Welcome to episode 26 of Inside The Outer Loop. In this episode, Rich Jordan and James Walker are joined by special guest Nishil Patel, CEO & Founder of BetterBugs. Together, they discuss the evolution of quality engineering and the importance of taking a holistic approach to approach outer loop quality.

Nishil Patel starts the conversation by explaining how Betterbug helps improve QA productivity by streamlining bug reporting and providing developers with all the necessary information to debug issues. Bug reporting and feedback collection enhances QA productivity and improves collaboration between testers and developers. It allows testers to record bugs and provide detailed information for debugging, making the bug triaging process more efficient.

The conversation between James and Nishil highlights the importance of proactive quality assurance and the role of tools like Betterbug in supporting the quality engineering process. The team then explores the challenges of achieving developer productivity and the need for organizations to focus on the outer loop of software delivery. 

The team concludes by stating the key to improving quality is not just tooling, but also process optimization and a focus on people. Organizations should identify the gaps in their SDLC and address them through process improvement and collaboration. The goal is to augment people's abilities and productivity, rather than replacing them with technology.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
