That makes sense. I've found automated testing to be incredibly useful and just necessary to be able to really rework code well. Not using automated testing and having a really fast release cycle seems like a recipe for a lot of pain (and they said that testing was taking them forever).

I asked them about their testing - turns out they were looking to have someone help them develop a way to test their software (so at least they want to do it).

I wish I'd asked them the two questions you listed at the end, they are much better questions than a bland "do you test?". They did break the build some times.

Oh. They actually want to step up their testing game? So why this thread? <g>

btw, I am glad no one asked the alternative to testing -- it would have been more a textbook on software development. <g>
