Exploratory testing for UK banks, fintechs and regulated firms

In short

Charter-led exploratory testing that finds the bugs scripts never will. You need it on new features, edge-case journeys and any change that affects money or trust. Charters, session notes, defect log and risk-ranked report.

What exploratory testing actually is

Charter-led exploratory testing that finds the bugs scripts never will.

When you need it

On new features, edge-case journeys and any change that affects money or trust.

What Forth delivers

Charters, session notes, defect log and risk-ranked report.

The pitfall we don't repeat

Calling unstructured clicking 'exploratory testing' — there's a difference.

How we engage

Fixed-scope discovery, a 30-day pilot against a real workload, and a continuation engagement with named UK-based engineers. Every artefact is version-controlled and ready for second-line review.

Frequently asked questions

Do you deliver exploratory testing as a managed service?

Yes. We can run exploratory testing as a one-off engagement, as part of a programme, or as a continuous managed service with monthly reporting.

Can you work alongside our in-house team?

Yes — most engagements augment an existing team. We work to your tooling, your standards and your release process, not ours.

What evidence do you produce for our auditors?

Every engagement produces traceable evidence: scenarios mapped to requirements or controls, run logs, defect history and a sign-off pack your second line can use without rework.

How fast can you start?

Most exploratory testing engagements start within 2-4 weeks of a signed SoW, faster if there's an existing supplier framework in place.
