Description: Test metrics are quantitative measures used to evaluate the quality and effectiveness of testing processes in software development. These metrics allow development and quality assurance (QA) teams to gain a clear view of the software’s status, identify areas for improvement, and make informed decisions. Metrics can include, among others, defect rates, test coverage, test execution time, and resource utilization efficiency. By analyzing these metrics, teams can optimize their testing processes, ensuring that quality standards are met and minimizing risks associated with software releases. In the context of methodologies such as DevOps, Behavior Driven Development (BDD), Test Driven Development (TDD), Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD), software testing, and Agile methodologies, test metrics play a crucial role in continuous improvement and delivering high-quality software.
