S8 E5: The Evolution of TestOps: Unifying Manual and Automated QA Without the Archaic Tooling Sprawl with Nikita Fedorov, Founder & CEO of Qase

Nikita Fedorov has been a tech guy all his life. He loves physics, and eventually decided to try out being a developer, starting out with PHP and doing it for 7 years. Eventually, he moved into leadership and management of engineering teams. Outside of tech, he into his side projects and playing video games, of which is favorite is the game Dark Souls.

While he was an engineering manager, Nikita went looking for a good suite of tools to support manual testing. All of the tools he found were archaic, and looked like they came from the days of the mainframe. He decided to start building a tool that met his own need... and people liked it.

This is the creation story of Qase.
