DevOps performance improvement tools for a fast-changing software delivery environment

As teams rapidly evolve and adopt GenAI tools, understanding and augmenting productivity has never been more critical. Intelligent analytics track and drive productivity improvement across a fast-changing SDLC, and our Four Pillars of Productivity dashboards help to keep track of this.

Focus
Chevron

Track whether your effort is laser FOCUSED on planned, value creating output like roadmap – and that you are limiting time spent on unplanned bug fixing, whilst also managing technical debt.

Speed & Productivity
Chevron

Track and drive speed and productivity of value delivery through key metrics like Lead Time to Value, Cycle Time and Deployment Frequency – core to any continuous delivery improvement tool.

Predictability
Chevron

Choose from key metrics and related analytics to improve the building blocks of dependable teams – able to consistently deliver sprints and epics to timelines.

Quality
Chevron

Track and drive the quality and security of your delivery process (through metrics like Commits without a Pull Request) and track and improve quality of output – with intelligent analysis of bugs and defects.

Process change and efficiency
Chevron

Understand and augment the impact of GenAI tools on your delivery process. See how tools like GitHub Copilot are being adopted and the impact they are making. Identify how their impact on productivity can be augmented.

Create custom DevOps dashboards from the widest engineering metrics library anywhere

Tailor delivery improvement dashboards to reflect your specific performance goals - across Agile, DevOps, and continuous delivery workflows.

Strategic priorities

Backlog & capacity

Delivery efficiency

DevOps capability

Key knowledge risks

Operation & technical debt

Sprint effectiveness

Is our finite resource focused on our strategic priorities?

Value Stream

Keep track of how value, throughput and resource is allocated across your strategic roadmap initiatives, lines of business, portfolio or value streams.

Opex/Capex

Quickly analyse how your delivery is allocated across Capex and Opex.

Delivered Story Points (SP)

Look across your portfolio to analyse how velocity and work items are delivered by work stream, programme, team and so on.

Delivered Value Points (VP)

Maintain a close eye on the value delivered to users, whether you use value points or a nominal business value estimate.

Stories by epic

See which Epics your teams are actively working on to track progress and ensure they align with priorities.

Is our backlog healthy and are we utilising capacity efficiently?

Story Points (SP) ready for Dev

Do you know how much runway your teams have? Ensure utilisation is high and teams aren’t stuck staring at one another.

Design time

Optimise the time it takes to design and groom new work so the team has plenty to do and lead time is as short as possible.

Backlog distribution

If a team is running low on work, it’s critical to understand where new work currently sits upstream in order to fully assess the risk of running out of work.

How efficiently are we working to deliver key work?

Flow efficiency

Quickly identify and alleviate “waste” in your delivery. Spot capacity issues, poor collaboration and/or process inefficiencies that are holding your teams back.

Epic flow

Track the delivery of the underlying work items (e.g. stories) to ensure your Epics are flowing efficiently through to delivery.

Fix version flow

Get a bird’s eye view of your releases across teams. Ensure that any bottlenecks are quickly spotted and resolved.

First Time Pass Rate (FTPR)

The ability for stories and tasks to pass “first time” is down to strong collaboration and communication within teams. One of the strongest measures of a health team.

Code cycle time

Make dramatic improvements to Cycle Time by dissecting your Pull Request (PR) review process. Analyse how long it takes to review, approve, merge and deploy code.

Speeding

A team’s board plays a central role in their decision making, so it’s critical to understand how well boards reflect reality through tracking unwanted ticket shepherding habits.

Lead time

Time to market is driven by the ability to transform an idea into functioning software for users, and Lead Time enables you to dissect every stage of this process to ensure you’re operating at your full potential.

Cycle time

The focal point for most development teams, Cycle Time enables you to examine your engineering and DevOps capability to ensure you can build and ship code as quickly as possible.

How well are we delivering and how is our DevOps capability evolving?

Deployments

Track the number and/or frequency of deployments as a key indicator for your maturing DevOps capability. Understand which pipelines are performing well and which pipelines need some support.

Build fail rate

Understand how frequently your builds are failing and particularly which pipelines are most plagued by failures in order to focus the team’s attention in the right areas.

Flaky PRs

Cross-reference your git and build data to quickly identify which of your files are often the cause of build failures.

Mean build time

Quickly spot which build processes are lagging and may require optimisation to ensure your teams can keep building and testing software.

Failed build time

When builds fail, they need to fail fast so the impact is kept to a minimum. Restructure your build processes to frontload complexity.

Time to recover from failed build

How quickly can the team recover from a failed build? Understanding and minimising this downtime is critical to building a strong DevOps capability and service within your organisation.

Build costs (CCI)

CircleCI customers need to understand where their spend is allocated, particularly how much is being spent on failed builds so they can optimise their spend. A great way to ensure you’re getting as much value as possible from CircleCI.

How are our engineering practices and are there key knowledge risks?

Ticket complexity

Through connecting your commits and tickets, discover which of your stories, bugs, etc are the most complex based on a number of factors including repos touched, developers involved and lines of code changed.

Commits without Pull Requests (PRs)

Mitigate risk in your code base by ensuring all merges to master/trunk have been reviewed and approved through the PR process.

Commit frequency

Drive up best practice around smaller, more frequent commits. A great metric to gamify within your teams.

PRs w/o ticket ref

Whether a regulatory requirement or just best practice, ensure that all pull requests reference back to the ticket outlining the scope and authorisation of changes.

Created Pull Requests (PRs)

Analyse PR activity across your code base, and gain further insights around understanding which of your stories, bugs and so on are currently most active.

Code knowledge

Build a better understanding of relationships in your team, who works most frequently together and whether you have any potential risks of knowledge being consolidated in a small number of senior devs.

Ticket commit hotspots

Filter commit activity in your code base so you can isolate the files and repos most touched when delivering new stories or resolving bugs.

How well are we responding to operational issues and technical debt?

P1/P2 resolution

Understand how quickly bugs are being resolved, and where in the process there are opportunities to improve your resolution times.

Bug backlog

Maintain a close eye on your current bug backlog, and break down the data by release, environment or a number of other fields that will improve your understanding of your bug backlog.

Escaped defects

Isolate the number of defects that have escaped your testing process and landed with users in production. Optimise your test scripts where reasonable to improve test coverage and product quality.

Are we planning and running our sprints effectively?

Sprint target

A team’s ability to plan and deliver the sprint objectives is critical to meeting mid- and long-term commitments. See how well your teams deliver against their targets for each sprint.

Sprint flow

Whether preparing for a stand-up or reviewing in a retro, get a day-by-day breakdown of how your work flows from “to do” to “done”. Identify and remedy any bottlenecks as they happen and improve your sprint performance.

Sprint scope

Scope change is one of the major headaches for Scrum teams. With this metric, you can track exactly which tickets are being added and removed every day to ensure the team stays on track.

Sprint goals

Stories, bugs, and tasks are great, but ultimately it’s about distilling a sprint down to 2-3 overall goals and measuring how effective teams are at delivering them.
