Abstract
In an example embodiment, an intelligent plug-in is provided for a software project management tool that facilitates automated capture and review of key performance indices (KPIs) in order to meet the quality needs of each workstream. This added automation, however, can be technically challenging due to a variety of factors, including the number of disparate systems from which KPIs need to be captured and the desirability of adding customized KPIs. The intelligent plug-in accesses a library of KPIs, but also enables a quality lead to define new KPIs and/or customize quality KPIs from the library. The quality lead is also then able to set thresholds for each KPI from within the plug-in. Upon movement of a user story within the software project management tool to a 'development completed' or similar state, an automatic review of all defined KPIs for the corresponding user story are reviewed.
