KPI Name and brief

Rationale for capturing the KPI

Tools

Definition

Configurations

The KPI has 2 data points

  1. Defect count without story link - Tagging defects to stories is a good practice as it helps in requirement traceability and enables the team to optimize regression testing effort for every release

  2. Test cases without story link - Tagging test cases to stories empowers the team to track the coverage of execution cycle (both manual and automation)

JIRA/Zephyr/XRay

# of total defects without Story link: Count of all open defects that have been raised in the last 15 months

# of total non-regression test cases without story link

Defect Reopen rate

The widget should show

  1. Reopened /Total

  2. Reopen Rate

  3. Avg. Time to Reopen

JIRA

Defect Reopen Rate measures number of defects reopened out of the total number of defects raised.

Backlog Readiness

The widget shows

  1. Ready backlog in terms on issues and Story Points

  2. Backlog strength

  3. Readiness cycle time

JIRA

Backlog Readiness KPI compares the total size of ready Product Backlog items (PBI) against the average velocity of last five sprints to ascertain if enough backlog items are always available for the team to start development. It also calculates the average time taken for Backlog items to be ready for development

*When filters are applied, the Ready backlog and average cycle time will change on the filters. Backlog Strength will become '-'

Refinement Rejection Rate

The widget is a line graph which shows data for last 5 months.

Each month user gets to see.

  1. Total stories

  2. Accepted stories

  3. Rejected stories

JIRA

Refinement Rejection Rate measures the percentage of stories rejected during refinement as compared to the overall stories discussed.

Workflow status needs to be added in these 3 fields under mappings

  1. Ready for refinement status

  2. Accepted in refinement status

  3. Rejected in refinement status

Product defects ageing by priority

The KPI measures the effectiveness of Defect Backlog prioritization and is useful for Product Owner, Scrum Master and the development team

JIRA

This groups all open production defects that are created in the last 15 months by standard ageing buckets - <1 Month, 1-3 Month, 3-6 Month, 6-12 Month, > 12 Month.

These defects can be filtered based on 'Priority'.
