In contrast, consider a team that is focused on preventing defects in the first place. They rigorously apply techniques like TDD, ATDD, and BDD to accomplish this. Whenever a defect does slip through, the team pauses all other work and addresses it immediately. This reflects a fundamentally different mindset: no reliance on bug-tracking tools, and no time wasted on defect reporting. But more importantly, a focus on building in quality. (2/2)

The way a team handles defects reveals much about how their organisation approaches quality. When every defect must be added to a sprawling backlog with excruciatingly detailed information, it often signals a codebase burdened by technical debt and a product suffering from the consequences of that. Some of these defects may (or may never) be fixed in so-called “stabilisation sprints.” (1/2)

Checking an LLM's work is a systemic, not an individual, problem.

Only a culture of design critique can prevent sloppy AI-generated problem definitions.

KI-Code-Qualität wird durch SWE-Benchmark überschätzt: Profis lehnen jeden zweiten "bestandenen" Vorschlag ab

Rund die Hälfte der KI-Code-Lösungen, die den bekannten SWE-bench-Benchmark bestehen, würde von echten Projektverantwortlichen abgelehnt. Das zeigt eine neue Untersuchung der Forschungsorganisation METR.

Let’s be real: Most people think our job is just finding bugs.

But for those of us in the trenches, it’s much deeper than that. It’s a mix of psychology, strategy, and a relentless empathy for the person on the other side of the screen.

When we talk about 30 QA Terms, we aren't just reciting a textbook. We are using a shared language to protect the product.
