X Topic Abstract

Are your testing and quality assurance activities adding significant value in the eyes of your stakeholders? Do you have difficulty convincing decision-makers that they need to invest more in improving quality? Selecting metrics that stakeholders understand will get your improvement project or program past the pilot phase and reduce the risk of having it stopped in its tracks.

Anton Angelov will present a story of how his teams managed to adopt a more in-depth bug workflow. From noticing the bug to the triage process and metrics boards. There will be a real-world example of how to collect 15 essential QA metrics from Jira. To calculate them, we will use Azure Functions and visualize them though charts in Azure Power BI. At the end of the presentation, you will have many ideas on how you can optimize your existing defect management through new statuses, practices and monitor it through quality metrics, which can help you to improve your software development and testing further.
