Defect Status Trend Report

This article provides on overview on Defect Status Trend Report in Agility.

Overview​

The Defect Status Trend report breaks out defects in a project or release by status value (e.g., Ready for Dev, Developing, Develop, Ready for Test) and tracks them over a period of time.

Use this graph to track the growth in the number of defects and the progression of defects through to resolution.

The status values in this report can be customized to meet your organization's internal needs. Members with an Admin Privileges role of System Administrator, can make the changes by modifying the Workitem Status List Types (Click the hamburger menu Hamburger icon > Administration > List Types > Backlog > Backlog Status).

The status values may also vary depending on the Workspace settings for your selected project.

Accessing This Report​

  1. Click the hamburger menu Hamburger icon > Reports > All Reports.
  2. In the Testing or Quality Reports section, click Defect Status Trend.

Prerequisites​

All Digital.ai Agility trend reports require at least two data points. If not enough data is available, the report may be blank. Depending on the duration you select in the filters, at least one complete period of data must be available to draw a trend line. When selecting days, this means that the minimum duration is actually 2 days, which will include 2 data points.

Your Show Weekend report settings may affect how much data is selected. For example, if you choose two days as duration and one day is a Saturday or Sunday, and you have elected to not Show Weekends, then you may not have sufficient data to show a trend.
