Test KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) are metrics used to measure the effectiveness of testing activities. They provide insights into the quality of software products and the efficiency of testing processes.
Common Test KPIs include:
- Test Coverage: The percentage of requirements or code covered by tests.
- Defect Density: The number of defects identified relative to the size of the software.
- Test Execution Time: The time taken to execute tests during a testing cycle.
Using KPIs helps organisations evaluate their testing efforts, identify areas for improvement and make data-driven decisions regarding quality assurance practices.
