You know that testing and quality is important, right?
Okay, prove it.

Exactly how much money do you think testing saves? Yes, that’s right saves.

Testing is often thought of as a regrettable cost center, something that must be funded to avoid some dimly-understood “bad stuff that could happen.”

In fact, software testing and other quality assurance activities save money. Typically, every dollar spent on testing saves eight dollars in the long run.

In this One Key Idea session, Rex will demonstrate the use of cost of quality, a technique known for over 50 years, using a real world case study and a spreadsheet you can download and use that same day.
