Same here. We're a casual agile (note the lower case 'a' there) shop. We did have the grand poobah once try to start code reviews, in which he was going to have the hardware engineers review our code, and we were going to review the hardware engineers' designs. We left his body in the stocks until the local flock of turkey vultures had picked his skeleton clean.

Ah, but did you notice who was going to review what: this moron wanted hardware guys to review software, and vice versa. He must have been hit with a larger than usual stupid stick that day.

There are three main aspects to any project: -Quality -Features -Delivery Date One of these will vary. You decide.

A long time ago I saw a quote that said something like "Fast. Cheap. Good. Pick two." Yours makes more sense for my situation since I'm salaried and "cheap" isn't a factor. I'll be using this from now on. Thanks!

With a lot of bugs and no unit tests.
That is how we roll out projects too. They finish on unrealistic schedules and no one seems to care. They just assign the inevitable problems that plague the project like it is just another day at the office. It seems the new modus operandi in these times of low budgets and under staffed projects. I believe you can have it fast, you can have it right, you can have it cheap; choose two. :doh:
