In this episode, I interview with Joe Stump, cofounder of Sprintly (https://sprint.ly), to give the startup perspective to development and testing.

Joe has spent his career in startups.
He’s also been involved with hiring and talent acquisition for several startups.

We talk about testing, continuous integration, code reviews, deployment, tolerance to defects, and how some of those differ between large companies and small companies and startups.

Then we get into hiring. Specifically, finding and evaluating good engineers, and then getting them to be interested in working for you.

If you ever want to grow your team size, you need to listen to this.
