Ensuring that financial technology solutions are effective, safe, and comply with regulations is necessary in the changing technology field. The research introduces a new Quality Assurance framework that ensures that FinTech systems follow strict rules, process transactions instantly, and have the most secure possible systems. Using up-to-date automated testing, optimization techniques, and CI/CD practices, the approach boosts the system’s reliability, scalability, and quick response. Research shows that using this approach boosts defect detection results, speeds up development, and reduces risks, setting a new high standard for QA in FinTech. This study provides useful information for both experts and academics working on improving software quality and system dependability in high-stakes finance.
