Valve Software is the development studio behind the hit game Portal, as well as Half-Life 1 & 2, Team Fortress 2, and the soon-to-be-released Left 4 Dead. In this interview with Gamasutra, Chet Faliszek (the writer for Left 4 Dead) talks about Valve's approach to playetesting and its importance in helping deliver a quality final product. Apparently, Valve often begins playtesting their games as little as 1 week into the development cycle.
