It also seems that as firms get larger and the work load increases they loose something. Its like the day becomes a series of tasks (get this projects coding done, ok, on to the next unrelated project) and the overall view of the project is lost. This is why I like to handle a small amount of projects at a time and if I’m working with a team have them dedicated to the project. If you are ever looking to outsource some of your development work steer clear of the larger firms. You get much better work from small groups and individual freelancers. I agree.

I myself, being a web developer spend quite alot of time testing my work. unfortunitly I do not have the perks of a testing team at this stage, even if I did I would still keep my initial view. Ok, so I understand that time is money and it will seem more efficient for the company to hire a team of testers, on a substantialy less wage than to pay the development team. But I am sure that the cost on a whole for the entire process would be more efficient if they had passionate Developers.
