Metrics for test environment management

Test bed provisioning time: The duration spent provisioning a test environment including all supporting infrastructure and data saturation. This metric indicates inefficiencies in the overall test bed provisioning process. Measure the time difference between the start of provisioning to when the environment is confirmed as ready to run a test case.

Test case execution time: The duration taken to run a test case or a suite of test cases. Faster test execution speeds indicate efficient test environment and execution management which allows for rapid iterations and feedback. Improve this metric by optimizing test bed provisioning, ensuring efficient resource allocation, and parallelizing test runs. Measure the timestamp difference between the start and end of test case execution.
