Benefits of KPI

How does the KPI help

The Defect Injection Rate KPI helps in identifying the number of defects introduced during the development process, which can help in improving the quality of the product and reducing the cost of fixing defects in later stages. It also helps in tracking the effectiveness of the testing process and identifying areas for improvement.
