About
Almost every guide on how to choose a QA vendor is written by a QA vendor. This toolkit is written for the buyer and stays vendor-neutral.

Independence and funding
This site names no vendor and takes no money from any vendor. No affiliate links, no sponsored content, no paid placement. Every tool runs in your browser and sends nothing to us.
This is a personal project of the publisher and carries no advertising.
Vendor relationships of the publisher are listed on the disclosures page. How the framework is sourced and versioned is on the methodology page.
What the site is
Eight tools for the weeks between deciding to outsource testing and signing a contract: an RFP generator, a vendor questionnaire, a scoring template, a due-diligence checklist, a cost model, contract clauses, a reference-call script and a proposal red-flag checker. Each produces a document you can download and edit. Guides explain each step from the buyer's side.
The site is static. There are no accounts, and nothing you type into a tool leaves your browser.
