[xwiki-users] [Proposal] Statistics

Hello everyone, If you’re wondering what kept the QA team busy during the last few days, the answer is a lot of testing and a brainstorming effort in order to devise a series of statistics for the product, which would be featured with the product version 6.2. We believe that the statistics ought to be implemented for the following reasons: a) They would allow for better communication between us and the community b) Each version would be more easily evaluated this way c) The product’s evolution would be more easily observable by tracking the changes in these statistics from one version to another d) A more complete overview on the long-term evolution of the product would be possible, with an opportunity to analyze a series of items in detail We consider some of the above-mentioned items to be quite important. Here is a list of the most important ones: - No. of downloads - No. of active installs - No. of tests executed / added - Jira issues fixed - by resolution, by priority, by type - Jira issues opened - by priority, by type - Closed vs open tickets - Stats for important tags: e.g. ie10, mobile, flamingo - Stats for major features: e.g. flamingo, extension manager, solr - Top overall issues reporters - Top non-XWiki SAS issues reporters - Extensions quality: issues reported (top 10 extensions) - Extensions quality: issues closed (top 10 extensions) - l10n translations: existent, missing - Performance stats Therefore, your opinion on the following issues would be of great use to us: a) The list offered a number of items that we deem important for our measurements and assessments. We would like to know whether you agree with the list and we would like to have your opinion regarding other items that we would consider inserting in the list? b) Where would you like us to publish the statistics and the conclusions that would result from their analysis? We were thinking about the following: - On a ‘Project Health’ page - On a page designated to each product version (each version would have its own page with statistics) - In the test.xwiki.org - Within a blogpost - A mix of the above We await your reply and feedback regarding the viability and usefulness of our proposal. Thank you for your time -- Andreea Zenovia Popescu QA Engineer @XWiki SAS
