Expected Value Roulette

The real QA metrics

Testers, QA engineers, project managers and software engineering theorics try to match the concept of quality metrics with Something close to the real world, so we Have bugs per line of code (even if Not all lines of code Are created equal, as if equal Were python to assembler), functional bugs per point, total bugs per man-hour ... add to this is if blocker / normal / cosmetic, and so on. QA Metrics Are, Until now, very evasive to Become Widely adopted. Then my good friend
Nahualito Following discovered the document, deeply buried in a darkened web site:



WTFs / minute
Neat, clean, measurable. Add a 2x multiplier if the end user on WTF Happens, 2x if a crasher.

Love this.
