Measuring ...

roman_oks says : Hi all,

Do you have practice in measuring developers work? If so, then what indicators do you use?

Thanks in advance.

I could sum up some things, but I'd rather you have a look at this article:

Navigating with project metrics: Are we there yet?

I love it. :cool:

Hope it helps.
Cheers

Jgrahamartifact says : We use

Quality of Code (# defects created per project)
Task Completion (Hours worked vs. Hours Scheduled)
Requirements Completion (# of Requirements completed vs Project Schedule)

The key it to use a management tool/system that combines all of your project management tools in one database driven application: plans, requirements, test cases, cycle results, defects, time sheets, change mgmt, issue tracking, doc libraries, mini wikis, etc.

If you think you might be ready for that level of detail its easy to get, check out the free Lighthouse Pro software development management (SDM) system to see if it would help you obtain the metrics you need.
