Too Many Bugs, Not Enough Developers
From Web2.0 Journal
More software testing words of wisdom from my fortune cookie. Like the last one I blogged about, this quote captures a fundamental truth about the testing profession: Many of the bugs you find will never be fixed.
This blog post helps explain why:
“We live in a world where there just aren’t enough software developers. No matter what stage of development you may be at, your team could always use just a few more developers to build that great feature marketing wants, fix that extra bug that’s been nagging technical support, help build some tools so that software development can work more efficiently, etc. But sadly, we live in a world of constraints and that means that the marginal cost of any investment has to be paired with the marginal benefit it will bring.
