systems design rather than abstract classification games, helps reason
about problems around testing much more productively.

As I mentioned above this is meant to be the introduction to a short
series of posts. In the next issues I will cover:

* Describe a testing pipeline involving multiple teams that suffers many
of the pathologies described above, based on real examples that I have
found in the wild. I will model these pipelines as an actual system
and show how this gives us a much better understanding of what we can
do to improve the situation.
As I mentioned above this is meant to be an introduction to a short
series of posts about testing software. The next posts will be practical
applications of a systems perspective:

* Analyze a testing pipeline with multiple teams involved, which suffers
many of the pathologies described above. It will be based on real
examples that I have found in the wild. I will model these pipelines
as an actual system and show how this gives us a much better
understanding of what we can do to improve the situation.
* Show concrete interventions that can be implemented, from the
individual team level to the larger organisation, and use our model of
the system to observe and measure the impact. I will also try to
reference real work done in some of the companies I've worked with.

I'm curious about how people design their own testing pipelines,
challenges they find, and useful patterns so feel free to share them.
challenges, and useful patterns, so anything you want to share will be
very welcome.
