>> Think of it as an example of why you should use modern software engineering methodologies and why the waterfall model should be shunned. No integration testing until a week or so before it was to go live? It is surprising that it is working as well as it is. Various techniques have their own pros and cons, and pros and cons in particular circumstances. Agile is not right for every project, and I'm not sure it is well suited for a mission critical project involving a significant number of individual contractors and developers. But since the projects I work on are small and at most deal with one other person writing code, it isn't my area of expertise. What works for me is actually testing the product before it is released.
