[QUOTE="Sacrosanct, post: 7928750, member: 15700"] Some of them do. Others follow the actual methodology. As I said, because some companies don't follow methodology doesn't mean that the terms and definitions of the methodology change. It just means those companies aren't following it. And as I also said upthread, the problem with that is because it increases risk, and we end up with what we had happen. Something broke core code* and they had to scramble to try to fix it. What people seem to be glossing over is that the issue isn't this one error. A lot of folks are getting hung up on "this didn't ruin the world did it? No big deal!" The issue is that it seems to imply that they aren't following industry standards, and that brings risk and poor quality. [I]That's[/I] the concern. That they have shoddy processes for quality control. Not just this one issue. But the root cause. There is a reason why we have industry standards for quality assurance testing. * and yes, beta is core code. By literally the definition of what beta is. and they said that core code should not be impacted, which it was. [/QUOTE]
