Avg Attempted Build	Average number of build attempted based on Build Count. Supported only for Microsoft Azure DevOps Service source.	(([Build Count] - [Successful Builds])/[Build Count])	>0
Avg Successful Builds	Average number of successful builds. Supported only for Microsoft Azure DevOps Service source.	([Successful Builds]/[Build Count])	>0, Closer to Build Count value is ideal

Build Stability Score %	Percentage of successful builds which are part of a job. Supported only for Microsoft Azure DevOps Service source.	[Successful Builds]/ [Build Count]	>0%, Closer to 100% is ideal
Estimated Build Duration (Secs)	Amount of time (seconds) estimated for a build to complete. Supported only Jenkins source.	Min([estimated duration])	>0
Tests Failed	The number of test cases that failed for a job build. The value reported is a roll-up or aggregate of all child builds. Supported only for Jenkins source.	Sum([automated test fail count]) {~}	>=0, Closer to 0 is ideal
Tests Failed %	Percentage of test cases that failed for a job build. The calculation includes test cases from child jobs. Supported only for Jenkins.	[automated test fail count] / [automated test total count]	>=0%, Closer to 0% is ideal
