It wasnt broken, there was no reason to go find "other ways" to write and test code. Change isnt always good. I quit a shop that forced me to develop with that "agile" mentality. Its bass-ackwards and it produces crap. And these folks have been using it for quite some time, it wasnt as if they just adopted it. They had a fruity directory who was more interested in trees than he was in the state of confusion his development shop was in due to the continual miscommunication of agile. People will never learn. Change is only good for the one or two that initiate it - everyone else suffers. There is absolutely nothing wrong is structured, disciplined software development.
