   How can Software QA processes be implemented without stifling productivity? 

By
implementing QA processes slowly over time, using consensus to reach
agreement on processes, and adjusting and experimenting as an
organization grows and matures, productivity will be improved instead
of stifled. Problem prevention will lessen the need for problem
detection, panics and burn-out will decrease, and there will be
improved focus and less wasted effort. At the same time, attempts
should be made to keep processes simple and efficient, minimize
paperwork, promote computer-based processes and automated tracking and
reporting, minimize time required in meetings, and promote training as
part of the QA process. However, no one - especially talented technical
types - likes rules or bureacracy, and in the short run things may slow
down a bit. A typical scenario would be that more days of planning and
development will be needed, but less time will be required for
late-night bug-fixing and calming of irate customers
