Renew your legacy code
Avoid expensive legacy rewrites by renovating existing systems and leveraging innovative uses of automated test tools.
Rewrites are costly, and generally don’t lead to the outcome promised. Don't tear down your house—remodel! With legacy remediation our testing experience helps safely factor your legacy codebase while avoiding a costly rewrite.
Test Double employs a variety of techniques using automated testing to remediate legacy systems. Refactor with confidence, knowing your code is maintainable for years to come.
Considering a rewrite? There’s a better way.
Refresh your system!
Upgrade your key applications
Upgrade to secure, stable, and supported versions of the frameworks, libraries, and tooling your mission-critical applications rely on.
Clients like GitHub, Gusto, Zendesk and more have worked with Test Double to upgrade existing Rails applications forward. We have built a body of knowledge around how to upgrade and avoid risks. So you get more than just a predictable upgrade plan. We lead by example and mentor your team on staying updated in the future.
See how this approach paid off for Gusto.
Unsupported, insecure dependencies?
Update them!
Scale with holistic DevOps
Evolve your DevOps practice, achieving more predictable costs and observable infrastructure.
We help cut cloud costs, increase security, and uncover more efficient processes so you can scale up sustainably in the right way at the right time.
We go further, by making sure your DevOps tooling is understood and can be managed by everyone on the team. Your team and infrastructure is more sustainable and predictable. You gain visibility for better decision making at all levels.
Wasting too much time on infrastructure?
Automate it!
Flexible Infrastructure
We seek first to understand your needs, and then design a solution that’s the right fit. We even train team members, so they can easily manage the platform and pipeline long after we’re gone.
- High Availability Infrastructure
- Disaster Recovery
- Infrastructure as Code
- CI/CD Pipelines
- Security Assessments
Launch your product effectively
You provide the vision—we make it happen with product delivery.
We've helped both start-up clients and existing brands launch MVPs and embrace change by rapidly building, gathering feedback, and adjusting priorities as we go. You don't have to shoulder the load, because we bridge the gap between developers and business stakeholders.
You can even rely on us to be the start of your engineering team. We assist with mentoring and recruiting, so your team can easily maintain the system long after we’re gone.

Build your team thoughtfully
Our mission is to improve the way the world builds software. For our recruitment team, this means improving the broken recruitment experience in tech and beyond. We've helped clients with both senior engineering and leadership placements, plus improved processes for lasting impact to source better talent more efficiently.
You want to find engineers who care about maintainable code, automated testing and scalable architecture. But it takes a lot of time and resources to attract, interview, and hire people with senior engineering skills who are also aligned with your team and company culture.
Our strong reputation in the industry has created a vast network of software developers and engineering leaders, and we’ve expanded our offerings to include recruitment and interview support for our clients.
