What is Test Metrics? and what are the different types of test metrics?..

Answer / lakshmi

Test Metrics means set of techniques whose aim is to
measure the quality of a computer program.
Most metrics in software quality assurance fall under one
of two categories, product metrics and process metrics.

Product metrics are for describing characteristics of
product such as it’s size, complexity, features, and
performance. Several common product metrics are mean time
to failure, defect density, customer problem, and customer
satisfaction metrics.

Process metrics are strictly for evaluating & improving the
effectiveness of development and maintenance processes.
Some common process metrics are defect arrival pattern,
backlog management index, fix quality, and fix response
time metrics

What is Test Metrics? and what are the different types of test metrics?..

Answer / jeevan reddy

The term used to describe a measurement of a particular
attribute of a software project is a Software Metric.

QA recognize two subsets of Software Testing Metrics:
-Test Process Metrics
These measures provide information about preparation for
testing, test execution and test progress.
They don’t provide information about the test state of the
product and are primarily of use in measuring
progress of the Test Phase.
-Test Product Metrics
These measures provide information about the test state of
the product and are generated by test
execution and code fixes or deferment. Using these metrics
we can gauge the products test state and
Indicative level of quality, useful for product release
