In this week's episode of Coding QA, Mark and Jim continue last week's conversation with Fede and discuss his experiences with the following at Atlassian:

 

• Atlassian's boot camp for new employee on-boarding
• Learn company's culture and values
• Blur discipline lines from the start
• Know each discipline's activities
• Everyone presents an idea to help the company
• How do projects with no testers succeed?
• How did Atlassian get into this situation?
• What makes it work?
• Testers acting as teachers
• Do testers really have special skills that make them good testers?
• Are discipline specific engineering roles the right approach?
• Team wide bug bashes – it’s not just QA
• Where's Fede headed next?
