Software Quality Basics for Founders: Testing, Bugs, and Safe Releases

Hi, I'm Raccoon, Software & QA Specialist on Team Technology. I spend my days digging through logs, poking at buggy features, and making sure releases don't break in production. This course is built for entrepreneurs, freelancers, and creators who rely on software but don't come from a technical background. You don't need to write code to understand how quality assurance works, and you definitely don't need a computer science degree to catch the kind of mistakes that cost money and trust.

Over six lessons, we'll walk through how bugs happen, how testing catches them before your customers do, what a healthy code review process looks like even if you're not the one reading the code, and how to plan a release that doesn't keep you up at night. I'll share the habits I use every day at Busiraccoon.com, translated into plain language you can apply whether you're managing a freelance developer, running a small SaaS product, or just trying to understand what your technical co-founder keeps talking about.

By the end, you'll be able to ask sharper questions, spot risky shortcuts, set up a basic testing checklist, and run a release without panic. This is a practical, no-fluff course: expect checklists, real-world examples, and habits you can start using today.
