Jan 9, 2020 at 15:03 comment added bob Hard question that may be important: could this be the reason the code was such a mess in the first place when you got it, from mismanagement and managerial-driven lack of focus on quality, rather than on developer incompetence? If so, you may not be able to fix this problem.
Aug 7, 2018 at 9:50 comment added fgysin The important point is really: nobody has time/budget to build software without testing it. It is not cheaper to leave out tests, and it does not use less time either.

Jul 27, 2018 at 17:36 comment added DarkCygnus @BernardDy If any, now that this post has more, better answers than the target you pointed out, I'd say that the target dupe should be reversed. Voted that other post as dupe of this one
Jul 27, 2018 at 14:44 comment added Lilienthal @Odysee Oof, you have my sympathies then. Consider adding that comment to your post, though I guess you've got plenty of input already and have decided what your next steps are.

Jul 27, 2018 at 13:22 comment added Odyssee @Lilienthal I actually tried that, it worked for like 5 minutes. The last things I tried was, going for a lunch with him to try to explain how software development actually worked. What requirements have to be met before going to production, with some well-known, relatively simple, applications as an example. This got waived away as unimportant, this is not how we work.

Jul 26, 2018 at 17:06 comment added HopelessN00b Have you pointed out that this why the last dev quit? Or, I guess, in general, what (if anything) have you actually said to your boss about his unreasonable deadlines?

Jul 26, 2018 at 14:15 comment added Lilienthal Have you tried turning the "such a smart developer as you" remark around by using those credentials and you're experience to explain why these deadlines are impossible? In other words, what have you actually tried before that had no effect?
