Understanding and Modifying Keypup’s Metric Documentation

​In the realm of software engineering metrics, it's not uncommon for individuals who didn't create a particular metric to struggle with understanding how it has been calculated, why it matters, and how to improve it. This lack of clarity can hinder effective decision-making and impede progress within an organization. That's why documenting metrics is key to ensuring that everyone involved has a comprehensive understanding of the metric's purpose, calculation, and potential areas for improvement.

In this article, we’ll show you how to access and modify your metrics’ documentation.

1. To access any metric's documentation, click on the question mark (?) button located next to the insight title.
