Defects are the last of the Seven Wastes of Software Development.
The Seven Wastes were identified by Mary and Tom Poppendieck, the foreparents of Lean Software Development. It grew out of their efforts to understand and apply the principles of Lean Manufacturing to software engineering. Waste elimination is the essence of Lean’s archetype, the Toyota Production System:
All we are doing is looking at the timeline from the moment a customer gives us an order to the point when we collect the cash.
Task Switching is the sixth of the Seven Wastes of Software Development.

Waste elimination is critical to delivering value through software.
In the late 1940s, Toyota had a problem. Manufacturing was expensive, so prices were high. But the typical car buyer in Japan was light on cash. Reducing the cost of manufacturing was the only way to sell cars.
Mass production could have solved the problem, but Japan’s economy wasn’t large enough to create demand for thousands of cars. Toyota had to find another way, and they turned to Taiichi Ohno.
