Your OKR template

This OKR targets improving the efficiency and quality of software development in an IT company. The first objective is to reduce software bugs by 15% through the implementation of automated testing tools, ensuring strict code reviews and enhancing training on coding standards.

The second objective is to augment unit test coverage to 85%. This is to be achieved by pinpointing areas with insufficient coverage, creating more comprehensive tests for those areas, and through regular reviewing and updating of tests to ensure continued relevance.

The third objective focuses on boosting the overall effectiveness of code reviews by 20%. Steps to ensure that include necessitating peer review sessions, utilization of automated code review tools and refining the guidelines for code reviews for better clarity.

Together, these objectives aim to create a more effective and efficient software development process, reducing bugs and ensuring the code is as robust and clean as possible.
