As the TAE, you are working with the organisation's Test Manager to decide which external metrics and which internal metrics should be gathered for the new TAS.
Which of the following represents the BEST internal metric that would help measure the quality of the TAS and the number of problems associated with the TAS?
The best internal metric to measure the quality of the Test Automation System (TAS) and the number of problems associated with it would be a measure of defect density within the TAS automation code. This metric directly indicates the presence and frequency of issues within the automation code itself. It allows the team to assess and improve the quality of the automation, ensuring that it is reliable and effective in identifying defects in the System Under Test (SUT). Other options, while useful, do not directly measure the quality or the problems within the TAS automation code.
Alternative C seems correct.
