DaVita: a Quality Culture Focused on Flawless Execution

Monday October 11th 2010 12am Rated 7 3 Comments ST&QA Magazine Teams Metrics Life Cycle Development Process Software Testing Training Tools
DaVita is a unique place to work. The word DaVita means “giving life,” and when asked what our teammates (employees) do for a living, each is proud to respond with a simple answer: “I give life.” Providing dialysis treatments to one in three Americans with kidney failure only scratches the surface of what we do. We are a community first and a company second, and while we promote a healthy balance of work and life, we also expect the highest level of performance in everything we do. We believe the work that each of our teammates does directly affect the lives of our chronically ill patients – and that includes our IT team.

Thursday June 3rd 2010 10am Rated 4 2 Comments Security Software Test and QA Testing Best Practices Process Regression Tools
Trying to introduce Security Testing into your software process can be tricky, just like teaching an old dog new tricks. A good first step would be to introduce a great security tool into an existing process. For example, introduce static source code analysis by adding it to the end of your automated build process. The initial ramp up cost is low, the change in process churn is low, but the value can be very high.
