Compliance to entry criteria? What is this, a beauty pageant? I'll take 'tests run and tests passed' any day.

But don't you think monitoring defects found versus expected gives a better indication of the product's quality?

Well, if I was a defect, I'd much rather be 'expected' than 'found'! Option A for me.

I was leaning towards E, since product risks are a key indicator of quality. But I suppose that's more focused on risk management than pure quality metrics.
