One-Step Build: Done!

AND NOW we're getting closer and closer to Joel's idea of a perfect software team ;-) 1. Do you use source control? yes
2. Can you make a build in one step? yes
3. Do you make daily builds? In a few days
4. Do you have a bug database? yes
5. Do you fix bugs before writing new code? yes
6. Do you have an up-to-date schedule? weekly
7. Do you have a spec? No, except for large features.
8. Do programmers have quiet working conditions? Sure
9. Do you use the best tools money can buy? Oh, yes
10. Do you have testers? jep
11. Do new candidates write code during their interview? yes
12. Do you do hallway usability testing? Not yet If you want to learn more about the Joel-Test: 12 Steps to Better Code visit: http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/fog0000000043.html
