uTest

The professional network for testers

Visit uTest

uTest is a community platform for freelance software testers, operated as the independent testing community within Applause App Quality, Inc. It connects testers with paid testing projects from client companies, while also providing training and a community space for skill development and peer connection.

The platform runs in any browser and includes a project board for browsing assignments, test case management, collaboration with other testers, and direct feedback to clients. It integrates with tools such as Jira for bug reporting, and projects span functional and user experience testing, artificial intelligence, digital payments, and accessibility. A mobile app for iOS and Android lets testers review invites, update their profile, and claim test cases. The uTest Academy offers training for building testing skills.

uTest is aimed at individuals interested in freelance software testing work, including those developing their skills. Signing up is free, and testers indicate interest in projects they qualify for; compensation varies by project and region. Projects are mostly remote, with occasional on-site opportunities.
