Trend Indicators use linear regression to detect if metrics are going up, down, or staying stable.

• New Bugs Trend: Increasing means more bugs are being reported each week
• Backlog Trend: Increasing means open bugs are accumulating faster than they're being resolved

Hotspot Detection identifies components with significantly increasing customer bug reports:

• A Hotspot is flagged when recent weeks show >50% more bugs than earlier weeks
• Severity Mix Shift alerts you when Critical+High bugs are becoming a larger proportion
