Scorecard - CI/CD Glossary Definition

A scorecard measures a service against org standards, coverage, security, pipeline health, so teams can see and close gaps.

A scorecard is a set of automated checks that grade a service against standards (test coverage, pipeline health, security scans, ownership) to track maturity over time.

Scorecards turn best practices into measurable, visible signals, often shown in a developer portal beside each service.

In CI

A CI-related scorecard check might verify that a service pipeline runs tests, uploads coverage, and passes a security scan on every pull request.
