Most React Native teams skip e2e tests.
Until the first production crash.
We set up Maestro end-to-end tests for your React Native app — YAML flows, CI integration, team handoff — in two weeks, one flat fee.

Most React Native teams skip mobile end-to-end tests or wrestle with Detox flakiness for months. Maestro takes a different approach.
Readable flows
A login test is 10 lines of YAML — readable by product managers, not just engineers.
Stable by default
Built-in retry and wait logic means you stop chasing flaky tests at 2am.
One flow, two platforms
The same script runs on iOS and Android. No duplicated test code.
Cloud-ready
Runs locally, in GitHub Actions, or on Maestro Cloud — you pick.
Open source
No vendor lock-in. Your tests are YAML files in your repo.
A productized engagement
Fixed scope, fixed timeline. Two weeks from kickoff to handoff.
Maestro installed and wired
Wired to your existing React Native project — iOS and Android, simulator and device.
5 critical user journeys
Login, onboarding, payment, core feature — picked with you during kickoff.
CI/CD integration
GitHub Actions workflow that runs your flows on every PR, or Maestro Cloud if you prefer.
Runbook & README
Tailored to your team — how to add a flow, debug a failure, run locally.
Recorded handoff session
30-minute session recorded so your team can refer back whenever.
14 days of follow-up
Direct message me whenever a flow needs adjusting after handoff.
How the two weeks go
Kickoff & setup
60-minute call to pick the 5 user journeys. We install Maestro, write the first flows, run them green on your simulator.
CI & handoff
The remaining flows go in, GitHub Actions (or Maestro Cloud) is wired, runbook is written, and we record the handoff session.
Follow-up support
Two weeks of message-based support so your team can ship flow #6 without rebuilding the setup from scratch.
Who this is for
Good fit
- React Native apps already in production (or close to it) with no end-to-end coverage today.
- Teams burned by Detox flakiness who want a simpler stack.
- Founders and CTOs who need confidence to ship faster without a dedicated QA hire.
Not the right fit
- Apps still pre-MVP — wait until your core flows are stable.
- Test stack already humming. We don't fix what isn't broken.
- Exhaustive coverage (50+ flows, regression suites) — book a call for a custom scope.

Hi, I'm David
With Jacob Krupski (right) behind Maestro and Mazen Chami (left) from Infinite Red.
I've been shipping React Native apps since 2016 — through every breaking-change cycle, every Expo SDK, every New Architecture migration. I'm a top 20 contributor on Stack Overflow for React Native questions, and I curate a directory of React Native tools.
I picked Maestro early because it solves the right problem for mobile end-to-end: write a test in YAML, run it on iOS and Android, sleep at night. I've spent time directly with Jacob Krupski and the Mobile.dev team — so when you hit a weird edge case, you're not the first person hearing about it.
This page is a solo engagement at a flat fee. That means you're hiring me — not an agency, not a junior contractor. The same person who wrote your YAML is the one answering your DM when a flow goes red.

Common questions
One number, agreed upfront, covers everything in scope: setup, the 5 flows, CI wiring, runbook, recorded handoff session, and 14 days of post-handoff support. No hourly billing, no scope-creep invoices. If the work takes longer than 2 weeks because of something on our end, that's our problem, not yours. The exact number depends on your app's complexity — book a 30-minute call and we'll quote on the spot.
