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

Answer Posted / 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
