What is the difference between PRs Open and PRs Ready to Review or Merge

PRs Open

Definition: "PRs Open" is a throughput metric that counts the total number of PRs that were opened for review during a specific time period you select.

Time Dependency: This metric is tied to the selected timeframe. It includes all PRs opened within that period, even if they have already been reviewed and merged.

You can find this metric in Cockpit, Dashboards, Activity, Dev360, and set Goals for this metric.

PRs Ready to Merge or Review

Definition: "Ready to Review" and "Ready to Merge" are filters used on the Pull Request screen to display only those PRs that are currently open, meaning they have not yet been reviewed or merged.

Time Independence: These filters is not bound by any timeframe. It dynamically shows all PRs still awaiting review or merge, regardless of when they were created.
