I think product risks outstanding is super crucial, surprised it's not more highlighted!

Wait, are we sure compliance to entry criteria is that relevant?

I recall a practice question where product risks were highlighted as key metrics, so I’m leaning towards that option for monitoring quality.

Compliance to entry criteria seems important, but I feel like it might not give a complete picture of product quality.

I think tests run and tests passed is a common metric, but it might not capture the overall quality as well as some of the other options.

I remember discussing how defects found versus defects expected can really show the product's quality, but I'm not entirely sure if it's the best choice here.

I'm a little confused by this question. There are a few different quality metrics mentioned, and I'm not sure which one would be the most appropriate. I'll have to review my notes and think this through step-by-step.

Option A seems like the clear winner to me. Monitoring defects is the best way to track product quality, rather than just looking at tests passed or compliance to entry criteria.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'm trying to decide between A and E. Product risks seem important for quality, but defects found versus expected might be the more direct metric. I'll have to think this through carefully.

This seems like a straightforward question about quality metrics. I think the best option is A - defects found versus defects expected, as that directly measures product quality.

Compliance to entry criteria? What is this, a beauty pageant? I'll take 'tests run and tests passed' any day.

Well, if I was a defect, I'd much rather be 'expected' than 'found'! Option A for me.

I was leaning towards E, since product risks are a key indicator of quality. But I suppose that's more focused on risk management than pure quality metrics.
