Someone needs to prioritize bugs along with the customer so they know the trade-off: fix the bug or get a shiny new bike. Pushing the decision to the customer makes them aware of these issues. Once the distractions start affecting the bottom line, you'll get pressure to stabilize the product. This gives you leverage to slow down the release schedule so you can more thoroughly test things. Again, give the customer a choice: stabilize the product or accept monetary losses. Profit always seems to win. | |
