In the long run having a test suite saves time and money for any project. In practice most small to medium size client projects are delivered without testing. Why?

With another Drupal Camp Colorado in the books, this month we'll look back on what we learned from 2017's camp and get ready for 2018. Camp organizers want to hear from you, the attendees, about what worked and what can be made better. One topic of a lot of discussion has been "getting off the Drupal island", and working together with other local technology communities. Another has been reaching out to higher education, and helping students make career essential contacts in the industry. We look forward to hearing everyone's ideas, and are excited to get to work on next year's camp!

Let's face it - every project isn't perfect. You make the perfect project plan, you execute with excitement, and before you know it you've completed 50% of the work with 20% of the work remaining. How do you manage the 30% gap? At first thought, you may want to ignore the overage and cross your fingers that somehow everything will be just fine.
