Overview
Polity is an enterprise-grade platform built on a seven-microservice architecture. Complex, distributed, and held to the standards that enterprise clients demand. The kind of system where QA is not optional.
The Challenge
We inherited a fragmented testing landscape across seven services where every component had different tooling, different maturity, and different failure modes. The work had to unify all of that into a coherent quality model while simultaneously resolving hundreds of bugs, supervising multiple vendors, and supporting active feature delivery, over 1.5 years.
What We Did
We led QA engineering over 1.5 years: designed and rolled out the Unified Testing Infrastructure (UTI) across all seven microservices, built the E2E strategy, reduced test flakiness, drove CI/CD reliability, supervised vendor and contributor quality, triaged and resolved hundreds of bugs, and produced crash reports, pentesting reports, and Enterprise Lite documentation.
Outcomes
What We Learned
Quality across distributed systems isn't a tooling problem. It's a coordination problem. Getting seven services, multiple vendors, and continuous delivery to hold to the same standard required as much process design as it did technical implementation. The UTI was the output, but the real work was building alignment.
