ABT 343 – Melissa Eaden

This episode is dedicated entirely to the topic of how to transition from data oblivious to a data-centric organization. Very little Alan yelling at Brent, but a whole lot of Brent preaching goodness about how to use data to advance product quality.

First off, the audio on this episode has a few issues – we’ve taken steps to improve that in the future. The content includes Alan being Angry, the concept of “Feature Jam”, discussion about CDT, and a bit about data driven engineering.

Hey everyone… This time around, we talk a bit about Alan’s trip to Waterloo, and then we deep dive into Agile’s “longstanding and ongoing attack on the testing role” As you can expect, it’s a fun one.

Live, on the air, we reply to a tweet that kicks off oneofthethree.slack.com. And then Brent (inspired by Patrick Prill  aka @testpappy) asks Alan to define Quality, Testing, Test Cases, Testers, Integration Testing, and a few other terms that are difficult to define for most of the three, including (especially?) Alan.
