ProdPerfect<\/a>, a New York-based startup focused on automating QA testing for web apps, has announced the close of a $2.6 million Seed round co-led by Eniac Ventures and Fika Ventures, with participation from Entrepreneurs Roundtable Accelerator.<\/p>\n

ProdPerfect <\/a> started when co-founder and CEO Dan Wilding was VP of engineering at WeSpire, where he saw firsthand the pain points associated with web application QA testing. Whereas there were all kinds of product analytics tools for product engineers, the same data wasn\u2019t there for the engineers building QA tests that are meant to replicate user behavior.<\/p>\n

He imagined a platform that would use live data around real user behavior to formulate these QA tests. That\u2019s how ProdPerfect was born. The platform sees user behavior, builds tests and delivers analysis to the engineering team.<\/p>\n

The service continues to build on what it knows about a product, and can then simulate new tests when new features are added based on aggregated flows of common user behavior. This data doesn\u2019t track any information about the user, but rather anonymizes them and watches how they move through the web app. The hope is that ProdPerfect gives engineers the opportunity to keep building the product instead of spreading their resources across building a QA testing suite.<\/p>\n

The new funding will go toward expanding the sales team and further building out the product. For now, ProdPerfect simply offers functional testing, which uses a single virtual user to test whether a product breaks or not. But president and co-founder Erik Fogg sees an opportunity to build more integrated testing, including performance, security and localization testing.<\/p>\n

Fogg says the company is growing 40 percent month over month in booked revenue.<\/p>\n

The company says it can deploy within two weeks of installing a data tracker, and provide more than 70 percent coverage of all user interactions with 95 percent+ test stability.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe greatest challenge is going to be finding people who share our companies\u2019 core values and are of high enough talent, ambition and autonomy in part because our hiring road map is so steep,\u201d said Fogg. \u201cGrowing pains catch up with businesses as a team expands quickly and we have to make sure that we\u2019re picky and that we reinforce the values we have.\u201d<\/p>\n
