This has not happened before

 

This can't be happening to me. The system will be in production in two weeks. No panic, no emergency meetings, not even acceptance test defects anymore. We must have forgotten something really important. This has to be a dream. Things like this don't happen in real world. Did we do something differently? Not really. Maybe we paid more attention to testing. It helped a lot but it alone didn't cause this. The most important thing was our team. It's nice to have a bunch of smart people working in the same team. Smart people are not afraid of asking questions. If they have opinions they usually are willing to share them. Good communication gives us a better chance to spot problems in our design and find better solutions. Little by little everybody understands how the system works and how different parts of the system work together.  The system might get a chance to succeed.
