As a software developer, here's an inside secret for you guys: QA is really hard.
+1 to this too. QA is hard, I have been involved in software dev and testing for over 20 years. But really this type of thing is easy to catch... there useless and cheap for a product this large. All you need is to do is a few basic things;
1) snapshot database (base)
2) In 1.07, buy/sell, cancel and perform a bunch of transactions etc on AH.
3) snapshot 1.07 data base (DB post transactions 1.07)
4) revert to base snapshot
5) Patch 1.08
5) In 1.08 repeat same transactions as 1.07
6) snapshot 1.08 data base (DB post transactions 1.08)
7) Compare database and make sure any differences are as expected
If they did this half the problems they have would not occur.
