The Overview section of the People report provides a high-level summary of all the people involved in any tasks during the selected period. It highlights key metrics to help you quickly assess overall activity and individual contributions.

Overview indicators for people in the Testlio platform.

Indicator

What It Tracks

What Signals It Might Bring

Total People

The total number of unique individuals involved in any tasks during the period. Automatically compares with how many people were involved during the prior period.

Changes in this number can signal shifts in team engagement, scaling efforts, or adjustments in task allocation.

Average Tasks per Person

The average number of tasks started by a person during the period. Automatically compares with the average number of tasks started in the prior period.

To be included, tasks need to be started within the period but don't need to have been completed within the period.

This metric offers insights into workload distribution and productivity.

  • A higher average may suggest efficient task distribution or increased workload.

  • A lower average could point to under-utilization or opportunities to improve engagement.

Total Tasks

The total number of tasks started during the period. Automatically compares with the number of tasks started in the prior period.

To be included, tasks need to be started within the period but don't need to have been completed within the period.

This metric offers a measure of overall activity volume.

  • An increase may indicate expanded scope or heightened activity.

  • A decrease could signal reduced workload or a need to reevaluate task complexity.

Total People vs. Tasks per Person

A visual comparison of the total number of people and the average number of tasks per person over time.

This indicator enables deeper dives into allocation needs.

  • Increases in both metrics may indicate scope expansion.

  • Imbalances (one metric being substantially higher than the other) could highlight opportunities to optimize task assignments.
