specified.> Understandability - The readability of
the document.> Volatility - The rate and time within the
life cycle changes are made to therequirements.> Traceability - The traceability of the
requirements upward to higher leveldocuments and downward to code and tests.
Thus Normal Test Related Metrics are:
> Quantity of tests Prepared / Performed> Quantity of Defects found> Type of Defects found
> Time taken - To Plan, Develop and Timetaken - To Plan, Develop and Execute tests> Cost of defect management; bug Cost of
defect management; bug Reporting, fixingand re-testing reporting, fixing and re-testing
> THE COST OF TESTING - THE COST OFTESTING - OR NOT TESTING OR NO Testing atall.
Thus the Test team activity metrics are for:
how long to:
> Plan stage or phase of testing> Write the Test systems Design> Prepare Test environment and develop
utilities.> Prepare test scenarios, scripts, data
and expected results> Write automated test scripts> Execute tests for each significant stage
of testing.> Raise Defect reports and manage issues> Retest fixed defects.
Thanks.

A Test Metric is a standard means of measuring some attribute of the
software testing process. They are a means of establishing test progressagainst the test schedule and may be an indicator of expected futureresults. Metrics are produced in two forms Base Metrics and DerivedMetrics.
Example of Base Metrics:# Test Cases# New Test Cases# Test Cases Executed# Test Cases Unexecuted# Test Cases Re-executed
# Passes# Fails# Test Cases Under Investigation# Test Cases Blocked# 1st Run FailsTest Case Execution Time# Testers

Test metrics is a process for analyzing the current level of maturity whiletesting and predict future trends, finally meant for enhancing the testingactivities which were missed in current testing will be added in next build toimprove or enhance the Testing Process. e.g. Adding a testcase which atester found was missed during current testing, when a next build comes forregression the missed testcase will be added first thus enhancing the
testcase document.
