weekly deployments to production which need to be periodically tested. The client can use our service to test their staging environment first and after all their tests have passed, they can get us to test production afterwards as well.

Companies who require faster turnaround times will be able to do so in the future as well. The Unlimited plan with a single parallel test works very well for early stage startups that can execute the tests at the end of their workday knowing that when they come back the next morning they will have their results.

The unlimited plan is not a good fit for people who are deploying multiple times a day and need much faster turnaround times.

Arielm those are all good points.

1. I completely understand, being a software tester for over 10 years. We are going to build in functions in the software that will make it easier for users.

2. The unlimited plan is limited in the launch phase to certain number of companies already. We are going to shutting down sign ups after hitting that level to avoid disappointment as you have mentioned.

3. TestRise isn’t a replacement for Selenium. While automated tests have their place, using real users with real devices brings up a lot more edge cases.

Would be great to hear your thoughts in detail and swap notes about your experience with prior similar services. I can be reached at analyn (at) testrise (dot) com

Biot you made some excellent points. The pricing at the moment is definitely exploratory. Our goal is to limit the number of people we sign up at this level and learn from the process.

I think your idea of limiting the amount of tests is great and something we will definitely explore. When we were running the service for clients manually we did something similar. As for services such as 24/7 support along with neat features like variables and interacting with API's they are on the roadmap. We are bootstrapping this at the moment and looking for our first 10 - 20 customers to work with us as we refine the service. They get a very affordable QA service and we refine our process.

Biot if you have used rainforestqa before would be great if I could ask you a couple of questions over email if possible. I can be reached at analyn (at) testrise (dot) com. Your help would be greatly appreciated
