note chromatic <blockquote><p><em>To my mind, software goes from a development build, to a milestone build and finally to a release build.</em></p> <p>...</p> <p><em>Each of those stages needs more rigorous QA than the previous level.</em></p></blockquote> <p>Why?</p> <p>I prefer to move QA into the development process itself (from the design stage through implementation and to exploratory testing) in order to <em>avoid</em> all of the falderol around different types of builds.</p> 674470 674571
