Glossary

We use the following terms to describe GitLab analytics:

• Mean Time to Change (MTTC): The average duration between idea and delivery. GitLab measures MTTC from issue creation to the issue's latest related merge request's deployment to production.
• Mean Time to Detect (MTTD): The average duration that a bug goes undetected in production. GitLab measures MTTD from deployment of bug to issue creation.
• Mean Time To Merge (MTTM): The average lifespan of a merge request. GitLab measures MTTM from merge request creation to merge request merge (and closed/un-merged merge requests are excluded). For more information, see Merge Request Analytics.
• Mean Time to Recover/Repair/Resolution/Resolve/Restore (MTTR): The average duration that a bug is not fixed in production. GitLab measures MTTR from deployment of bug to deployment of fix.
• Velocity: The total issue burden completed in some period of time. The burden is usually measured in points or weight, often per sprint. For example, your velocity may be "30 points per sprint". GitLab measures velocity as the total points or weight of issues closed in a given period of time.
