This article was making its way around the testosphere this morning to much approval. Although I question some of the numbers cited, I like the overall description a lot, and since I have been having so many discussions about QA on various projects, I thought it would be of interest to wikitech: It's a short read, "The Confusion Around QA" http://www.headspring.com/2012/03/the-confusion-around-qa-why-doesnt-the-in….
