Metrics used in testing

  1. Test Coverage: This metric measures the percentage of code that has been executed during testing. It helps to identify gaps in test coverage and ensure that all parts of the code have been tested.
  2. Defect Density: This metric calculates the number of defects found per thousand lines of code. It helps to track the quality of the code and identify areas that are more prone to defects.
  3. Test Case Pass Rate: This metric measures the percentage of test cases that pass successfully during testing. It indicates how effective the test cases are in identifying defects.
  4. Time to Detect Defects: This metric measures the time taken to identify and report a defect from the moment it was introduced in the code. It helps in assessing the efficiency of the testing process.
  5. Test Execution Time: This metric measures the time taken to execute a set of test cases. It helps in optimizing the testing process by identifying bottlenecks and inefficiencies.
  6. Test Automation Coverage: This metric measures the percentage of test cases that are automated. It helps in increasing test efficiency and reducing manual effort in testing.
