An Objective Measurement of Quality

Today I began work as an IT QA tester for Glaxo SmithKline. It is an information technology quality assurance culture informed by nearly one hundred fifty years of pharmaceutical quality assurance. The development environment is Siebel, the testing tool is Mercury Quality Center, and the document of choice is the Excel spreadsheet.



I am happy to say that things ended at Visual Sports on a fairly good note. They still have a pressing need for interactive content to drive system sales, and I still have a pressing need to produce commercially successful video games. For my part, the primary organizational vehicle for doing so will be the Toronto chapter of the Independent Game Developers Association. (When doing a web search, be sure and get the order of the letters igda right, or you will end up with defense contractors with the acronym igda.)
