Your AI agents write the code. Who makes sure it won't break production?

A dedicated team of four builds it, runs it and keeps it current as your product and your agents change. It lives in your repo and your CI, for a fixed $7k a month.

Week 1: first protection

Week 2 and beyond: broader and deeper

• What's protected?

  A living map of your modules, APIs, journeys and infrastructure, and how well each is covered.

• What just ran?

  Every execution with its commit, branch, environment, duration and result.

• What failed, and why?

  Evidence, screenshots, trace links, affected components and a suspected cause.

• Can we release?

  Required gates, known failures and untested changes in one view.

• What's happening in production?

  Synthetic checks and key alerts, linked to your own monitoring tools.

• Are we getting safer?

  Trends in coverage, escaped defects, flaky tests and execution time.

Coverage maps, release readiness and trends are part of it. It preserves your source reports and links back to them, so you keep every tool you already use.

How it fits together

Results from the tools you already use flow into one place you own, and back out to your engineers and your coding agents.

• 1

  QA Architect and Lead

  Discovery, the risk register, test strategy, release gates, and your main point of contact.

• 2

  Automation Engineer, UI and end-to-end

  Critical journeys, browser tests, fixtures and functional regression.

• 3

  Automation Engineer, API and integration

  Unit-test improvements, API, contract, integration, database and background-job checks.

• 4

  Reliability Engineer

  CI speed, performance, security automation, synthetic monitors and dashboard integrations.

Four layers, so feedback stays fast

Instead of one enormous CI job, checks are split by speed, cost and risk.

1. Layer 1

   PR Guard

   BlockingTarget: 2 to 5 minutes

   Lint and type checks, fast unit tests, API contracts, targeted integration tests, security scans and critical smoke checks.

2. Layer 2

   Merge and Deployment Guard

   Blocking where justifiedTarget: 5 to 15 minutes

   Broader integration tests, critical end-to-end journeys, migration checks, deployment smoke tests and essential AI regression checks.

3. Layer 3

   Scheduled

   Non-blocking by defaultHourly, nightly or weekly

   Full regression, browser compatibility, deeper security analysis, extensive AI evaluations, and load, stress and soak tests.

4. Layer 4

   Production Watch

   ContinuousNear real time

   Synthetic checks on key journeys, availability, error rates, latency, saturation, and alerts with clear escalation routes.

Targets, not guarantees. A large legacy monolith may need a different baseline, and riskier changes can trigger a broader suite before merge.

How we choose what to test next

Every journey, component and missing check goes into a Risk Coverage Register, scored from 1 to 5 on four factors.

We refine the weights with your incident data and engineering feedback, and tag each risk with the check type, cost and effort needed. High-priority gaps with cheap fixes get done quickly, and failures involving payments, security or data loss can override the numbers.

What the Command Center is built on

You own your test code, data, execution history, configurations and deployed dashboard. PI Labs maintains the standard integration software under agreed license terms. It is built once as a reusable platform and configured per customer, and it preserves your source reports and links back to them.

The outputs below are generated from our harness template. They are not client data.
