When software fails, what does it actually cost?
In this episode, Jason Baum and Marcus Merrell are joined by Veronika Takmazyan, Senior Manager of Quality Engineering at Salesforce, and Chris Wallander, Principal SDET and Test Automation Architect at Taxwell, to tackle the complex issue of ensuring quality across the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).
Throughout the conversation, they touch on the importance of integrating testing at every stage of development and why quality must be a shared responsibility.
