Its Safer to Walk a Tightrope Without a Net - Enabling Truly Agile Cross Functional Teams by Refusing to Build a QA Department (A case study)

This case study will look at the practical steps we took to build a culture of quality within WHMCS Engineering and highlight concrete steps you can take in your department to shape the culture of quality...
