Find fix rate

About this report

The Find Fix Rate report displays daily counts of found (opened) and fixed (closed) defects for a selected sprint within a PI. This report can be used by Scrum Masters, team and QA managers, and QA/development staff to track defects during a sprint. It is beneficial to review the report with team members during daily standup and sprint review meetings. This report is generated by selecting a target PI and sprint.

4. Stories must be created and tied to a sprint.

How to interpret this report

The graph displays the following two lines:

• The black line shows the total count of defects fixed/closed on each day over the course of the sprint. 
• The blue line shows the total count of defects opened each day over the course of the sprint.

At the bottom of the graph, click the checkbox next to any of the lines listed above to toggle its display on the graph.

This report is a quick way to appraise the quality of the product mid-sprint. Generally, defects found mid-sprint should be rectified as soon as found, or at least by the close of the sprint. Preferably, the two lines should match each other closely on the graph, showing that defects are quickly being fixed as soon as they are found.
