1 Test Coverage

Test coverage is a metric that shows how much of your code or functionality is tested by your test cases. It can be measured in different ways, such as by lines of code, branches, statements, or requirements. Test coverage helps you identify gaps or risks in your testing process, as well as areas that need more attention or optimization. You can use tools like code coverage tools, test management tools, or traceability matrices to calculate and track your test coverage.

3 Defect Removal Efficiency

Defect removal efficiency is a metric that shows how many defects are detected and removed before the code or product is released to the customers or end-users. It can be calculated by dividing the number of defects removed before release by the total number of defects found before and after release. Defect removal efficiency helps you assess the cost and value of your testing process, as well as the customer satisfaction and reputation of your code or product. You can use tools like defect tracking tools, test management tools, or release management tools to calculate and track your defect removal efficiency.

5 Test Case Effectiveness

Test case effectiveness is a metric that shows how well your test cases or suites are able to detect defects in your code or product. It can be calculated by dividing the number of defects found by the test cases or suites by the total number of defects found by all sources, such as testing, reviews, inspections, or customer feedback. Test case effectiveness helps you evaluate and improve the quality and relevance of your test cases or suites, as well as the reliability and usability of your code or product. You can use tools like defect tracking tools, test management tools, or test design tools to calculate and track your test case effectiveness.

6 Test Automation Rate

Test automation rate is a metric that shows how much of your testing process is automated by using tools or scripts. It can be measured in different ways, such as by percentage of test cases, test steps, test hours, or test coverage. Test automation rate helps you determine and optimize the balance between manual and automated testing, as well as the return on investment and maintenance cost of your test automation. You can use tools like test automation tools, test management tools, or code analysis tools to calculate and track your test automation rate.
