Zephyr automatically calculates and creates these high-level department-wide metrics:
Resource Distribution By Location
Resource Distribution By Project
Global Test Case Distribution
Global Requirements Distribution
The Resource Distribution By Location and Resource Distribution By Project metrics draw their data from the Resource Management application and automatically creates their charts.
The Global Test Case Distribution metric gives a department-level view of all the test cases that exist across all projects being undertaken in the department. This metric allows a user to drill-down to multiple levels within each project and also breaks it down by Manual and Automated tests.
The Global Requirements Distribution metric gives a department-level view of all the test requirements that exist across all projects being undertaken in the department. This metric allows a user to drill-down to multiple levels within each project as set up in the Requirements application.
Clicking on any metric shows the "Detailed Metric" view:
This check box allows a Test Manager to control whether a particular metric should show up in the Department Dashboard. This is typically used in conjunction with the Department Dashboard Management application.
