When providing a software solution to a customer, it’s possible to focus on the wrong aspects, and to be swept up in concepts and metrics unimportant to the customer. Customers care about the relevancy, personalization, and quality of results.

The customer and our employees are human; we need to be mindful of this, and treat them in a empathetic manner.

- It’s ironic that we measure our performance based on quantitative metrics rather than on quality.
- Often, software testers focus all of their attention on the number of bugs instead of rather than on functionality.
