Tell me that you don't have a test suite without telling you don't have a test suite

Why are programmers so arrogant? They do have unit tests, and a dedicated test team. Refactoring can and does introduce bugs. It's a fact.

Frankly, if your test suite isn't catching 95% or more of the bugs, there's a problem with the test suite and if uat aren't catching 95% or more of the remainder, there's a problem with uat

How solid is the unit test coverage? What about regression tests? If you get new bugs creeping in all the time, your bug-catchers aren't doing their job

Yeah, I've said that before. I don't think they have enough regression tests, and unit tests.
