Answer / ravikanth.m
Measurement is fundamental to any engineering discipline
Why Metrics?
- We cannot control what we cannot measure!
- Metrics helps to measure quality
- Serves as dash-board
The main metrices are :size,shedule,defects.
In this there are main sub metrices.
Test Coverage = Number of units (KLOC/FP) tested / total
size of the system
Test cost (in %) = Cost of testing / total cost *100
Cost to locate defect = Cost of testing / the number of
defects located
Defects detected in testing (in %) = Defects detected in
testing / total system defects*100
Acceptance criteria tested = Acceptance criteria tested /
total acceptance criteria

metrics represents as belows
No.of test cases design per day
No.of defects findout per day
No.of test cases are executions per day
Reviews etc...
Metrics are 6 types
1) Stability Trend Chart.
2) Defects for Module
3) Defects for Tests
4) Test Coverage
5) Defects for KLOC
6) Defects for Testing Environment

metric is a mathematical number that show the relationship
between two variables.
software metric is a measure used to quantify the
software,software development resources and software
development process.
the are two types of metrics.
process and product metrics.
path tested=no of paths tested/total no of paths.
an important software metric is total no.of defects found
in system internal testing against the no of defects found
in the user testing.
