Introduction to Cycle time dashboard
Simply put, the cycle time dashboard helps you identify bottlenecks and pain points by tracking PR cycle times.
Cycle Time is among the most widely tracked metrics among engineering teams and a great way to identify bottlenecks in the development process.
Since cycle time begins at the time of coding and ends with deployment, it gives a complete and holistic view of all the steps in the process, what’s working, and what’s not.
