Lisa’s Take
The right amount of software quality requires a
commitment and investment by the business and the
development team.
Quality depends on having the right people and allowing
them to do good work, by providing the right amount of
support, a learning culture and energizing people with
intrinsic motivators.
Testing is not a phase, and the whole development team –
not the testers or “QA” group – is responsible for quality.
