Software Testing Metrics
Testing software is just one part of the team’s job. Measuring quality and making the right decisions is another. TestRail helps with both so that you can meet your quality goals and your schedule.
Generate meaningful measures of effectiveness and quality
Why software testing metrics matter:
Software testing metrics are important for many reasons. Most importantly, they are decision points that lead you to take action. The metrics you choose determine how effective those actions are in improving your quality level.
Software testing metrics also help you judge how efficient your testing efforts are and how productive your test team is. How many test cases are added for new release? How many tests pass in the first run, how many failed and require a retest? Which bug reports were filed in each cycle?
