    A seamless society is one where
    the world is allowed to stay
    complicated and in which people
    can live connected, without being
    separated by borders.

    When people's safety and security
    is threatened, society responds by
    growing more simplified and
    putting up new borders.

  7. 7
    To create a seamless society, we
    need to fight anything that would
    threaten that safety and security.

    Goal of the QA Policy
    QA becomes the glue holding teams together.
    QA does everything for the sake of quality and value.
    QA has dialogue with teams about the product and
    projects.

    What is “quality”?
    On every project, the meaning of “quality” is constantly changing.
    QA aims to implement the best practices amidst a definition of quality that is always
    changing depending on the conditions at that time.
    Value for the user
    The immutable definition: “Quality” means value for the
    user.
    What’s quality?

    ・・・Reliability of the individual components

    An approach that raises the total reliability of QA by leveraging the sum total processes of
    the company (everybody) rather than relying solely on specific processes (tests, etc.)

    What is agile testing?

    View Slide

  13. 13
    What we care about
    It’s more about constantly
    running tests rather than
    running tests right at the
    end.
    It’s more about preventing
    bugs from occurring than
    finding bugs.
    It’s more about testing
    value rather than
    checking functionality.
    It’s more about creating
    the best system possible
    than aiming to break it.
    It’s more about proactively
    taking responsibility as a team
    rather than standing around
    and wondering whose
    responsibility it is.

    Implementing adequate testing for release
    No failures capable of causing a major incident
    01
    Creates sufficient value as-is
    02
    Product value exceeds residual risk
    03
    Gains from a timely release would exceed damage
    from a delayed release
    04
    Once the team has the groundwork in place enabling them to sufficiently ensure the
    product (or feature) operates in the production environment according to the acceptance
    criteria, provides value, and generates profit, they can finally release the product.

    exploring what it does
