Problem
Scenario
You've changed an engineering process and want to know whether it actually made the team better. The change may affect speed and quality on different timelines, so a single headline metric can give the wrong read.
Question
How do you know if a process improvement actually improved quality or throughput?
What this tests
- Choosing the right KPI set for engineering process changes
- Separating leading indicators from lagging indicators
- Diagnosing whether throughput gains came with hidden quality costs
- Using decomposition to avoid misleading averages
