Hello

I'm Lucy.I am a QA professional with 13 years of experience on a wide variety of platforms and projects. I have built my career on the commitment to deliver end-users the best possible experience, and am a staunch advocate for quality. Currently available for short-term, sporadic, or one-off testing passes on games and software.

Previous projects

I have experience testing games and software on Windows PC, Mac, iOS, tvOS, Android, Magic Leap, Oculus Quest, and Nintendo platforms -- everything from RPGs to puzzle games to music games to proprietary speaker control apps. I have worked on some of the biggest franchises out there, and some of the littlest indie projects, for teams of 100+ testers strong or as the sole QA professional. I also have experience doing text editing (for spelling, grammar, context, and placement) for projects large and small. Below is a small sample of previous notable projects.

About

Are you a small indie studio with no budget for a dedicated QA employee? Are your casual play testers writing bugs that leave a lot to be desired and are missing critical information? Has skipping testing resulted in releasing a product with obvious bugs? Are you ready to spin up a QA department and not sure where to start? I'm here to help! I am a New Zealand-based American citizen looking for remote opportunities, or in-office in the Wellington, NZ region. For an extra morale boost, I come equipped with an office dog (shameless plug: @beatrixthepom). Currently only available for short-term or one-off sessions. I'm booked through the typical M-F days, but if you need either one-off or occasional/sporadic QA support, let's chat!What I can help you with:
+ Bug writing/tracking/regression testing
+ Ad-hoc testing
+ Coordinating and facilitating play testing, and compiling results into actionable items
+ Test case and test plan writing
+ Text editing for projects of any size
+ Establishing best practices for future QA
What you can expect from me:
+ Highly reliable and punctual
+ Excellent communication and responsiveness
+ Experience with everything from mobile to augmented reality
+ Detailed bugs with reliable reproduction steps
+ Ability to work in a variety of bug tracking/test case management/project management software

RATES

I aim for my rates to be affordable and accessible, and they vary depending on your needs and the project length. If your project needs some QA time, please don't hesitate to contact me and I am happy to negotiate something that works for all parties.
