Test Automation as a Service: Built for speed, scale and certainty

A complete automation capability for faster delivery. Our specialist engineers bring proven frameworks that compress days of testing into hours, giving your teams the speed they need to ship code quickly.

Why leading teams choose Planit's Test Automation as a Service

Modern delivery demands more than automation in theory. It needs a testing foundation that can be stood up quickly, managed continuously and kept ready for every release.

Release faster

Reduce the drag between development and release with managed automation that accelerates validation, strengthens release visibility and helps teams move from code complete to release-ready with confidence.

Spend with certainty

Move from upfront build costs and hidden maintenance effort to a predictable monthly model that is easier to budget, scale and sustain.

Stay release-ready

Keep automation aligned as your applications evolve, so tests stay useful, stable and ready for every release.

Build with focus

Free your teams from maintaining the machinery of automation, so they can stay focused on better software, better experiences and better outcomes.

Built for speed and impact from day one

Fully managed lifecycle

We handle tooling, execution, maintenance and reporting from end to end. No overheads. No re-training.

Proven frameworks and platforms

Built on Planit Playwright (TypeScript), our Voltage Framework and the DoT platform.

Dedicated QE specialists

Our people are trained for quality engineering. You get specialists working hands-on with your team, not generalists learning on the job.

Seamless CI/CD integration

Plugs straight into your existing GitHub and Jira workflows with full visibility.

Enterprise-grade from day one

You get a full operating model with governance and frameworks. No infrastructure burden. Just value from the very first week.

Where most automation goes wrong

Done well, automation can help accelerate delivery and drive faster releases. Unfortunately, most programs end up falling short because:

  • Coverage stalls after initial delivery
  • Frameworks become difficult to maintain
  • Skilled automation engineers are hard to find
  • Teams spend more time maintaining than testing
 

Test Automation as a Service (TAaaS) solves these problems. It delivers automation as a continuous service rather than a one-off capability. Our specialists build, run, maintain and scale it for you under one fixed monthly fee, with coverage that evolves alongside your applications.

How it works

Test Automation as a Service starts with a free, 1-day assessment and moves into a structured delivery model with one simple monthly cost. Each phases builds your maturity, increases coverage and unlocks better software.

What Automation can Unlock

Automation as a service is built to deliver measurable change. Here is what teams can achieve when proven frameworks, dedicated specialists and continuous delivery work together as one managed service.

80% faster regression

Teams have cut up to eight days from their regression cycles, freeing engineers to focus on new features instead of repetitive test runs.

Nightly automated runs

Test suites can run every night across multiple browsers and APIs, giving teams a fresh quality signal at the start of each day.

Lower tool overhead

Third-party tooling costs can often be reduced or rolled into the service, taking weight off your software bills and procurement teams.
