Something that I absolutely hate about the IT industry:

When a feature is deployed the chain is like this:

Dev -> Testers -> QA -> Product Manager -> End User

But when things break in production and management wants to yell at the staff... only the devs get the heat and no one else, as if they weren't responsible for anything at all.

Really fucking hate it.

    There is a solution, test your own shit both automatically and manually before it ever lands in a QA's hands.

    Test for edge cases and weird shit as part of your process, understand the business users / customers and the bullshit they'll throw at your feature, and prepare for the worst.

    Yes it's more overhead, yes its a royal pain in the ass, and yes it slows down releases somewhat, and then you'll only have to deal with behavioural changes with the users and not rip out a feature, spin it around 40 times and shove it back in its hole upside down every time.

    @C0D4 this sounds like a solution for a world where pressure isn't put on devs for immediate results to justify high salaries instead of doing things correctly the first time

    @AvatarOfKaine change is slow, management will always want more, give it to them in quality not quantity.
