Episode 9: Key Metrics for Better Testing
Description
In this episode, we delve into the principles of holistic testing and the whole-team approach, emphasizing the importance of creating an environment where every team member feels empowered and takes ownership of their work. We discuss strategies for accurately estimating project timelines and explore how Google employs “dogfooding” — testing products internally before releasing them to external customers.
We also highlight the significance of fostering a continuous-learning mindset within your team. Finally, we explore how the “Goal-Question-Metric” approach can be used to identify the metrics that genuinely matter for your projects.
Join us to learn how to build a culture of empowerment, continuous improvement, and effective measurement in your software development and testing processes.
