Metrics for Evaluating the Performance of Software Tester and Testing Team

Abstract

The major determining factor of software quality is the effectiveness of testing. The reliability of software project delivered depends on the performance of the individuals in charge for testing the software. Individual testers diverge in their effectiveness and efficiency. The factors contributing to this difference have not been so far well studied. There are no standard methods for assessing the performance of software testers presently. Even there are no assessment criteria or metrics for evaluating the performance of software tester or software testing team. Literature survey reveals numerous different human-centric factors that have to be considered. However, the comparative prominence of these factors is unknown. In this paper few metrics were defined for measuring the performance of software tester and software testing team.
