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

Answer / radhika
Metrics is a mesurement.The aim of this one is to measure
the quality of the application.
it represents the final out come of the testing
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

Metrics is the collection of measurements to assess the
actual performance and to suggest or come up with ideas to
meet the potential performace in all activities and for
resources involved in the testing life cycle or release or
for certain duration.

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.
