There are ways to determine quality. One pretty standard way is to count the number of bugs found during testing each phase of development (design, coding, unit test, product test, integration tests and after its in production).
Those can be valuable metrics, but finding and fixing a lot of bugs can't improve the innate quality of the item under development/test. In other words, you can't test quality into the product.
