Measures reported by GitOrgTest

Organizations are shared accounts where businesses and open-source projects can collaborate across many projects at once. Owners and administrators can manage member access to the organization's data and projects with sophisticated security and administrative features. Organizations include:

  • A free option, GitHub Team for Open Source, with unlimited collaborators on unlimited public repositories.

  • The option to upgrade to GitHub Team or GitHub Enterprise Cloud for additional features, including private repositories, sophisticated user authentication and management, and escalated support options.

  • Unlimited membership with a variety of roles that grant different levels of access to the organization and its data.

  • The ability to give members a range of access permissions to your organization's repositories.

  • Nested teams that reflect your company or group's structure with cascading access permissions and mentions.

  • The ability for organization owners to view members' two-factor authentication (2FA) status.

  • The option to require all organization members to use two-factor authentication.

Using this test, administrators can instantly identify how many public members, teams and outside collaborators are in each organization of the target GitHub account. This test also sheds light on the issues recorded in the repositories in each organization. This helps administrators to identify the organization that has more number of open issues and take essential measures to resolve them in time.

Outputs of the Test: One set of the results for every organization created.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Members Indicates the number of public members in this organization. Number  
Team Indicates the number of teams in this organization. Number  
Out_collaborator Indicates the total number of outside collaborators added to repositories in this organization. Number An outside collaborator is a person who is not explicitly a member of the organization, but who has Read, Write, or Admin permissions to one or more repositories in the organization.
Projects Indicates the number of Projects created in this Organization. Number  
Issues Indicates the number of issues reported in the repositories in this Organization. Number

If more number of issues are left unsolved in an organization, it may impact the reliability and data integrity of the repositories in the organization.

Compare the value of this measure across the organizations to find out which organization has more number of issues.
Hooks Indicates the number of webhooks created in this Organization. Number Webhooks allow you to build or set up integrations, such as GitHub Apps or OAuth Apps, which subscribe to certain events on GitHub.com. When one of those events is triggered, a HTTP POST payload will be sent to the webhook's configured URL. Webhooks can be used to update an external issue tracker, trigger CI builds, update a backup mirror, or even deploy to a production server.
