1 About Heartbeat

Heartbeat is a tool for tracking project delivery metrics that can help you get a better understanding of delivery performance. This product allows you easily get all aspects of source data faster and more accurate to analyze team delivery performance which enables delivery teams and team leaders focusing on driving continuous improvement and enhancing team productivity and efficiency.

State of DevOps Report is launching in 2019. In this webinar, The 4 key metrics research team and Google Cloud share key metrics to measure DevOps performance, measure the effectiveness of development and delivery practices. They searching about six years, developed four metrics that provide a high-level systems view of software delivery and performance. Based on that, Heartbeat introduce below metrics as below.

8 metrics supported by heartbeat:

  1. Velocity
  2. Cycle time
  3. Classification
  4. Rework
  5. Deployment Frequency
  6. Lead Time for Changes
  7. Pipeline Change Failure Rate
  8. Pipeline Mean Time To Recovery

2 Support tools

Here is the user manaul for Version 1 on 2020/06. For now, we just can support Jira/Buildkite/Github to generate the corresponding metrics data.

Type Board Pipeline Repo
Support tools Jira √
Trello ×
Buildkite √
Teamcity ×
GoCD ×
Github √
Bitbucket ×

Note: “√” means can support, “×” means can not support

3 Product Features

3.1 Config project info

3.1.1 Config Board/Pipeline/Source data

Before generator the metrics data, user need to config the project info, in Home page (Image3-1), you can create a new project for your project, or you can import a project config json file (If you already saved one config file, for import file feature will introduce in “Import and Export feature ”).

Image 3-1
Image 3-1,home page

3.1.2 Config search data

If you are first use the product, you need to select “Create A New Project”,it will go to config page (Image 3-2)

Image 3-2
Image 3-2,Project config page

Users need to select at least one period of time, and users can click the “New time range” button to add up to 6 periods, and then multiple corresponding data reports will be generated on the report page.

Note: Charts will be generated only by selecting at least 2 time periods.

Have three items of time period:

  1. Regular calendar: If you select this item, it means calculated metrics will exclude the weekend.
  2. Calendar with Chinese holiday: If you select this item, it means calculated metrics will exclude the weekend and Chinese holiday.
  3. Calendar with Vietnam holiday: If you select this item, it means calculated metrics will exclude the weekend and Vietnam holiday.

All need to select which data you want to get, for now, we support seven metrics data (Image 3-3). Those eight metrics are Deployment Frequency (DF), Lead Time for changes (LTC), Mean Time To Recover (MTTR), Change Failure Rate (CFR), and Velocity, Cycle time, Classification,Rework.

Image 3-3
Image 3-3,Metrics Data

3.1.2.1 Date picker validation rules

User can not select future time in calendar (both start time & end time). The max date interval between start time and end time is 31 days (e.g. 01/01/2024 - 01/31/2024).

Invalid dates may be, e.g. future dates, interval between start time and end time is more than 31 days, end time is before start time, etc. If users select an invalid date, a warning will be popped up.

Users can click the sort button to sort multiple periods of time in ascending or descending order.

3.1.3 Config project account

Because all metrics data from different tools that your projects use. Need to have the access to these tools then you can get the data. So after select time period and metrics data, then you need to input the config for different tools(Image 3-4).

According to your selected required data, you need to input account settings for the respective data source. Below is the mapping between your selected data to data source.

Required Data Datasource
Velocity Board
Cycle time Board
Classification Board
Rework times Board
Lead time for changes Repo,Pipeline
Deployment frequency Pipeline
Pipeline change failure rate Pipeline
Pipeline mean time to recovery Pipeline

If only Lead time for changes is selected among the four DORA metrics - Lead time for changes, Deployment frequency, Pipeline change failure rate, and Pipeline mean time to recovery, you will see another option Other in the pipeline tool configuration. If you choose the Other option, when calculating Lead time for changes, only the PR lead time will be considered, and pipeline lead time will not be calculated.

Users can expand the date picker to see all the time periods they selected.

3.2.1 Config Crews/Board Mappings

Image 3-9
Image 3-9, Crews/Board Mappings config

Crew Settings: You could select your team members from a list get from board source. The list will include the assignees for those tickets that finished in the time period selected in the last step.

Cycle Time: It will list all columns for the current active jira board. Then users need to map the each column to the supported columns. Like, if your board have “in progress” column, it means developer doing this ticket, so it should be mapping with “In Dev” for the list we provide.

Status Description
To do It means the ticket needs to be done, waiting for Dev to pick it. Cycle time doesn't include this time.
Analysis BA or other people still need to analyze the ticket. Cycle time doesn't include this time.
Design UX or other people still need to design the prototype.Cycle time doesn’t include this time.
In Dev It means dev is doing the ticket. This time should be a part of cycle time. And it is named development time.
Block It means the tickets blocked by some issues, cannot be done now. This time should be a part of cycle time. And it is named block time.
Waiting for testing It means waiting for Dev to pick or QA to testing. This time should be a part of cycle time. And it is named waiting time.
Testing It means QA is testing the tickets. This time should be a part of cycle time. And it is named testing time.
Review It means PO or other people are reviewing the tickets. This time should be a part of cycle time. And it is named review time.
Waiting for deployment it means that the ticket has passed the test and is waiting to be deployment. This time should be a part of cycle time. And it is named waiting for deployment time.
Done It means the tickets are already done. Cycle time doesn't include this time.
-- If you don't need to map, you can select --

By Status: user can click the toggle selected button to choose the mapping relationship by column or by status. It support multiple status map in to one column, just as the picture shows the TODO and INPROGRESS board status can be mapped to different heartbeat states.

3.2.2 Setting Classification

Image 3-11
Image 3-11,Classification Settings

In classification settings, it will list all Context fields for your jira board. Users can select anyone in distinguished by form filed to get the data for them, and anyone in visible in charts form filed to generate chart. And according to your selection, in the export page, you will see the classification report and chart to provide more insight with your board data.

3.2.3 Rework times Setting

Image 3-12
Image 3-12,Rework times Settings

In Rework times settings, it contains Rework to which state Input and Exclude which states(optional) Input. The options in the Rework to which state Input are all from Board mappings, the options are ordered, and when an option is selected, the rework information of the option and all subsequent options will be counted in the report page and export file. The Exclude which states(optional) Input can help you exclude certain subsequent options (image 3-7).

3.2.4 Setting advanced Setting

Image 3-13
Image 3-13,advanced Settings

In advanced settings, it contains story points Input and Flagged Input. Users can input story points and Flagged custom-field on their own when the jira board has permission restriction . And according to these input, in the export page, user can get correct story points and block days

how to find the story points and Flagged custom-field?

  1. user need to go to the jira board and click one card , then open dev tool switch to network part.
  2. then click card's history part.
  3. at that time, user can see one api call which headers request URL is https://xxx.atlassian.net/rest/gira/1/ .
  4. then go to review part, find fieldDisplayName which show Flagged and story point estimate and get the fieldId as the custom-field that user need to input in advanced settings. from image 3-13 and 3-14 we can find that flagged custom field is customfield_10021, story points custom field is customfield_10016.

3.2.5 Pipeline configuration

Image 3-19
Image 3-19,Settings for Pipeline

They are sharing the similar settings which you need to specify the pipeline step so that Heartbeat will know in which pipeline and step, team consider it as deploy to PROD. So that we could use it to calculate metrics.

Items Description
Organization The organization for your pipelines
Pipeline Name Your pipeline name
Steps The pipeline step that consider as deploy to PROD
Branches Your selected branches
Crew setting Your selected author from github
3.2.5.1 Crew setting

The data source of crew setting is Github code committer. Heartbeat will list distinct code committers for those builds of the selected periods. And the value of code committer is the GitHub username.

If builds were manually/scheduled triggered or could not find code committer from Github, Heartbeat will mark as "Unknown" in crew setting.

3.2.6 Source Control configuration

Image 3-19
Image 3-19,Settings for Source control

They are sharing the similar settings to pipeline configuration

Items Description

3.3 Export and import config info

3.3.1 Export Config Json File

When user first use this tool, need to create a project, and do some config. To avoid the user entering configuration information repeatedly every time, we provide a “Save” button in the config and metrics pages. In config page, click the save button, it will save all items in config page in a Json file. If you click the save button in the metrics page, it will save all items in config and metrics settings in a Json file. Here is the json file (Image 3-16)。Note: Below screenshot just contains a part of data.

Image 3-20 Image 3-20, Config Json file

3.3.2 Import Config Json File

When user already saved config file before, then you don’t need to create a new project. In the home page, can click Import Project from File button(Image 3-1) to select the config file. If your config file is too old, and the tool already have some new feature change, then if you import the config file, it will get some warning info(Image 3-17). You need to re-select some info, then go to the next page.

3.4 Generate Metrics report

After setup and configuration, then it will generate the heartbeat dashboard.

Users can switch dates to view the dashboard for the corresponding time period. And users can switch between dashboard and chart by clicking on Chart and List button.

chart view

In report chart page, heartbeat provide a better visualization on delivery and below are two chart screenshot for board and dora metrics respectively.

  • Board chart Image 3-22-1 In the classification chart of the board chart, you can click the switch button to reverse the chart. the reversed chart will show the sum of each legend in all time periods. Image 3-22-1 In the classification chart of the board chart, you can click the button of Value/Cards count or Value/Story point to see the relative data. Image 3-22-1

  • Dora chart Image 3-22-2

Heartbeat chart enable customer to drill down dora metrics to specific pipeline by selecting from pipeline/step dropdown.

Within chart, Heartbeat also provide trend indicator which represent last two periods comparison result. The trend indicator includes three key points:

  • Color: From delivery perspective, Green means healthy, Red means unhealthy
  • Trend direction: Increased or decreased compared between last two periods
  • Value: Changed value in percentage format

Below trend indicator means that Velocity is pretty health between 2024.5.13-2024.5.27 and 2024.4.29-20204.5.12. And the Velocity increased 268.75%. Image 3-22-2 Below trend indicator means that development time ratio is not so unhealthy between 2024.5.13-2024.5.27 and 2024.4.29-20204.5.12. And the development time ratio decreased 23.17%.

3.4.3 Classification

It will show the classification data of Board based on your selection on Classification Settings in metrics page. The percentage value represent the count of that type tickets vs total count of tickets.

  • Classification: provide different dimensions to view how much efforts team spent within selected time period.
  • for example: spike cards account for 17.65% of the total completed cards

Image 3-25
Image 3-25,Classification Report

3.4.4 Rework

  • Definition for ‘Rework': cards roll back from a later state to a previous state, for example, one card move from 'testing' state to 'in dev' state, which means this card is reworked.
    • Influenced factors
      • Collection date type (exclude weekend & holidays)
      • Selected board crews
  • Formula for 'Total rework times': the total number of rework times in all done cards
  • Formula for 'Total rework cards': the total number of rework cards in all done cards
  • Formula for 'Rework cards ratio': total rework cards/throughput

It will show the rework data of board on your selection on Rework times settins in metrics page (image 3-21).

If "to do" is selected in the "Rework to which column", we will count the number of times the subsequent options in the options are reworked back to the "to do" state.

      • if the PR merge time is a non-working day, such as weekends or holidays, we will treat the non-working days in the PR merge time as working days.
      • the first code committed time is calculated the same way as the PR merge time
    • if no PR or revert PR: PR lead time = 0
  • Formula for ‘Pipeline lead time':

    • if PR exist: Pipeline lead time = Job Complete Time - PR merged time

3.7 Caching data

In HeartBeat tool design, we have a cache setting for verify jira & pipeLine & gitHub config function and pipleLine loading function and generate report function.

  • For Jira/Buildkite/Github data: TTL for cache -> 90 seconds
  • For holiday data:TTL for cache -> 5 minutes

4 Known issues

4.1 Change status name in Jira board setting when there are cards in this status

As an administrator of the jira board, if you modify the workflow to change the status name, it will affect the calculation of duration for cards in that status. Considering the potential loss of duration, changing the status name can lead to loss of precision in cycle time calculation for related cards.

5 Instructions

5.1 Prepare for Jira Project

For Classic Jira users, before you use this tool, you need to do some settings for the jira board. Otherwise, you cannot get the data. Here are the steps you need to do:

10 Pipeline Strategy

Now, Heartbeat uses GitHub Actions and BuildKite to build and deploy Heartbeat application.

But there is some constrains, like some pipeline dependency.

So, committer should pay attention to this flow when there is some pipeline issues.

	sequenceDiagram
  actor Committer
  participant GitHub_Actions as GitHub Actions
  participant BuildKite

	Committer ->> GitHub_Actions : Push code
	Committer ->> BuildKite : Push code
  loop 30s/40 times
    BuildKite->> GitHub_Actions: Check the basic check(all check before 'deploy-infra' job) has been passed
    GitHub_Actions -->> BuildKite: Basic check has passed?
    alt Yes
      BuildKite ->> BuildKite: Build and deploy e2e env
      Note over BuildKite, GitHub_Actions: Some times passed
      loop 30s/60 times
        GitHub_Actions ->> BuildKite: Request to check if the e2e has been deployed
        BuildKite -->> GitHub_Actions: e2e deployment status, if the e2e has been deployed?
        alt Yes
          GitHub_Actions ->> GitHub_Actions: Run e2e check on GitHub actions
          Note over BuildKite, GitHub_Actions: Some times passed
          GitHub_Actions -->> Committer: Response the pipeline result to committer
          BuildKite -->> Committer: Response the pipeline result to committer
        else No
          GitHub_Actions -->> Committer: Break the pipeline
        end
      end
    else No
      BuildKite -->> Committer: Break the pipeline
    end
  end
