Biot you made some excellent points. The pricing at the moment is definitely exploratory. Our goal is to limit the number of people we sign up at this level and learn from the process. I think your idea of limiting the amount of tests is great and something we will definitely explore. When we were running the service for clients manually we did something similar.

A friend of mine hacked together something like this with mechanical turk. This seems like a much more polished version.

I hope you succeed! When I launch our product will definitely try your service out.

"Tests run on Launch plan take 2-12 hours to execute." - i normally run my test suite several times when developing and i'm sure i'm not the only developer that does this. having to wait 2-12 hours per run is completely incomprehensible and unacceptable. with that in mind, how and where do you see a service like this fitting into the development life-cycle? my thinking is that this a late stage April Fools day prank.

I guess this is more for testing a built application, by actual users, which is not easily automated using a test suite. Totally acceptable in my opinion.
