Because there is little incentive for devs to police themselves and there could be multiple dev teams spanning client/server that needs to be integrated and tested.
A slightly better org to own QA would be product team.
- alistairSH 5y agoEach team should have some QA resources. Server can be tested independent of client, etc. Then the QA staff work together to ensure appropriate systems integration tests. Siloed QA team runs the risk of becoming a bottleneck as work from disparate teams comes through.
- damontal 5y agoSure there’s incentives for devs to police themselves. I’d rather catch problems early than have a to deal with a shitstorm from pissed off product owners and VPs when bugs are found in production. But our QA person is on another team. I’d much rather have them on my team.
