How agorapulse gave quality back to their product team
From zero automated test coverage to 80% with PMs writing and running their own tests in under two hours of onboarding.
The Challenge
QA was a bottleneck knowledge stuck in one team : Manual and automation testers couldn’t keep pace with daily releases. PMs knew what needed testing but had no way to act on it. With zero automated coverage, quality progress stalled completely.
The Solution
Natural language testing, owned by the people who know the product : Thunders let PMs write executable tests in plain language no code, no handoffs, no engineering bottleneck. Tests ran immediately after being written, and the whole team was live in two hours.

Before Thunders
QA team doing everything by hand : Agorapulse runs a fast-moving social media management platform serving brands and enterprises. Their engineering teams ship constantly, but QA relied on a mixed team of manual and automation testers who couldn't scale with the pace. The PMs who best understood the product had no tools to act on that knowledge.
Implementation
One month of testing, then two hours to deploy : The Head of Engineering ran a one-month internal trial before rolling Thunders out to the product team. The transition was nearly frictionless. Thunders works entirely in natural language, so there was no technical barrier. After a two-hour onboarding, the full PM team was independently writing and executing tests. PMs now own the entire test process: defining scenarios, writing tests, and maintaining them.
It’s really worth trying and letting yourself be surprised by just how easy it is to use.

Result
80% test coverage in six weeks, a milestone they'd never reached before : Within six weeks of the PM team using Thunders, Agorapulse covered roughly 80% of their test scope, a milestone previously out of reach. The shift unlocked a fundamentally faster, more autonomous quality process. No extra automation engineers required.
