CODING JAG - Issue 67

Welcome to the 67th edition of Coding Jag brought to you by TestMu AI!👐

There are many options for test automation metrics, and while they each serve a specific purpose, it’s important to understand why you’re testing in the first place. Once you define the goal and metrics to track, make sure you understand and explain it correctly to everyone so that they can contribute in achieving the testing goals.

If used consistently as part of your overall strategy, quality metrics can help you identify trouble spots and make adjustments before they become bigger problems. You can use these quality metrics for test automation to get a better idea about the effectiveness of your automated tests, the speed of delivery, and the quality of features being delivered.

This issue of Coding Jag discusses the ten quality metrics that can help you decide whether your automation is successful or not and much more. 👇
