Buggy Software Liability

CNN.com – Spread of buggy software raises new questions – Apr. 27, 2003 – While I think getting into product liability lawsuits for software will likely put a major dent in the industry, I do think that better software quality is not only possible but is cheaper. Test Driven Development, combined with other solid practices, has the power to reduce the number of defects in software and prevent the defects from coming back. There are a lot of people still developing software “the old fashioned way”, but I do think that TDD will only grow in popularity from where it is now.
