SAME STATS, DIFFERENT IMPROVEMENTS

@programming

After 12 months of managing #bugs, #developers A, B, and C changed their approach.

Assuming a steady flow of bugs of the same kind, whose change is an improvement❓

Boosts appreciated! 🙂 :boost_love:

More generally, the problem is domain independent.

@LabPlot @programming I'd say its difficult to tell without at formal statistical assessment, but if I had to pick, i'd say B. The difference between pre and post in A is just a continuation of a pre=existing trend. The difference in C looks like it might be reverting to mean over time, or even getting worse than it was prior to the change if the study went on longer.

@IanSudbery @programming

Assuming a steady flow of bugs of the same kind, we share the same line of reasoning.
