QA Can’t Fix What Bad Design and Culture Broke

Throwing more testing at a broken system won’t make it better. Some organisations may hope that Quality Assurance (QA) can compensate for bad design and dysfunctional development culture – but it won’t. This talk explores how software turns into unmanageable legacy code through bad processes driven by wrong incentives.
We’ll then uncover the fundamental shifts needed to break free from this cycle to improve the quality of such legacy systems and how teams in the future can build in quality from the start to never have to deal with legacy code again.
