In my last job (engineering manager for a Japanese high-Quality hardware manufacturer), we were expected to deliver software that works.

In fact, if any bugs were found by the official "last step" QA Department, we (as a software development department) were dinged. If QA found bugs, they could stop the entire product release, so you did not want to be responsible for that.

This resulted in each software development department setting up their own, internal "QC team" of testers. If they found bugs, then individual programmers (or teams) would get dinged, but the main department would not.

Our software got a lot of testing.
