In many IT organizations, Quality Assurance (QA) staff are not dedicated to projects, but are "shared resources" supporting many projects simultaneously. Vast armies of QA staff execute defined scripts to test and certify an application once development is complete. Because they lack application familiarity and test only at the end of the development lifecycle, QA staff require significant execution support, and the feedback they provide is late in coming and often inaccurate. By comparison, on Agile projects, QA staff are dedicated team members.
