Issue Trends

Issue Created Vs. Resolved - Cumulative report will show only QMetry issues. It will not display data for QMetry Projects that are synced with Jira Project.

Introduction

Issue Trends reports can be generated for multiple projects. You can view the details pertaining across project.


  • Project: Select project to generate the report for. Users can select more than one project on the list.
  • Release: Select release(s) on the list.
  • Date Range: Provide Start Date and End Date either directly typing in the field or using the calendar.
  • Select Issue Priority and Issue Type.
  • Click on the Search button.

Issue Created Vs. Resolved - Cumulative

The report displays a line chart that helps QA Manager visualize the trend in issue logging and issue resolving by testers over a period of time. It compares issues creation vs. issue resolved during the same period. Mere issue creation does not fulfill QA task, issues which are fixed by development team need to be resolved in the same pace to achieve equilibrium in the testing process.

The ideal graph should look like a burn down chart that indicates a narrow gap between the count of issue creation and issue resolution.

Configuration related to Resolved status is provided at project level to define issue status in which issue will be considered as "Resolved".

Configure Resolved status for issue from Projects > Project/Release/Cycle.

When multiple projects with different Resolved status configurations are selected to generate the report, it displays issue records for respective projects accordingly. The report is generated on the basis of the status you selected as "Default Resolved Status".


To view the count for Created Issues and Resolved issues, hover the mouse over corresponding lines.
