Overall Objectives Provide holistic view of bugs that the team is working on Provide visibility into progress of open bugs Identify areas where resources are over/under-utilized Enable resource managers to set expectations with business users and re-prioritize when necessary
Why custom solution? Arguably not a business critical system Well accepted process of bugs updates with Google internal system No licenses No time for large-scale implementation Minimal investment Fun experiment
