Software Bugs
March 10th, 2008
A really interesting article in The Economist’s Technology Quarterly this week about how computer programmers use a range of tools to try and cut down on the number of bugs. “An industry rule of thumb is that a bug which costs $1 to fix on the programmer’s desktop costs $100 to fix once it is incorporated into a build, and thousands of dollars if it is identified only after the software has been deployed in the field.”
