Games Testing Gets A Shot Of Testosterone

Games testing is to get a much needed shot of testosterone (as well as professionalism and experience), with the formation of Testology by Andy Robson, formerly of Lionhead Studios!

Based in Aldershot Testology will offer a top notch Quality Assurance Games Consultancy and testing staff placements to the entire game industry.

Andy Robson is one of the game industry's most experienced games testing managers having started in the field in 1994 with Bullfrog Productions. In 1998 Andy joined Peter Molyneux to head up Lionhead's Test department which he ran until he left the company to set up Testology last month. He has worked on over 30 top ten titles including Fable, Black & White, Dungeon Keeper, Theme Park and The Movies and has managed several testing teams concurrently. He has worked with the industry's top publishers EA, Microsoft and Activision liaising with their QA departments which all compromised of 100 + testers. With all this experience he has gained huge respect for his honest approach to games testing and his attention to detail.

Testology will offer a number of different services including on and off-site testing, gameplay consultancy, functionality testing and manual /in game text copy proofing and feedback.

Announcing the formation of Testology Andy Robson said "There is a real need for a quality assurance game consultancy which can offer a top notch service at a fair price. My team and I have a vast experience of testing games that is unparalled in the games industry. More importantly we all love games and can give objective suggestions for enhancing gameplay. The games industry has really changed during the past twelve years and it makes sound economic sense for developers and publishers to outsource this service. Testology is hugely experienced, highly professional and fired up for providing a thorough and efficient service."
