Improved Sharing Index

We improved the way we calculate the Sharing Index! The Sharing Index is a metric designed to assess how well your team collaborates on code reviews. It quantifies the distribution of reviews across your team members and considers factors that promote fair and active participation. By analyzing the distribution of reviews among submitters and the participation of reviewers, it provides a score from 0 to 1. A higher score indicates well-distributed reviews and active involvement from all team members.

NEW Team Insights

The improved Team Insights Report provides a comprehensive summary of your teams' recent activities, enabling you to understand their performance and progress better.

In the snapshot section of the "Team Insights Page" you will now see:

  • The selected team's Cycle Time;
  • The selected team's Work Heatmap;
  • The selected team's total number of commits;
  • The selected team's Pull Request Activity;
  • The selected team's Most Active Pull Requests.

Custom Metrics 2.0

We are excited to announce Custom Metrics 2.0! This update allows engineering leaders to tailor their metrics according to their unique needs. With Custom Metrics 2.0, you can create these metrics from Waydev's metrics or connect to other tools via our API, allowing you to track a wider range of data points beyond Waydev's default metrics.

New: Detect Releases via Repository Tags

Waydev has updated its features to improve how you track deployments and calculate DORA Metrics. Alongside the existing methods of identifying deployments—through merged Pull Requests into a specified branch or via the Waydev API—we've now added the ability to use GitHub repository tags.

New: Undo merges

To improve the user experience when merging engineer profiles, we've introduced an 'Undo previous merge' button. This feature allows you to quickly revert the last merge action if you realize a mistake was made immediately after merging. 


Updated Design for the Contributor Insights Report

The "Performance" tab on the "Contributor Insights" page has been updated with a refreshed design. 

The performance tab includes an overview of the selected contributor's performance in a selected time frame compared to the average of a selected team. For each metric, you can see the value for the selected time frame, the evolution (%), the percentile bar, and an evolution graph.

Updated Filters

We’ve updated our filters! We've made these changes to simplify your navigation and help you find what you need faster.

How to Use:

  •         Pick an Application: Start by selecting the application you're interested in.
  •         Choose the Teams: Then, choose teams within that application and click "Apply"

❗️ It's mandatory to configure your applications and ensure teams and repositories are assigned to them. Without this step, you won't be able to view any data. Learn how to do that here.

Configure Ticket Projects

You can now configure ticket projects for all ticketing integrations: Jira, Azure Boards, and ClickUp, to ensure real-time and accurate data on ongoing sprints. This update enables you to use the following reports:

  • Resource Planning, which provides insights into your resource allocation and utilization.
  • Project Costs, which offers a clear view of how much you spent on each epic


Supporting Kanban

The Velocity Report supports both Scrum and Kanban methodologies.

When operating on a Scrum board, you have the additional option to select specific Sprints. Conversely, when navigating a Kanban board, the system provides access to the tickets.

To ensure clarity and ease of navigation, the Velocity Report automatically adjusts the page title to reflect your chosen board type.
