By Design Won't Fix Working As Intended Declaring Bug Bankruptcy Google doesn't test. Google relies on the public to test its software and even then most bugs don't get addressed. If the bug is a gap in the spec or open to interpretation it won't get fixed. Spec bugs are not allowed. The reason that Google has such a high hiring bar is that most of its processes run open-loop and it relies on having smart thorough people to prevent the large swath of issues from being created in the first place.

But there is a large swath of issues. Just look at Google's public bug trackers. And Google's atrocious practice of auto-closing old bug reports partially covers up how many issues there really are.
