What QA metrics are useful and which ones are misleading?

Answer

Useful metrics measure outcomes: - Defect escape rate - Time to detect/resolve - Flaky test rate - Coverage of critical flows Misleading metrics: raw bug counts or test case counts without context. Focus on improving reliability and user experience, not vanity numbers.
