In my 25 years as a developer, when QA gets rewarded for meeting quotas or the number of bugs reported, it has never worked out well. It creates competition and friction between the testers and developers when they should be working together with the same goal in mind.,(reply>), As a Dev with just 4 years of experience, bug quotas are just stupid, they serve no purpose and incorages QA to just find little things that would even made it in on the initial pass disregarding their established Risk matrix or worst, modifying it to suit their objective,(reply>), This reminds me of the quotas the USSR used to run their trains. Operators and managers were rewarded for the more weight they moved by distance. So they would fill up a train with bricks on one side of the country, weigh it, then move it to the other side and unload the bricks and weigh it again... Then another train would pick up those bricks and move them back.<br><br>This is why systems get screwed up by quotas.,(reply>), Any games industry professional should know that setting quoatas for bug reports is like asking a police department to reach specific arrest goals. It's obviously not going to get you what you actually want.
