Then there is the problem that all this was based on someones estimates. And stuff gets cut to allow the project to meet the targets. And testing is one of the favorite things to get reduced. After all, we programmers write bug free code, don't we?

But, I think we are getting off the topic.
... And then they decide that Marketing should be one of the stakeholder and we are no longer talking scope creep but scope explosion.
