QALingo is an app made by a QA professional who got tired of preparing for interviews with boring PDFs and long videos.
I decided to create a practical, fun, and effective method — a Duolingo for QA where you can review fundamentals, prep for ISTQB, and nail interview questions in just 5 minutes a day.
With the help of Q — that blue bug detective with the soul of James Bond and the mind of Sherlock Holmes — learning no longer feels like studying... it feels like solving interesting cases.
You are Watson. And I will help you solve the most inhospitable mysteries of QA.
"QAlemental, dear Watson."

Early feedback
The QA community is excited.
"I've been preparing for ISTQB for months with PDFs and YouTube. This is exactly what I needed — something that makes me come back every day."

Maria K.
Junior QA · Poland
"The interview prep drip feature alone would have saved me in my last job hunt. I always froze on 'how do you decide when to stop testing.'"

"I want this for my whole team. We onboard junior QAs every quarter and ramp-up is painful. This could cut it in half."

FAQ
Questions Q gets asked a lot.
The most common questions — answered with the precision of a seasoned detective.
Absolutely not. QALingo is designed for QA professionals at all levels — including those who have never written a line of code. Manual testing, documentation, test strategy, and interview prep are all code-free. The specialization tracks do introduce automation concepts, but they start from zero.
Not at all. ISTQB prep is one of the six learning levels — but QALingo also covers QA foundations, types of testing, documentation, Agile/Scrum, interview preparation, and specialization tracks. You can focus on exactly what you need.
PDFs and YouTube are passive. You read or watch — and forget. QALingo is active: you answer, you fail, Q tells you exactly why, and you retain it. The gamification (streaks, XP, badges) creates the daily habit that passive studying never does. Plus Q is significantly more sarcastic than a PDF.
With 10–15 minutes per day, most learners are exam-ready in 6–8 weeks. With 20+ minutes per day and consistent practice, some complete it in 3–4 weeks. The key variable is your daily streak — Q will make sure you don't skip days.
The current MVP is in English — the primary language of international remote QA roles. A Spanish version is planned for a future release. If Spanish is a priority for you, let us know in the feedback box below — it helps us prioritize.
Yes. The free tier includes Levels 0 and 1, 5 hearts per day, and 3 interview prep questions per week. The Pro plan ($12/month) unlocks everything — all 6 levels, unlimited hearts, the full ISTQB exam simulator, and daily interview drip with AI feedback.
Q is your QA detective guide — a blue bug detective with the soul of James Bond and the mind of Sherlock Holmes. Q is sharp, occasionally snarky, and always right. When you answer correctly, Q is impressed. When you don't — well, Q has opinions. You are Watson. Q will make sure you earn that title.
