A
Live Defects
B
Escaped Defects
C
Cycle Time
D
Story defects
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Typically, those issues are found by end users after released version has made available to them. The metrics Escaped Defects Found counts number of new escaped defects found over period of time (day, week, month).

Detailed explanation-2: -You can evaluate the defect escape rate by monitoring the number of defects found in the pre-production phase and comparing it to the production phase. This constitutes the defect escape rate.

Detailed explanation-3: -The defect escape rate metric is used to identify the rate of issues identified after a software program is in production, referred to as the defect escape rate. A higher defect escape rate is an indication that there is an issue with the testing processes or the automated testing tools being used.

Detailed explanation-4: -Escaped Defects tracks the number of defects for a deployment that were identified after the release date (i.e. by customers using the product). As such, this metric counts the number of defects that evaded the QA and testing process during software development.
