Ugh. I haven’t worked with an independent QA team in 15 years or so; testing is the responsibility of the dev team and there are test engineers on each team to facilitate that.
Maybe this is a difference of building a product vs contracting? We have to keep what we build running for years; there is no turnover to a client where can declare the system “done”.
As for redefining agile, I’ve done no such thing. The agile manifesto calls for working software. It calls for collaboration. Avoiding knowledge sharing amongst team members and throwing software over the fence to a remote test team are both counter to that goal (in my experience).
