Which of the following is a component of a quality management plan that measures values of the output?

Quality metrics are the specific attributes or data points, such as defect density, test coverage, or customer satisfaction scores, that are defined to quantify and measure the quality of deliverables. These metrics provide objective values against which actual output quality can be compared.

Quality assurance focuses on ensuring that the processes used to produce deliverables are effective and will result in the required quality, rather than directly measuring output values.

Quality control is the process of monitoring specific project results to determine if they comply with relevant quality standards and identifying ways to eliminate causes of unsatisfactory performance, which utilizes metrics but is not the metric itself.

A quality baseline establishes the acceptable quality standards for a project, serving as a reference point for measurement, but it does not perform the act of measuring the values of the output.
