How to calculate testing productivity?

Answer

Testing Productivity specially test case creation and
execution productivty is a tricky thing. Overall testing
productivity has many other things to consider. My question
is - Will you take test cases as part of your true
productivity measure which are not correct i.e which did
not pass the review or which failed during execution due to
incorrect steps or associated data? Certaily not.Again the
effort that goes in reviewing test cases should also be
accounted. I feel this should be calcluated as follows:

Test Case Creation or Execution Productivity = (No. of
Correct Test Cases Created or Executed) / (Total Effort in
Person-hours in creation or execution)

Effort-> test case creation and review effort + test
execution effort and test results review effort
