Natalya Rukol gave a presentation on defining and measuring quality at the XP days Ukraine conference in Kiev. She discussed why it is important to measure quality to avoid failures, make clear decisions, and continuously improve. Some key things to measure included product quality both externally through customer satisfaction and support tickets, and internally through testing results and bug rates. She emphasized measuring external quality first to ensure business priorities are met. Effective measurement requires preparation, automation, discipline, and using the plan-do-check-act cycle for continuous learning and improvement.
