Tezza Business Solutions Ltd is a leading Software Quality Assurance and Testing multinational with a regional office in Lagos, Nigeria.

We are a Software Quality Assurance and Testing Services provider. Our primary goal is to be the "go to" Quality Assurance & Software Testing company in East and West Africa while developing offshore resources to fill test automation positions (and other hard to find software testing capabilities) in the North America and European markets.

We are very passionate about our people. We believe that the quality of software applications is extremely dependent on the processes employed in building the applications. Same principle applies with our people; we believe very strongly in placing the right people in the right seats on our bus as our overall success is dependent on the quality of the people we hire.

We put our beliefs to work by employing a rigorous recruiting process (that involves Aptitude tests, HR Interview, and Technical Interview) to find the BEST candidates, coupled with hands-on training that is based on real life scenarios within “live” projects.
