Disclaimer, I work for LinearB. Shout out to @Olivier Kouame for starting up this channel! I'm very curious about people's perception of #metrics in Engineering. You need measurement to understand the impact of the changes you're making, so what are some key metrics your teams are bought into? The ones I typically highlight are: • Cycle Time - measures the lifespan of a single unit of work • Lead Time - measures the Cycle Time of Ideas (I stole this from someone much smarter than me) • Merge Frequency - merging devs are happier devs • MTTR/MTTD - this only works if you have tight discipline around incident management (shameless plug for Courtney Nash's Dev Interrupted pod recently)
