#Risk

A multi-tab bug that looked like a one-off defect turned out to be a design assumption the product had outgrown. Why I argued for fixing the model, not just the bug, and how to raise that kind of risk.

Most release risk I've dealt with wasn't a software defect. It was environment differences, unclear ownership of manual steps, late changes and rollback plans nobody had tried. What I learned preparing a high-risk platform migration.
