CI statistics for GitHub actions

Question

I'm in the process of migrating to GitHub Actions and I'm looking for some way to get statistics on my GitHub workflows like

• The average time it takes to build
• The build success rate
• The average time it takes to run tests
• How all of these values change over time

I'm not finding anything in GitHub that provides these types of insights. Is there something out there or do I have to home grow something?

Answer 1

Nothing like this exists in GitHub unfortunately. Insights will give you PR and merge statistics, but not build times or such. This would have to be implemented with a 3rd party tool or self-built.
