The idea behind agile is to sell you training and later consulting once your organisation fails to adopt it in any meaningful way because it’s principles are so vague your culture, will, get it wrong.
It’s saying that the people behind the agile alliance and so on aren’t actually working in software engineering. Many haven’t since 20 years before the birth of Python. They’re also famous for handling any form of criticism with “you didn’t understand our principles”. Which to be fair is often completely correct, but maybe it’s because those principles are horrendous?
What it has lead to is an industry full of pseudo-jobbers. As others point out… your software engineers, can, do the work if you let them. Even if you don’t, you have no guarantee that your added personal actually catches errors like the ones in this article. Because human testers usually aren’t part of the team in any meaningful way.
