Unfortunately were inherited from TQM (Total Quality Management)

We did (try) to tweak those concepts to adjust for software,

However looking back at the path we took, I strongly feel it was not the right one

We are nowhere near the results TQM had in manufacturing

We can’t quantify the quality of a product nor can we measure the impact of testing as accurately

IMHO this has lead the testing community to be a silent spectator in the tech industry

A corner stone to our success would be to quantify the results of testing efforts

There are pockets of folks thinking and working towards it,

But the momentum and impact we need is not there yet.

So let’s begin #RedefiningSoftwareQuality through providing #BusinessValue
