Did you know that all Metrics are live and drill-able?

Quick short "Did you know?" posts describing some of the cool features we've built into Zephyr, and maybe a quick tip or two.

Did you know that all Metrics are live and drill-able?

Yup. All our charts, summaries and data tables are out-of-the-box, as in you don't have to set them up or build reports or execute queries. They are ready to go when you are. And they are updated live without any refreshing of screen needed. So imagine for a minute that you have 10 testers distributed all over the world working on a test execution cycle. And you have this "Test Case Execution Progress, by User" screen open. Now every time any of these testers update the execution status of a test case to "Pass" or "Fail" or "Blocked" or "Work in Progress", your chart, summary and data table automatically get updated with that information. No refesh needed. No getting everybody to update their status, collating that information and building daily reports. Your status reports are always ready with totals, averages, percentages - all calculated for you.

What makes it even more compelling is that you can drill-down on each of these charts to many levels to get the next level of data, again live. So your status reports are ready, all the time. Now if that is not a time saver, we don't know what is :-)

Enjoy!
