[j-nsp] What is your experience with the EX2200

[Saku Ytti]

Are we mandating that vendors test, are we monitoring that they do and
that it is working?

We can add to RFP requirements about test driven development, we can
ask quarterly reports about coverage and bugs opened in different
phases of testing and by customers. I.e. we can create financial
incentive to vendors to do proper testing.

As much as I'd like to bash vendors, most of them actually today (very
different story 5 or even 3 years ago) have considerable investments
on testing and reducing customer caught bugs. Lot of the work is only
materialising on newer release trains. So I do see light at the end of
the tunnel and I hope it's not the train.
