Metric reports

Project Metrics can generate several HTML reports of metrics. The reports are automatically placed in the default report directory. Plain text reports create a single HTML file, whereas reports with pictures go into a single MHT file. The report settings in Project Analyzer have no effect on these reports.

Reports for the current page

The following reports take the data currently displayed by Project Metrics. By selecting the data in the view you get different reports.

Charts on current page

This report creates two charts for each metric currently in the view. It's slow when there is a lot of data. Select less data in the view to make the report faster to create.

Correlation analysis

The Correlation analysis report calculates correlation coefficients and regression equations for the metrics currently displayed. More about correlation analysis

Status and limits reports

Project status

The Project status report provides an executive summary of a project. It is intended for project managers. Project status report sample

Compare project status

This is the Project status report for two projects or two versions of the same project.

Limits report

This report lists all metrics for which you have defined limits. If you have selected the limits called <Require comments>, for example, it lists commentation metrics and how your project fares. For each metric, it lists the number of problematic cases, the number of total cases and the problem percentage (problematic/total).

Use the Limits report to determine the quality of your program compared to the benchmarks you have set. Limits report sample
