Or just have a zero tolerance for bugs.

[stubish]

I don't know if you mean fixing every bug, or not creating bugs in the first place, but either way it is just the case where the teams bug fixing velocity is greater or equal to the rate of incoming bugs.

That's effectively having a zero tolerance for functionality too.

[tonyedgecombe]

No it isn’t, in fact you could argue a better quality code base supports faster development.

[gok]

You have some examples of bug-free software that does useful work?

[tonyedgecombe]

That's not what I was suggesting and I think you know that.

[gok]

What are you suggesting? I truly don't know what "zero tolerance for bugs" could mean.
