   What's the role of documentation in QA?

Critical.
(Note that documentation can be electronic, not necessarily paper.) QA
practices should be documented such that they are repeatable.
Specifications, designs, business rules, inspection reports,
configurations, code changes, test plans, test cases, bug reports, user
manuals, etc. should all be documented. There should ideally be a
system for easily finding and obtaining documents and determining what
documentation will have a particular piece of information. Change
management for documentation should be used if possible.
