Introduction In FinTech SaaS products, integration testing isn’t just a phase — it’s a survival skill. Your platform connects with banks, KYC vendors, tax engines, CRMs, accounting tools, and more. But these integrations are where things most often break — and where QA teams face the greatest complexity. This article walks through the most common…

Introduction Modern FinTech platforms aren’t monoliths — they’re distributed systems. Payments flow through queues. KYC verifications rely on third-party services. Databases replicate across regions. Microservices own specific domains. In this kind of architecture, ensuring data consistency becomes a challenge — and a core QA responsibility. This article explains how to test for data consistency across…

Introduction When your FinTech app handles multiple currencies and tax jurisdictions, the margin for error shrinks dramatically. A misplaced decimal, outdated exchange rate, or incorrect tax rule can lead to financial loss, compliance violations, or broken user trust. Testing these features isn’t just about UI. It requires a deep understanding of how currencies, conversions, and…

Introduction Accounts Payable (AP) automation platforms are designed to streamline one of the most error-prone parts of business operations: invoice collection, approval, and payment. But when something breaks — a miscalculated tax, a missed approval, a duplicate payment — it can disrupt vendor relationships, accounting accuracy, and cash flow. This article outlines the key functional…

Introduction Most modern FinTech platforms offer both web and mobile interfaces — and users expect a seamless experience across both. But the underlying workflows — like payments, invoicing, KYC, and tax — are rarely simple. Testing them isn’t just about checking UI layouts. It’s about validating that the same data, logic, and outcomes behave correctly…

Introduction APIs are the backbone of every FinTech product — especially when it comes to payments and banking integrations. Whether you’re working with Stripe, Plaid, Wise, or a custom bank interface, your product is only as reliable as your API layer. That’s why API testing in FinTech requires more than just checking status codes. It…

Introduction KYC, AML, and tax compliance aren’t optional for FinTech platforms — they’re required. And poorly tested compliance workflows can trigger failed audits, user onboarding issues, blocked transactions, or even financial penalties. QA teams can’t treat these flows like regular features. They involve complex logic, third-party integrations, and ever-changing regulatory rules. This article breaks down…

Introduction Payment and invoicing systems sit at the core of most FinTech platforms. If they fail, you don’t just get bugs — you get financial loss, broken trust, and possibly legal problems. End-to-end (E2E) testing ensures that your entire flow — from user action to system response — works exactly as expected, across frontend, backend,…

Introduction Automated tests are great at checking what you already know. But what about the bugs hiding in unexpected edge cases — the ones your test scripts never imagined? That’s where exploratory testing comes in. Especially in financial applications — where the cost of undetected bugs is high — exploratory testing helps uncover issues automation…

Introduction In FinTech, small changes can break big things — silently. Whether it’s a new dashboard feature or a small API tweak, you can’t afford regressions in critical financial logic. That’s where your regression suite comes in. A regression suite ensures that new updates don’t break what was already working. In FinTech, where trust and…
