QA Isn’t the Fix
Dedicated QA creates more problems than it solves.
When a dev team owns quality, accountability stays in the right hands. Bugs are fewer, fixes are faster and processes tighten.
Introducing dedicated QA shifts that balance.
Developers grow complacent, relying on testers to catch mistakes. Tools diverge, creating inefficiencies. QA often duplicates what devs should already handle.
Quality isn't a separate role. It's a shared responsibility embedded in every line of code.
