Should a buyer expect (1) error handling routines, (2) coders to follow coding conventions? Do these need to be explicit in the specs? Should the buyer expect the coder to do some simple testing to make sure the program doesn't crash before sending it to the buyer? I've placed a few bids on this site. I'm never really sure how much detail to go into with the specs. Clearly more is better. I'm just trying to get a handle on the quality aspect.
